The Las Vegas Raiders hit and missed during the 2021 NFL Draft, and here is what we can expect from those players selected in Year 2.
It has been over a year since the Las Vegas Raiders took part in the 2021 NFL Draft, a draft that netted them some special players. As rookies, guys like Tre’Von Moehrig, Nate Hobbs, and Divine Deablo flashed, while first-round pick, Alex Leatherwood struggled in a big way as the right tackle, eventually kicking inside.
When all was said and done, this is what the 2021 Raiders draft haul looked like:
2021 Raiders Draft picks
Round 1, pick 17: OT Alex Leatherwood
Round 2, pick 43: S Tre’von Moehrig
Round 3, pick 79: DE Malcolm Koonce
Round 3, pick 80: LB Divine Deablo
Round 4, pick 143: S Tyree Gillespie
Round 5, pick 167: CB Nate Hobbs
Round 7, pick 230: C Jimmy Morrissey
As you can see, Las Vegas hit the lottery with some picks, and some still need time to develop, but all in all, it was a refreshing group to bring in. Now, as this group enters the second season of their NFL careers, we take a look at what we can expect from those who still wear the Silver and Black.
We start with the second-to-last pick, Nate Hobbs, as Jimmy Morrissey is currently a member of the Houston Texans
