30. Oakland Raiders- Josh Sweat, Edge, Florida State
It’s going to be a lot of fun watching the Oakland Raiders this season. They have a high-powered offense that now features the entertaining Marshawn Lynch. Defensively, Oakland a major star in pass rusher Khalil Mack.
This is a team that has Super Bowl aspirations featuring a pretty complete roster and depth. However, they could use some help in the pass rushing department. Mack is a stud, but he’s often doubled teamed.
A high-upside prospect like Florida State’s Josh Sweat would be an interesting addition. He’s an explosive athlete who is just scratching the surface of his potential. Sweat is more of a speed player than current Raiders Mario Edwards Jr. and Jihad Ward.

The Raiders are banking on Marshawn Lynch returning to form despite sitting out last season. Even if he does perform at a high level, finding a long-term answer at the position is a need. Lynch doesn’t have more than two years left in the tank.
Alabama’s Bo Scarbrough would be an interesting fit and give the Raiders another bruising runner. He would allow Oakland to continue to feature a power running game. Lynch is his own animal, but Scarbrough would bring a similar style.
