Las Vegas Raiders: Looking at five 2023 Senior Bowl standouts
Kyu Blu Kelly – Cornerback, Standford
We talked about Stanford already with wide receiver Michael Wilson, but on the other side of the ball, they had another standout performer in Kyu Blue Kelly. Kelly was voted the National team’s CB Practice Player-of-Week, voted on by the National team receivers. He got high praise from his peers and is another player that Patrick Graham, no doubt, had his eyes on.
Kelly was making plays on the ball all week and even had a pick-6 in a team scrimmage on day 2, along with another play in which is jumped a route but dropped another potential pick-6.
We highlighted Kelly in our preview of the Senior Bowl, so we only solidified our thoughts. The Raiders need serious help in the secondary and probably won’t be able to address it early, so a guy like Kelly on day 2 would be a solid option.
