2016 Oakland Raiders draft picks: Analysis for every pick

Paul Gutierrez breaks down the 2016 Oakland Raiders draft class.

Round 1, Pick No. 14: Karl Joseph, S, West Virginia | Highlights

My take: Karl Joseph is a hard-hitting safety in the mold of Mike Mitchell, who was supposed to be the second coming of Jack Tatum. Not so much. He is more Earl Thomas. And while Joseph might not be as raw as Mitchell, not with five interceptions for the Mountaineers last year, the 5-foot-11, 200-pound Joseph is coming off a serious knee injury that limited him to four games.
