Las Vegas Raiders: CB Amik Robertson

(Scott Wachter-USA TODAY Sports)

Coaches, scouts, and general managers can say all they want about their players, but if you really want to know what a franchise’s type is at any position, simply look at the moves they make. The Raiders of Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock made it abundantly clear in the 2020 draft just what kinds of cornerbacks they want with the first-round pick of Ohio State’s Damon Arnette in the first round, and Louisiana Tech’s Amik Robertson in the fourth round. Arnette is the bigger name and the bigger guy from the bigger school, but Robertson — who measured 5-foot-9 and 180 pounds at the scouting combine — has shown the ability and mentality to take on receivers much bigger than he is, and whether it’s from the slot or outside, he totaled 14 interceptions in his three-year college career. This team is going back to the future with its desire for cornerbacks who will get in the face of every receiver, win or lose.
