Las Vegas Raiders 7-round 2023 NFL Mock Draft: Early FA edition

824. . OL. Terrapins . Spencer Anderson. 214. player

You’ll notice that Spencer Anderson does not have an official position designation and that he is listed in this mock draft as just an offensive lineman. That is because he played all five positions at one point or another in his career at Maryland including center.

It’s unusual for a guy to do that especially as the different skill sets needed for playing on the outside versus inside can vary greatly. This lack of a true position may hurt Anderson’s draft stock a bit as he was all over the place but at the NFL level it can be a huge bonus as it shows off a high level of versatility.

Anderson looks the part of a tackle at 6-5 and 305 lbs though he may lack some of the elite athleticism needed to play on the left side of the line. He can slot in immediately as a swing tackle and if he bulks up a bit can move inside to play guard. He is definitely a developmental player but his versatility could be a huge asset in this position group.
