Las Vegas Raiders 2020 NFL Draft prospect profile: Henry Ruggs III

The Las Vegas Raiders are likely to use a first round pick on the wide receiver group in 2020, and we take a look at Alabama product, Henry Ruggs III.

The Las Vegas Raiders problems at the wide receiver position have been discussed ad nauseam here at Just Blog Baby, but as we know, it is still a concern coming in to the draft. Draft pundits around the wide world of sports media are just as aware of this problem and as a result have linked the Silver and Black with just about every draft prospect in the books.

Some have the Raiders doubling up on receivers in the first round, others have them going offense-defense, and some have them ignoring the position altogether in the first round and taking advantage of the tremendous depth in this year’s class. The depth is reportedly the strength of this group as there is talent to be had in the later rounds but several players stand out for different reasons.

A few of the receivers stand out because of their production like Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb, their impressive size like Michael Pittman Jr of USC, or in the case of Henry Ruggs III, because of their incredible athleticism and eye-popping combine numbers.

Lets take a dive in Ruggs and see what else besides blazing speed that he brings to the table.
