This year the Raiders staff has a distinct advantage in meeting draft prospect; the coached the Senior Bowl. Being the coach of the North squad offered Gruden and his staff the ability to meet a lot of prospects up close and personal.
Senior bowl standouts include QB Daniel Jones, WR Andre Isabella, WR Terry McLaurin, WR Keelan Doss, OT Chuma Edoga, OT Dolton Risner, OG Chris Lindstrom, OG Beau Benzschawel, C Garrett Bradbury, DT Khalen Saunders, S Nasir Adderly, and Charles Omenihu.
If they met a prospect in Senior Bowl practices, they might not need to meet with them again if they didn’t want to.
