The current NFL Draft order has been shaken up thanks to the Las Vegas Raiders winning a game in Week 16.
Which means if they want their franchise-changing quarterback, in that scenario they would have to trade up if the stayed out of the top two picks.
Our latest mock draft from Christian D’Andrea had the Raiders taking Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders at No. 3. But as of right now, they’d pick at No. 6.
Enter the latest CBS Sports mock. Ryan Wilson has the Raiders trading up to No. 3 with the Jacksonville Jaguars to grab Sanders after the Giants take Miami’s Cam Ward first overall. Here’s his thinking there:
Good luck finding someone tougher than Shedeur Sanders. He’ll stand in the pocket and take hit (after hit after hit) to make a play downfield. He’s not the athlete and doesn’t have the arm strength of Cam Ward, but he does a lot of things really well. I would like to see him play on time more consistently, but part of that has to do with Colorado’s inconsistent offensive line.
There you have it. Make sure to check out the latest NFL mock draft from D’Andrea, along with the up-to-date NFL Draft order.
