It’s time for No. 3 receiver Seth Roberts to become a No. 4 receiver because he drops too many passes. He’s great when the game is on the line so the Raiders can wait until then to call plays for him. Don’t think I’m saying that just because of his drops against the Houston Texans. <p>He’s been doing that since he’s been with the Raiders but has made up for it in the clutch. So here in the fourth round, I have the Raiders getting receiver Jehu Chesson as I do in every mock. I have him in every mock because I see him as a candidate for the steal of the draft.</p><div class=. WR. Michigan. Jehu Chesson. 4. player. 28

Wilton Speight’s struggles have stopped Chesson from showing superstar ability he has. Chesson put himself on the map in 2015 with Jake Rudock starting at quarterback. He absolutely abused 2016 1st-round cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III, beating him deep a couple of times.

At 6’3 200 pounds, Chesson has blazing speed as a result of his track background. He also has a good vertical to go up and get one and runs very well after the catch. His speed would open things up for Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree at times too.
