Turns out they did great homework, got him at 24 and up until a week before the draft when the story came out he was projected around 8-10
It's a perfect fit too, Smith and Amerson are both big corners but not very fast. Conley brings that variability. Adding him and obi in the secondary as rookies, plus a full season of Joseph at FS and Mario Edwards Jr back on the line and I think that's where the Raiders make a huge jump this year.
Marshawn is getting all the hype and it's leaving everyone but Mack under the radar on d for now

According to these metrics....Raiders the likliest team to regress this season.
