Clemson
Isaiah Simmons (S/LB)
Out of every player in the college football playoffs, this is the player I am most excited to watch. As a Raiders fan, Isaiah Simmons is the most exciting prospect in all of college football, and if the Raiders have a chance to get him, they should.
Simmons would immediately fix the Raiders linebacker issue, as Simmons is fast enough to cover receivers across the middle, big enough to cover tight ends, and is a great tackler. There is nothing that Simmons cannot do, and if you are someone who rarely watches college football, you are in for a treat.
Tee Higgins (WR)
The Raiders clearly need another wide receiver, and Tee Higgins would bring the type of speed, size, and athleticism that they are lacking. Higgins may not be the first option for the Raiders, but with how stacked this draft class is, do not be surprised to see him in Las Vegas next year.
Higgins will be one of many wide receivers to watch during the College Football Playoffs, as three of the four teams have potential first-round talent receivers on their team. Higgins can use his speed to create separation, his size to make contested catches, and we know that Gruden and Mayock love Clemson players. If Higgins shows out in the playoffs, the Raiders may just select him.
AJ Terrell (CB)
AJ Terrell is the least likely out of these three to be drafted by the Raiders, but his the thought of matching him up with his former teammate Trayvon Mullen is intriguing. Terrell is one of the best corners in all of college football and would be extremely pro-ready coming out of college.
Terrell can play well in both man and zone coverages, changes directions well, and has great physical attributes. Terrell will be matched up with the best receivers in all of college football during this playoff, and if he shuts them down, his draft stock will sky rocket.
