One of the Raiders top needs is help on the interior defensive line. The Raiders have two Pro Bowl caliber edge rushers in Khalil Mack and Bruce Irvin, but have lacked a star defensive tackle since Richard Seymour. That could change in 2017 as there will be talented defensive tackles available when the Raiders pick 10th overall, headed by Washington’s Vita Vea who said in his press conference Saturday that he met with the Raiders at the NFL Scouting Combine.
At 6’4”, 347 lbs, Vea is easily the largest defensive lineman in the 2017 NFL Draft.
