Round 3, Pick No. 83: Greg Eisworth, S, Iowa State

The Raiders could use more depth at safety, especially with the injuries and uncertainty at the position. Johnathan Abram was selected first round last year but went down with a season-ending injury.

Karl Joseph was playing well, but went down with a season-ending injury and is in his last year of his contract. If the Raiders end up without Joseph, Abram, or Harris at any point next season, the Raiders will need a solid player to fill their role.

Greg Eisworth is a solid safety prospect to keep your eye on, as he has the versatility to play both free, and strong safety at the NFL level. The Raiders have done a nice job adding talented defensive backs over the past 12 months, and Eisworth would be another weapon in the defensive backfield that the team would have control over for multiple seasons.
