While the Las Vegas Raiders did add a top 100-pick in this year’s NFL Draft by trading Darren Waller, the transaction does leave the Raiders needing a tight end. One replacement in this draft class could be Oregon State’s Luke Musgrave, who received a second-round grade and has drawn comparisons to Waller from Bleacher Report NFL Draft scout, Derrik Klassen.

“In simple terms, Musgrave is too tall and fast to cover easily,” Klassen wrote. “He’s 6’6” but plays with airy change-of-direction skills and long, explosive strides that allow him to separate in the open field.
