2020 NFL Draft: Full grades for every 1st-round pick

Luke Easterling breaks down every first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, grading each selection

19. Las Vegas Raiders (from CHI)

Damon Arnette | CB | Ohio State

After filling their biggest need on offense earlier in the first round, the Raiders make a bit of a reach here to do the same on the other side of the ball.

Arnette drew tons of praise throughout this process from his teammate Okudah, and rightfully so, but passing up the likes of LSU’s Kristian Fulton, TCU’s Jeff Gladney and Alabama’s Trevon Diggs to take him in the top 20 is too rich for me.

Much like last year’s top-five pick, though, Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock take their man no matter what. Arnette will have high expectations at a premium position.
