You're listening to the Raiders NFL Draft podcast.

Here are your host, Bucky Brooks, and Rhett Lewis.

Raiders Nation.

We are back.

It is the Raiders NFL Draft podcast.

I'm Rhett Lewis.

This is the former Raider Bucky Brooks.

And boy, did we have a frenzy of free agency activity, Bucky, in addition to one of the strangest deals not getting done.

I don't even know how to really describe it, hence the long pause.

But we'll get into the Max Crosby situation.

And all of this kind of runs back to the draft, which will get started April 23rd.

So a lot to get through, man.

I know you've been a part of it with me and going through all the free agency frenzy acquisitions.

This has been a wild time, buddy.

Yeah, it's been crazy.

And starting with the trade that appeared to be initiated on last Friday, Max Crosby going to the Baltimore Ravens.

The trade doesn't get consummated by the league year because of a fail physical or the Baltimore Ravens backing out.

A flurry of activity in between where some top free agents decided to make their way to Las Vegas to join the Raiders.

A team that, you know, like a lot of people that take in shots at suddenly on paper looks like a really solid team.

And oh, by the way, the player that you thought was gone is now back.

And a team that you initially thought was competitive.

Now you're really excited about the competitive nature of what the Raiders can put on the field this year.

That's such an interesting way to look at this too, because however you want to say and for whatever reason

that a trade became necessary, right, for Max to, you know, feel like he wanted to get out.

And then, you know, obviously for the Raiders, that's an incredible resource to be able to turn into a pair of first round draft picks.

And so Max leaves to go to Baltimore.

Two first round picks come to the Raiders won this year in 2026.

So for a brief moment, the Raiders had number one and number 14 in this year's draft.

And then an additional first rounder, as you get into 2027, the Ravens get Max Crosby.

And like, yeah, sure, Max, a foundational type of player, you know, everyone in silver and black,

everyone associated with the Raiders knows what kind of player, what kind of person Max was,

what he meant to the organization, which is why you were able to get such a great return for him going to Baltimore.

Anyway, that doesn't happen.

And so, you know, when that starts coming out Tuesday night, right, just before 9 o'clock Eastern time,

I want to say that starts, that starts kind of happening.

What you realize though is that when Max comes back to Vegas, this is a bit of a different team.

I wonder bomb is here on a record setting deal for a center along the offensive line.

You've completely remade the linebacking core with Craig Walker and Nikobe Dean,

which we're going to get into separately.

You've also added an additional edge rusher in Quitte Pay, a first round pick from the Indianapolis

Colts a few years ago. Resigned Malcolm Coons and now Max is coming back like, oh,

Taryn Johnson's in the secondary. This feels different and all the while,

they're still familiarity because his old D-line coach is the defensive coordinator Bucky.

Yeah, like this feels a lot different, but better for Max Grozby.

Yes, Max Grozby has had an opportunity doing the brief time away.

We'll say like a way he got him playing the way he came away.

He comes back, he comes back and he steps into a facility that is much different in terms of the

personnel, the leadership, not only the talent, like I just think about just on the defensive side

alone, Nikobe Dean and Quitte Walker backing him up on their front line, Quitte Pay being a part

of their front line. Lindenbaum being able to anchor the offensive line and then you think

about what they can add via the drafts. There's a lot of excitement about the Raiders that maybe

didn't exist and as he's been a part from the team and you think about Clint Kubiak and what

they're building and what they're talking about doing, I think there's a lot of excitement

and like it's obviously good. Max Grozby was in the building the next day and then he puts out

on social media that like he's committed to the Raiders. Right. Man, if you're a Raider fan,

if you're part of the organization, you like this because I look, we got to say this.

