3. Cornerback

Once the Raiders traded away Gareon Conley midseason, you knew that the cornerback position would be one that the Raiders would try to upgrade again this offseason.

The team feels great about Trayvon Mullen, and what he did as a rookie, and they re-signed veteran Nevin Lawson to a modest contract extension this offseason. But Daryl Worley is set to hit free agency, and the team lacks another proven cornerback on the outside.

If there is one position the team may look to address in free agency, expect it to be at the cornerback position. It just takes too long for draft picks to develop, and the Raiders need to find an instant starter to pair with Mullen for the 2020 season.

Expect the Raiders to chase some of the top free agents at cornerback, such as Byron Jones or Kendall Fuller, once the new league year beings.
