I hope the Raiders can trade down from # 4 and pickup adtl picks to help improve both lines.
100% agree

The Raiders have so many needs, trying to prioritize which is most important is futile...

Barring the ability to trade down, when do you just take the best football player available?

The biggest need on this team is to not turn the ball over and to score TD's and not settle for absured FG attemps!!!

Beat me to it.

If you ca'nt stop the run or put points on the scoreboard - you can't win games.

Lots of needs...

The biggest need is LT. I can't believe anybody thinks that void was filled when we signed another teams discarded RT.

As far as drafting a player to help stop the run, that will happen next year when we draft a MLB. I just copied and pasted this cuz I've typed it a few times now:

Raiders were 19th in run stuffing last year (tied with a couple other teams). In other words, the D-line did an average job against the run. There is some room for improvement, but the D-line stuffed 24% of opposing rushes at the line of scrimmage, the #1 run-stuffing team (the Vikings) stuffed 31%. That means even the best D-line against the run let 70% of opposing rushes through the LOS, and THAT's where we had problems on run-defense. We were next to last in runs over 10 yards surrendered. Our LBs and DBs couldn't bring down the RBs that got passed the LOS and the result was alot of long running plays that let other teams into the red-zone or end-zone.