I am sure the Raiders didn't really want him to leave. Sure. They acquiesced to his wishes and

now that he's back and if he's back and committed to being a part of the silver and black,

man, you love this going forward in what you're trying to build. Oh my gosh. You've reestablished

a foundational player. How many teams get to say that? I think it's super cool. Now,

the interesting thing for our purposes, obviously because so much of what we're doing here is

talking about the draft is the idea that okay, you went out and made a bunch of free agent

acquisitions and you still kind of had in the back of your mind, okay, we've got an additional

first round pick at 14, which is a huge resource. Right. You've got number one,

which again, where you and I are both not, I don't want to say assuming, but you know,

essentially projecting the Raiders to select Fernando Mendoza number one overall. Obviously,

you traded Geno Smith back to the New York Jets, which is the fact that you were able to get

something back in return. I think is another huge, you know, feather in the cap for John Spite

Tekken company. And so, and so now you were thinking, all right, you got Tyler Linderbaum

and free agency. And again, we'll get into what that means as you relate to a potential Fernando.

And now you've given yourself some flexibility at 14, right? When you were thinking that Max was

gone, could it be an additional offensive lineman to help remake that group up front? Could it be a

receiver to give, you know, Fernando a little bit more help there? Because what do we always talk

about Bucky? Protection, playmakers and play collar. Obviously, you get the play collar.

Now, still working on the protection and working on the playmakers to kind of continue to bring that

that rolling, you know, up to par. And so now that pick is gone. So as it relates to the Max trade,

you're still sitting there at one. How does that kind of reshape the calculus if Fernando's

the pick at one for the selections in the second round at number 36, which is the fourth pick

in the second round. And then 67 as you get into the third round, like thinking you might have had

that that second first rounder. Now it's back gone. You get Max Crosby back, which is great. So how

do you, how do you go back to thinking about 36 and 67? Well, to me, it's really easy. I think

at the top of the second round, you're thinking about an interior block, right? You think about the

Texas NM kid, Byzantis. I mean, like you have all of those things available, the Oregon kid,

right on. You have guys available at the top of the second round that will slide right in and be

immediate starters. So you, you're okay with that. Now, the third round is tricky because you have

to kind of play the board as it is, but it's being able to attack some various needs. Why receivers

will be plentiful in the third round. If you want some more cornerbacks to be able to target,

you'll be able to get those guys. But if you're the Raiders, I think the second round pick,

you are looking to find one of those offensive linemen that could be there, whether it's an outside

guy or an inside guy, to be able to step right in and give you some immediate contributions.

Yeah. Look, I think, I think that's a good way to look at it. I think you're just talking about

different players, right? And you're talking about maybe different players, you know, players that

you know, at 14 to 36, you're obviously talking about a different caliber of player right now.

How many times is as the player taking a 36 ended up being more productive or valuable than 14?

Like you, we could have that argument go around and round, you know, all day long. But what you're

what you're talking about is, you know, obviously Francis Mauinoa from Miami has gone out of the

out of the tackles. Unrove-freeling from Georgia has gone low move, Fano, Fano from Utah.

Now, Kate and Procter is an interesting one, right? Does he find his way into the first round?

If not, top of the second. Now, that's a tackle, right? Or do we talk about a move to guard with some?

Maybe, maybe, maybe move a guard like there, there are a lot of different things in scenario. So like

Kate and Procter, you talk about it, we end as you outside or inside guy. If there's a guy like Blake

Miller available, where does he fit into this equation? You're better with the last name, but the

airs on the state kid, Max. Maxi Hanochor. Yeah. Hanochor. Yeah. He is someone that's going to be

adventures like in that range, even though he's a developmental prospect. But if you have to take

him in the second round, he's not going to be there in the third round. There are going to be

options for the Raiders and it's a matter of, and we've seen this Denison and Kubiak and guys that

come out of their system. They have a very, a type that they're looking for on the front line.

And who fits that type? Yeah. Like this, to me, when you're the top of the second round,

you're looking for one of those first round of debt somehow falls out because no matter what we say,

it never goes according to plan. And there's going to be a player who has a high first round grade,

that is going to be sitting you sitting right. It's going to fall to you right at this spot.

