We’re heading down the home stretch of the pre-NFL Draft process and the talk is heating up hotter than ever. The Raiders have been linked to every top prospect in the first round with the exception of the wide receivers and there are so many directions that they could go with the seventh overall pick. In this mock draft we will operate under the assumption that the Raiders will be looking to trade down from seventh to add more picks and will then focus on building up the defense by taking the best player available. The defense is the bigger need despite the multitude of signings and the Raiders will be looking for impact players on that side of the ball. In our last mock, the Raiders traded down with the New England Patriots and in this one they trade down with another familiar face in the Tennessee Titans. The Titans used the pick to draft Will Levis who the Raiders have been linked to but it could all be smoke and mirrors from Las Vegas to throw off the scent of who they really want.
