Many informed Oakland Raider fans and media, including myself, predicted the Raiders wouldn’t pass on Leornard Williams at No. 4. So when Jacksonville selected Dante Fowler Jr. with the number three selection, I was ecstatic that many people’s top prospect fell right into the lap of the Raiders. Once the Raiders shocked many by passing on Williams for Amari Cooper, the new regime taught fans and media a like about their philosophy through the rest of their 2015 Draft Class.
Derek Carr is a priority
After missing on top offensive targets in free agency, Oakland rebounded in the draft by getting one of the all-around best tight ends, Clive Walford, in the draft paired with Cooper.
