28. Oakland Raiders

The Raiders had three first round picks in the 2019 NFL Draft and right now I really don’t know if any of them are going to be impact players.

Clelin Ferrell was good not great in the preseason, I don’t know how much Johnathan Abrams does to help the defense and Josh Jacobs didn’t do anything really this preseason.

The offensive line looks solid on the right side but the left side is one of the least talented LT/LG combinations in the NFL right now, which is bad news for the rookie running back as well as his QB.

Antonio Brown is an absolute mystery and after seeing his public feud with Ben Roethlisberger and dealing with everything from frostbite to a bad helmet, I don’t know how anyone can feel confident that he will just pick up where he left off.

What is the best thing that the Raiders can do? Defensively they are a question mark and we haven’t seen much from the rookie running back, so by default it is passing. Outside of maybe Antonio Brown and Tyrell Williams how many players on this roster would catch 20+ passes anywhere else?
