Will Raiders select T-Mac or Jeanty, that is the question

[SFloridaCowboy]

It Raiders select Jeanty, Boys may be able to select T-Mac or trade down and take one of the other highly rated 1st round WR's, then take a 2nd round RB.

If the Raiders select T-MAC, selecting an available Jeanty is a no-brainer. Instant offense. He is a Tomlinson/ Marshall Faulk generational talent and will take heat off of Dak. I do not want Dak throwing too much.

On the other hand, if T-MAC is on the board and Jeanty is not, and we pick T-Mac and then one of the Ohio State RB studs or Kaleb Johnson, this would be great as well. I wonder who will be available at pick 44 at WR who can make an impact in his rookie year.

DT and stopping the run is a higher priority.

First two picks on a WR and RB.

Sounds like a recipe for success.

I’m not sure Jeanty falls further than Chicago.

We have a lot of needs. So do the Raiders. I agree both teams can validate picking both players, but there are also large handful of other options in trenches/DB. We’ll see what happens, only time will tell. I trust Dallas to make a great selection at number 12, the track record shows they should be trusted with this selection.

Everyone assumes Jeanty will be gone. But all these teams ahead of us are in the same position as us. They have multiple needs and RB is deep. You could make the case for NYG, NE, Jak, and CHI could all take Jeanty. Or they might all take another need and go RB early in the 2nd. That means if he is there when we pick, we have to take him as the top tier RBs may be gone by 44. And after the first 5 RBs, I think they are all around the same, ability wise. And you could wait until the 5th. But if that happens, I would double dip.

I could see it. Ben Johnson and Detroit drafted Jahmyr Gibbs #12, and that worked out well for them. So I don't think he'd hesitate to pick another RB high.

Can we trade back, pick up an extra pick and still get that run stuffing bully?

the raiders pick sixth, yeah? don't think they're our deciding factor either way lol. and jeanty is not faulk or lt they both have seasons with his career catches

JMO, (trade down to 18-28 and pick up extra draft picks if at all possible)
RND 1 -- give me a playmaker -- preferably in the defensive front 7. LB, DE, or DT......doesn't really matter. But playmaker at CB, WR, or RB would work as well.
RND 2 -- TWillams or Grant or even Omarr Norman-Lott- -- Don't get cute. If you aren't taking a DT here, then at least let it be the QB that falls like Dart or Sanders or Howard. (I have no clue which one they like better for the new offense, but here or true developmental, IMO).
RND 3 -- There are probably 5 RB that could be had here that could all help the running game of the Dallas Cowboys.

Would love a CB, WR, and LB for sure, but the good ones will go between 2-4 and unless you trade down and pick up more picks......you are limited.

Rnd 5-7 developmental players.....................

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4 picks on day 1 and day 2.

DT, RB, CB, WR, LB, OL, S......just draft your board.

It’s tough to tell now but I’m not sure if there’s a player worth trading up for while still being able to get a premier talent.