Yeah. Yeah. Exactly right. And it does feel like a potential sweet spot there, depending on how

many go in the first round. And again, you mentioned Chase Passantis from Texas A&M. I heard some

some big time buzz on him from coaches I was talking to at the combine. And you mentioned a manual

pregnant. Maybe that's an availability at the top of the second. I think what you're counting on

here is though, you know, Spencer Fano, as I mentioned, who has guard tackle, you know, kind of

interest there, gone. Ola Vavenga, Yawani from Penn State, big physical interior player is gone.

So now you're looking into, all right, his pregnant available is Passantis available,

Keelan Rutledge from Georgia Tech is one to consider down the line there as well.

Just some of the other names, you know, Jalen Farmer from Kentucky. And obviously, you don't

really have to consider the center market. It's probably a little bit high to do that anyway.

But as we make this transition from the max trade that didn't happen to one of the marquee free

agents off the board to the Las Vegas Raiders, it's Tyler Linderbaum and massive money for free agent.

But look for our first center, I should say, but that's what happens on the open market, right?

Those guys get big time dollars. And the Ravens weren't able to resign him. Raiders

happily able to make this deal go through for Fort Linderbaum as a three year deal,

averaging about 27 million per year, which is just phenomenal for a really good player.

But now you start to think again back to the draft at number one. If that is Fernando Mendoza,

well, you got to feel really good about the guy that's going to be touching the ball right before

he gives it to Fernando. Well, this is why you love it. And this is why everything is already

done with Fernando Mendoza in mind. If there was any doubt who the number one pick was going to

be, I think they left. They left bread crumbs along the way to let you know that Mendoza is going

to be the pick. The reason why you take Linderbaum and experience player, it comes from a rich,

a school one. Iowa has a rich tradition of producing top guys. He lives up to expectation,

even though for whatever reason he fell on draft night, he lives up to what we expected him to be.

He now can come in and he can handle a lot of the things that normally would fall on the quarterback,

making the adjustments, identifying the mic, the protection calls and all that. So now for

Fernando Mendoza can slide into his role as QB1 without being burdened with a lot of unnecessary

stuff as a young player. He'll grow and take on some of those responsibilities. But right now,

he doesn't have to do it. Linderbaum gives them that. But also, we talk about a tone setter in the

middle of your offensive line. You know Iowa better than anybody. They're like, come on. They're going

viral. Him, interesting words, wrestling and him taking them down to beat him and over time,

that tells you the type of stuff. And I can tell you, like having talked to coaches for a long time

and he's draft meetings. They love guys with wrestling backgrounds. It speaks to the toughness

and all that. This pick is one that is a game changer for the Las Vegas Raiders having someone

as established as that moving to the pivot. Raiders Nation draft season is here. Welcome back for

season four of the Raiders NFL draft podcast. I'm Ret Lewis and Bucky Brooks is back with me.

The Raiders hold the number one overall pick for the first time in nearly two decades and 10 total

selections. We've got you covered with team insights, player rankings, mock drafts and bold

predictions. NFL draft runs April 23rd through April 25th in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Listen on Raiders.com, the Raiders app and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

He's an unrestricted free agent and ends up now a Las Vegas Raider. But here's the thing.

When he got to Iowa, towards the end of his career in Iowa, there was a young player on the

defensive line and his name was Logan Jones. Logan Jones became one of the best centers

in college football over the last couple of years in an anchor of the Iowa offensive line.

But he tells the story when he was a young freshman, a defensive lineman at Iowa that he was

getting his butt kicked every day by Tyler Linderbaum. And it helped shape who he was and probably

influence once Tyler left the switch from defensive line over to the other side of the ball in center.

And then he took off and has been, you know, just a phenomenal player. He's one of the top centers

in this class, actually. If not the top one, depending on who you ask, whether it's Connor Liu from

Auburn or Jake Slotter from Florida or Sandhack from Kansas State, but Logan Jones's name

is right up there at the top. So by the way, he's also a two-time Solon beef days,

Haybell tossing champion, kind of like his buddy Jennings Dunker, who could also be, you know,

in that maybe that, you know, day two range of consideration for a team like the Raiders as a

guard or a tackle. So Logan Jones, one of two years, he passed the baton to Jennings Dunker,

Dunker than one, the Haybell toss at the Solon beef days in Iowa, the previous two years.

