The first round is over. There were plenty of surprise picks. And with every surprise pick, there’s a player who surprisingly was not picked.
The Raiders pick next at 38 in the second round, which means unless they trade up, they will watch six teams pick before they are on the clock again. They have plenty of needs to fill on the team, so they could go in a lot of different directions.
Most notably, the Raiders could look to draft a quarterback and Will Levis is still on the board.
Levis was the most mocked player to the Raiders at seven overall for the first two months of the offseason. They went with Texas Tech DE Tyree Wilson while Levis sat in the green room all night going unpicked.
Other notable players on the board who may be of interest to the Raiders incluce CB Joey Porter Jr, Notre Dame TE Michael Mayer, Florida G O’cyrus Torrence, and Tennessee QB Hendon Hooker.
