Adoree Jackson. 1. player. 28. Two small, super fast, shifty slot receivers came into the AFC West this past offseason. Travis Benjamin went to the San Diego Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs drafted Tyreek Hill. But of the two, Hill is the one that scares the Raiders and the rest of the division the most. <p>Rumor has it that the Chiefs took him in the fifth round knowing the Raiders wanted to. The Raiders and Chiefs have been doing things like that for a long time and the Chiefs won this one. So the Raiders need to counter this pick in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft.</p> <p>And the best choice they could make when doing that is in taking CB/KR Adoree Jackson. This gives the Raiders a super fast corner with the movement skills to stay with Hill’s speed and shiftiness. Jackson is a world-class long jumper with hops to go with his speed and movement skills.</p> <p>He has played some receiver at USC too so a false move his way will lead to an interception. He’s probably the best return man coming out too so this pick kills two birds with one stone. It means more big plays for the Raiders and less for the Chiefs when the two teams face off.</p>. CB/KR.