And so it just kind of goes back to the Linderbaum Iowa. And now you've got a couple more of those

guys in this draft that just, I love those dudes. I love those players. They come out with great

technique. They've got great grit. They play really well. And I think Linderbaum coming to Vegas is

just, it's going to be an absolute home run. And you talked about like a fellow alum, like Jennings

Drucker. Yeah. Just maybe they may. We talked about like second round third. We don't know how

the second round is going to play out whether you trade back or whatever. Like he certainly could be

a viable option to play on the interior. Right. These guys, and we talk about Iowa and Linderbaum

and the tradition and fairness and consistency that we've seen from players that have been

school there and how well they played in the National Football League. You're excited about

Linderbaum, but you're also excited about the possibilities that can be available to you

in the draft on day two. Okay. Using the Max deal that fell through the free agent signings to

also kind of bring you into the draft here. Jalen Naylor comes over from the Minnesota Vikings.

Another big 10 player, if I may say so myself. But, you know, 14, when you briefly had it for a

minute, right, when you were thinking you were going to have it, sure could have been another spot

for a receiver, right? Maybe, you know, an Omar Cooper or a Jordan Tyson or a Makai lemon or,

you know, Denzel Boston, whatever the flavor is that you were looking for, probably going to be

available there in that range. Now 14 goes away. You ended up getting Jalen Naylor anyway, which

you were probably going to do regardless. And now I'm kind of curious how you see the fit for Naylor

and the need then to continue thinking about receiver and the draft. Now, not in the first round,

but in the second and third. Yeah. Naylor is an interesting player because the speed, the burst,

the electricity that he brings as a guy that was pegged as a number three receiver in Minnesota.

Probably moves into that two, three role with the Raiders as they're trying to figure out who is

going to be the lead option in the passing game outside of Brock Bowers. But yeah, now this is

a really good play. A very productive has a way of being able to make these explosive plays.

Now it's about how do we shape the rest of this office? And whether it's the second round,

the third round, you probably need a true X receiver somewhere. Down into senior ball, you had a

chance to see, we'll go later. We'll talk about purse from Georgia State, Ted Hertz. Natural X

receiver, you saw the length, the rangeiness, a strider that can make plays down the field. No doubt

about his acrobatic playmaking ability catching the ball 50, 50 balls. My range, I'm thinking more

third round. But if we go to the second round and we look at some of these guys, right?

36 is interesting, right? Because people are talking about Denzel Boston potentially being gone,

but maybe he's there. Chris Brasel from Tennessee. Maybe he's gone. Maybe he's there. You begin to

think even though the 40s time at the combine was in great, but somewhere in the second round,

Malik, I feel is there or not. So there's some big body playmakers, pass catches that can get it

done. And we wanted to collect your guy. Oh, Mark, because we don't know where he falls in that

range. 20s or whatever. I know you saying he gone because he's he's gone because he's

there. But let's just talk about like those guys. It is really wide open for the Raiders in the

second round or the third round to find some guys that can come and feel those roles. Yeah, but

it to me, it still does feel like, you know, Fernando, the pick in one, like, man, let's let's continue

to stack around him, right? You know, because I mean, like I felt like they went, the Raiders went

in on the defensive side of the ball and we'll get into this here in just a second, but quite a bit

in free agency, maybe more so that I really kind of thought they might. But it does make some

sense and it now frees you up to really, you know, kind of assess the idea of helping a young

quarterback once you get once you get into the draft and kind of growing with a group, a core

group of guys. So again, we assess the alignment, the receivers. Yeah, I think, you know, as you're

talking about it here, you know, maybe there's a chance that Casey concepts you own from Texas A&M

is around at the top of the second. That's a good one. Yeah, it could be one there. Yeah,

Malachi. Exactly right. Exactly right. Ranch, definitely. Yeah, there's some

ones that they can fit and can do a couple of different things. You have multiple roles that you

can utilize them in to get the production out of them. Yeah, and then look, I think you're obviously

you're still counting on development, right? From last year's second round pick, Jack Bash,

from last year's fourth round pick, Dante Thornton, both of which, you know, in limited time,

you know, showed you, you know, some of what you expected to see from them. Thornton's obviously

got that big time speed. But otherwise, you know, Nailer steps into a big role almost immediately.

