Oakland Raiders Can Take or Leave Their 2013 Draft Class

By Carl Cockerham

Oakland Raiders running back Latavius Murray is the only member of the draft class to make a Pro Bowl but even he has been a disappointment.

Bottom Line

Del Rio and McKenzie are going to have to put their heads together and decide who stays from this class. There is no one among these guys that makes one say, “We gotta keep him!” But at the same time no one is going to command top dollar in free agency.

Again, the class of 2014, especially Mack and Carr, will be coming up soon. So the class of 2013 will all get offers based on what they plan to offer the class of 2014 next offseason. Afterall, Mack and Carr are the reason why McKenzie got PFWA Executive of the year.

So the class of 2013 obviously won’t take priority over the core of 2014 or recent free agents. One thing about this class is Rivera is the only one that has stayed healthy so far. So we don’t fully know what all of them are capable of.

There’s only one guy that I’m particularly interested in keeping and that’s is McGee. He looks like he can be an extremely disruptive interior defensive lineman if he can stay healthy. The rest of them are guys the Raiders can take or leave to me.

What say you to that?
