Drafting a kicker in earlier rounds would be a waste of a good draft pick. There's no such thing as a kicker being the best player available.


The better route is free agency, invite a bunch of unemployed kickers to camp and see which one is the best.

Nice life for a guy who really hasn't won much as a coach.

Nothing wrong per se...but he isnt the accomplished or polished route runner that any of 4 other guys are...but he is a burner for sure.

Lamb and Jeudy have to go in the next couple picks...and theyre gonna have a chip on their shoulder.

I don't know he was ranked #2 WR on many lists and is the fastest WR by a mile. Not like its way off the board or something. Time will tell like always but you can't teach speed.

Over under on his draft was 13 and he got picked at 12

Denver getting more weapons for Lock. Hopefully they can sneak back into the first and get Ruiz to solidify the line

I hope that Lamb likes catching 6 yard passes.

Nothing necessarily, but at their pick I think Jeudy and Lamb are much more complete players, and we're both expected to go before Ruggs

It's just very Raiders to pick the "fastest" or the "best athlete", it reminds me a lot of them picking Heyward-Bey when Maclin and Crabtree were ranked higher by almost everyone

OK...so now picks are coming from left field.

Arnette was ranked 58th by ESPN.

"expected"

Lots of lists had Ruggs 2nd and the Raiders wanted a deep threat that they don't have