He did sign Tyler Lockett as well. But Nailer steps into a big time opportunity here to kind of

step out of the shadows of Justin Jefferson in Jordan Addison and step into a bigger role here

with the Raiders, which, you know, alongside a player like Brock Bowers, you know, you got to love

that opportunity. So, yeah, so I think, I think, you know, receivers a big time consideration,

certainly at 36. And then again, at 67, you're talking about a different group of players and it's

hard to kind of a, to really assess who might be there at that point. But, you know, we'll kind of

figure out where that goes and give you a look at more of those players once we get into your top five,

positional rankings, which we will do on the coming episodes, kind of assess guys that could

be Raiders targets as we go throughout this, this draft. But let's get into some of the free

agent signings on the defensive side of the ball here, Buck, because a lot of names that are going

to be, you know, prominently featured on this defense, a brand new linebacking court.

Nicobie Dean, Super Bowl champion with Philadelphia Eagles, Kway Walker, a first round pick of the

Green Bay Packers is now into the fold. And those two guys together, man, that's a fun second

level. And then you add in Max's back, right? You still got, you're still talking about Tyree Wilson.

You've got Malcolm Coon's resigned and you're broad and Quinty Pay, like Holy smokes that front

seven up there is starting to, starting to look pretty formidable. Yeah, now I like the front seven.

I like what they've done. And Kway Walker is interesting because if visibility is a run and chase

playmaker, maybe never maximize who he could be at Green Bay, but everyone loved him when he was

coming out of college from Georgia, having Nicobie Dean right beside him, someone who is an alpha

dog, great leader, intangibles are off the charts. And look, man, he's a pretty decent playmaker.

I just think giving him the controls, making him to green dot player is going to help them as a

communicator, as a guy that can play the traffic cop like it. Quinty Pay, explosive athlete, super

dynamic. When you watched him at Michigan, you like those things started to show signs of it coming

in the light coming on and in inapolis, but was never consistent playing in a role opposite Max

Crosby, even though you have Malcolm Coots, you have someone who now he can sell into a role as a

compliment, more robbing than Batman with Max Crosby command Max Crosby commanding most of the

attention. You might see a better version of Quinty Pay in Las Vegas than you saw doing his

previous four years in Indianapolis. I think that is part of the calculus here, right? And look,

there wasn't a dominant edge on that side and they kind of kept going after it allowed too,

there in Indy, a couple of years after they took pay, and you know, Abukam and they were trying

to bring guys in, but man, to bring Quinty Pay in on a reasonable deal in free agency as far

as that goes, to pair up with a player like Max and Malcolm and then still have, you know, still

kind of waiting on the development of Tyree Wilson in a bigger way. I just think that you've got

options now and you've got depth because we've seen how depth can get tested throughout a 17

game season. And I think more, you know, on the interior, you know, the Adam Butler's other

world, Thomas Booker, JJ Piggies, you know, he may see even more of, you know, this year.

And again, now as we get into, you know, what this means for the draft, I mean, like I would be

pretty surprised if a linebacker was the pick, you know, at 36 or 67. That's really the only thing

I could say, but like if there's a great edge player, you know, standing, you know,

staring you right in the face at 36, you know, that has maybe followed a little bit,

you still got to, you still got to seriously consider that, right? I think that's part of the,

the balancing act with free agency. Oh, we wouldn't got two linebackers in free agency or,

oh, we, we filled the need here. It doesn't mean we're not going to draft one in April, right?

