Tom Telesco’s first draft as the Las Vegas Raiders general manager is in the books and it was interesting to see the personnel man operate.
Telesco, his crew of scouts and assistants were smooth operators over the course the three-day 2024 NFL Draft and the the Silver & Black didn’t move up or down in any round and simply made selections.
The first and second round picks were best player available-type selections but gave the Raiders two premiere prospects to a roster in dire need of talent. And not surprisingly, both picks — Georgia tight end Brock Bowers and Oregon guard Jackson Powers-Johnson — were on offense.
