Hurst is the only defensive player ranked in the Raiders top five. Hurst has been by far the defense’s most productive and consistent player. Through six games, Hurst is looking like a draft day steal after he fell to round five.
Hurst has 12 tackles, two sacks, three pass deflections, and one forced fumble. His ability to push the pocket continues to show up on film.
The next two highest graded defensive players are Nick Morrow (80.5) who has only played seven defensive snaps on the year and Frostee Rucker (70.5). Due to the limit amount of snaps played by Morrow he does not qualify for the top five.
