The Raiders have waited a while to finally be on the clock with their pick at seven overall. Here is who went in the first six picks:
1. Carolina Panthers — Bryce Young, QB, Alabama
2. Houston Texans — CJ Stroud, QB, Ohio State
3. Houston Texans (via ARI) — Will Anderson, ED, Alabama
4. Indianapolis Colts — Anthony Richardson, QB, Florida
5. Seattle Seahawks — Devon Witherspoon, CB, Illinois
6. Arizona Cardinals (via DET) — Paris Johnson Jr, OT, Ohio State
At 7th overall the Raiders select… Tyree Wilson, ED, Texas Tech
Tyree Wilson, ED, Texas Tech
Even with Maxx Crosby and Chandler Jones in place, the Raiders see an elite pass rushing prospect. Wilson has put up seven sacks and 14 tackles for loss in each of the past two seasons for the Red Raiders. Last season he did it despite missing the final three games with a foot injury.
Jones could be in his last season with the Raiders at the age of 33. Wilson will rotate in immediately and take over as the full time starter after this season. He and Maxx Crosby will make for a formidable pass rushing duo.
