Las Vegas Raiders draft a human rocket at pick No. 12 in Henry Ruggs III

The Las Vegas Raiders era begins with a splash as they select Henry Ruggs III out of the University of Alabama with the 12th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. The Raiders struggles at wide receiver in 2019 were well documented and they have been searching for a true number one receiver since trading away Amari Cooper for a first round pick in 2018.

Ruggs is an incredible athlete who ran the 40 yard dash in 4.27 seconds at the NFL Combine, one of the fastest official times in the history of the event.
