G Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Not a fan of Hollywood's size. AJ is solid and will break tackles. People say Carr isn't a deep ball guy so why get Hollywood? Metcalf (FREAK/TO/Megatron type)... AJ (Quan),... Harry (really poor man's Fitz)... Butler (unrefined Moss w/TO hands) Harmon (Adams/Robinson) Hollywood (DeSean) Campbell (Agree smaller Michael Thomas) Deebo (Landry) Only ones I'd take in the first would be Metcalf and AJ rest should all be there @35 I'm not a big fan of Fant but I'd take him over Hollywood.

Same. We would have one of the fastest, most explosive WR corps in the league after having probably the slowest last year. Sadly, I think he'll go top 20. But we'll see. I know Vic Tafur thinks he'll be a Raider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich7sena Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I don't understand the desire to add yet another receiver early when the team has clearly defined needs and receiver is not one of them. The receiver room is already rounded out. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ Nelson and Ryan Grant are depth, those guys are certainly not #3 caliber WR’s. We need a slot WR/deep threat. Hollywood eats yards as fast as any player I have ever seen personally. His wiggle is also deadly. He works the slot well and can also take the top off. The consensus is to replace Cook with Fant. Hollywood would make us better than Fant would in my opinion. Get a TE later in the 4th, 5th, or even 6th. Antonio - Underneath Tyrell- Outside Hollywood - Taking the top off Good luck. Also this could be AB being AB but when he first became a Raider he said Hollywood to Oakland is already a done deal and then said oops I wasn’t suppose to say that. I wouldn’t think too much into it but Hollywood is certainly in play. If Cook showed you anything, it's how important TE is in this offense. A TE that can split the seems will do more for this offense than Hollywood "taking the top off". They already have Williams in that role. I like Hollywood, but he has a rail thin frame. If I'm looking slot, I'd rather have Deebo who is more of a slot WR and not so frail. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look for Mayock to be aggressive in trades to get more 20-60 picks as he talked about where they can be a little more cavalier with what needs where. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense should be the focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not your reliable catch kind of guy for a 1st down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HB would have the biggest impact. Sorry but I'm taking HB over guys like Clelin Ferrell, LJ Collier, Irv Smith who are bigger need players but wont be nearly as good in the pros as HB. Brown is a dynamic talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Behind AB and TW we have: Ryan Grant - 35 receptions for 334 yards last season JJ Nelson - 7 receptions for 64 yards last season Keon Hatcher - 1 reception for 8 yards last season Marcell Ateman - 15 receptions for 154 yards last season Dwayne Harris - 6 receptions for 40 yards last season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agarcia34 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Raiders can definitely use another WR after Brown and Williams. Your really hoping that Grant cane become what he was two years ago or hoping JJ finally becomes a WR that can produce. I would love to add Hollywood to the team. His lack of size is not ideal, but in today’s NFL you can get away with it. Him in the slot were he would get one on one coverage would be fun to watch and he has the speed that the Raiders seem to really want from it’s WRs this year. Also wouldnt mind Campbell or McLaurin but late first early second is to early for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
true2form Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I have no problems with adding a WR and/or a TE in this draft. They can even be in the top 35. However, our need at DE has to be addressed. I know we won't be able to address all of our needs, so I'm picking our #1 need and sticking with it. We can use BPA for any other picks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't even want risk waiting until 27, go get him at 24 would you rather have him or fant possibly. if fants there at 24 and no de`s? hes my pick. I think anyone whos read my posts can figure out adderly is my wanted man at 27. perfect first 4.... bosa, fant, adderly, jacobs realistic first 4... allen, fant, adderly, jacobs either way, 4 starters.
