2020 NFL mock roundup: Raiders find an elite WR in the first round
By Nick Ellis
For the second year in a row, the Raiders will hold multiple first round picks, and here are the latest selections in recent 2020 NFL mock drafts.
The Oakland Raiders showed a ton of holes in the team in a Week 12 loss to the New York Jets, but the verdict on what positions the Raiders need hasn’t changed. All season long, the Raiders have had their issues at wide receiver, linebacker, and in the secondary, and that is certainly where they will target next April.
The Raiders improved a ton in last year’s draft, adding starters that have made an immediate impact all season long. The Raiders are a much better team than they were at this point last year, but they still have a ton of needs. Luckily for them, they once again hold multiple first round picks.
With a ton of draft capital that Raiders fans should be excited about, this is definitely a franchise trending on the right direction. In fact, they hold not only two first round picks, but five selections within the first 100 picks as well.
Let’s take a look at what some experts expect the Raiders to go for in the first round heading into Las Vegas.
