Now they hold the number 14 pick in the upcoming NFL draft. This gives them a strong position early in the first round. With the most draft picks across all seven rounds, the Raiders have plenty of flexibility. They can trade up for a top talent or move down to stock palm or selections. Three agency moves will shape their biggest needs in the coming weeks. Fans and analysts are buzzing about how this rebuilds the roster. Losing Crosby creates a gap on defense, but the extra picks open doors for youth and depth. It's a pivotal moment for the team's future. At number 14, prospects like Miami's past Russia, Rubin Bain and USC White receiver McCoy Lemons stand out. Others in the mix include Penn State's Guard, Oliva Vega, Iowane, Utah Spencer Fano, Tennessee's cornerback Jermad McCoy, and safeties from Toledo and Oregon.
