CB Xavier Rhodes

Rhodes’s best days are behind him. He’s actually been sub-par for the last two seasons, but he’s still young enough to make a true impact. He’s big, he’s physical, he’s fast, and he’s willing to take on any challenge you throw at him.

The Silver and Black did sign Eli Apple, but he’s never had the level of success that Rhodes has had. With youngster Trayvon Mullen manning one boundary, the Raiders need to find someone that can play the other. Again, Rhodes may not be among the best in the league anymore, but he still can fill a huge need.

Also, signing Rhodes should not prohibit the Raiders from taking a potential impact corner in a draft that is loaded with talent at the position. You really never can have enough corners.
