Final Oakland Raiders Mock Draft
Here is Fanspeak’s full, final 2013 Oakland Raiders Mock Draft:
3. Oakland Raiders – DT Sharrif Floyd, Florida
About the Pick: Floyd has elite tackle ability and plays both the run and pass very well. His strong suit is getting penetration in the backfield and being a disruptor. He should really help bring pressure up the middle, which will prevent quarterbacks from stepping up.
Steve’s Take: The Raiders need a lot of help and could go with just about any position here. In fact don’t be surprised if they trade back as they desperately need to stockpile cheap young talent. Assuming they keep the pick, I think one of four positions make the most amount of sense. An edge rusher to boost the anemic pass rush, a defensive tackle to replace their free agent losses, a corner given their weak secondary or a guard to help bolster their impressive offensive line. With Floyd on the board here, and guard probably the fourth concern, I think they begin the rebuilding process of the interior of that line.
