10 potential Raiders draft targets whose stock rose at Senior Bowl
By Brad Weiss
Aaron Banks, OL, Notre Dame
Staying with the interior of the offensive line, the Raiders could decide to get rid of some of the veterans this offseason, free up some much-needed cap space. If they do decide to move on from Gabe Jackson or Richie Incognito, they could be in the market for a guard, and Aaron Banks is one of the best available.
Banks is fresh off an All-American season at Notre Dame and is likely ticketed for the second round. He had a terrific Senior Bowl week and could be the first guard off the board in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Demetric Felton, RB/WR, UCLA
One of the more interesting prospects during the Senior Bowl festivities was Demetric Felton, a running back who was converted from wide receiver during the 2020 college football season. He is another playmaker who could bring another dimension to this Raiders offense and is also a tremendous return man.
Running back and wide receiver are not huge needs in this draft, but based on his size, Felton could be available on Day 3. Las Vegas has a lot of decisions to make at wideout, and they need depth behind Josh Jacobs, so Felton could check off two boxes.

Tre Brown, CB, Oklahoma
Despite using a first-round pick at cornerback, and a second-round pick the year before, questions still loom in terms of the position group. There are some quality corners in this draft class, and with Gus Bradley coming in as the defensive coordinator, he is going to want to upgrade the spot.
Tre Brown from Oklahoma had a great Senior Bowl week and was named the top cornerback for the National team. He has a nose for the ball, hauling in four interceptions and breaking up 41 passes for the Sooners, and was a four-year starter.
