28. David Amerson is having quite a year this year and Sean Smith has turned himself around. D.J. Hayden is doing alright as the slot cornerback for the Raiders too. T.J. Carrie gives the Raiders some depth at the position and there isn’t a whole lot after him. <p>Hayden is a free agent at the end of this season and he won’t be a priority re-signing for the Raiders. So the Raiders would be smart to draft some speed at the position as they have very little. And if Tony Brown doesn’t give the Raiders anything else, he will give them speed.</p> <p>He actually has much more than that as he is 6’0″, 205 pounds, strong and rough at the line of scrimmage. His freshman year, he looked promising as a cornerback and a track athlete. And while he’s been an All-American in track, off-the-field trouble held him back in football.</p> <p>He has some football skills to go with that speed and understands pro defenses from his time at Alabama. But of course, he has some developing to do as he isn’t completely polished. The Raiders can develop him into something special over time behind Amerson and company.</p>. CB. Alabama. Tony Brown. 5. player
