With the departures of starters Robert Spillane and Divine Deablo via free agency respectively, the Las Vegas Raiders have needs at both middle and outside linebacker.
Even with the additions of veterans like Elandon Roberts and Devin White, the Silver & Black would do well to take stock of what the 2025 NFL Draft has to offer in the linebacker prospect department.
And there’s a talented prospect that can play in the middle as the green-dot linebacker or outside in UCLA’s Carson Schwesinger. The 6-foot-2, 242-pound Moorpark, Calif. native put quite the stamp on his final season as a Bruin in 2024 racking up a collegiate career-high 136 total tackles with four sacks, two interceptions, and a forced fumble.