Yeah, no, I think, I think you continue to do it now. It may change the priorities in terms of

what round you're reasonably looking for. Sure. Uh, when it comes to a frontline edge player or

a linebacker, but it still doesn't preclude you from taking the best play available at those

respective picks. You just let the board play out. The one thing that you always want to do when you

are, uh, a team builder, you always want to have a team that is ready to play if we have to spot

the ball today. Do we have a team that can light up and play flaws and all and be effective?

Well, once you get that going, now it frees you up to really attack the draft, looking at the

talent that is available and not worrying about trying to make sure I get something to fill a need.

Yes, that need is looming in the background, but now it allows you to really lock it on taking

the best players because when you take the best players, and ensure that you're going to have a good

team full of good players, then you just got to figure out how to maximize the players that you have.

Exactly. Exactly. Um, Terran Johnson also a trade with Buffalo felt like he was going to get

released and then the Raiders were able to, you know, kind of minimize the risk of losing him to

another team and free agency. He ends up coming to the Raiders. So you add a corner back there,

you know, to a group that right now, uh, looks like, you know, he's, he could play in the nickel,

play in the slot there, but Kayu Blue Kelly, um, and then, you know, Eric Stokes gets resigned as well.

I thought that was a really nice rehab of a first round pick there in Green Bay. Didn't

necessarily work out, comes over to the Raiders and then now is going to be back for another

couple of years, which is, is kind of cool to see the evolution there. Um, so, you know, you're

starting to fill out some of these roles and like, you know, you kind of, again, you keep going

back like you expect some development from Darian Porter, third round pick, you know, and man,

the depth is starting, you know, to kind of come alive here, but when you pull in a player like

Terran Johnson who's played some really, um, some really good football for, for a team like the Buffalo

Bells. And the thing about it, right, we talk about building the team to win the division,

being able to get two corners that can play really well. Johnson on one side, Stokes on the other side,

you can continue to spin the wheel, see if you can find some guys in the draft, uh, to do it.

We talked about the front seven, and what we do know is the better the front is, the less pressure

typically is on the back end to be able to have to hold up on these long downs. Uh, so you like

that part of, and I'm gonna say this, the best defense is a good offense, and as Clint Kubiak,

is putting in this system, you're excited about the tail back, you're excited about the tidy,

he's excited about how you can build him around the quarterback. If you're the Raiders and you

think about how can we win games playing complimentary football, the pieces are certainly in

pace in place for this team to be competitive playing the right way.

Indeed, indeed. And then the last thing here for today's episode, um,

um, the idea of a veteran quarterback, right? Gino Smith now off, uh, and back in New York,

the team that drafted him via trade. Can he pick it signs a deal with the Carolina Panthers?

So what you're looking at on the quarterback roster right now is a no-comal. Um, and, and,

and look, he's been around here. He knows what, uh, what, you know, playing for the Raiders means,

and, um, now he's gonna have to learn a new system, obviously, as, as everyone is,

but do you still think there is a need to, if we are considering again, Fernando at number one,

to go out and find a way to bring in another experienced veteran that could allow you to start,

if, for whatever reason, Fernando's not ready or, or something of that nature, um,

do you feel like that is still a priority here?

Yeah, I think it's interesting. I think it's a conversation that you continue to have and you

try and weigh the pros and cons of bringing in a veteran desk on the outside. The name that

everyone is going to talk about is Kurt Cousins, given the familiarity, the familiarity with the

system, given the success that he's had within the system, can he be an effective mentor tutor

to Mendoza, even better than what Aiden O'Connor would be able to do? I think it comes down to,

not only price point, but feel. Do we feel like Mendoza needs time before he jumps into the

saddle, or do we need to bring him along slowly while we have a veteran there? I think as they get

down the line and we'll be covering the pro day on NFL network, as they get a better feel for

Fernando, that will dictate how they move when it comes to the veteran quarterback in terms of

really kind of shaping up the rest of that quarterback room. Yeah, and we'll continue to kind of

assess that possibility. What the Fernando pairing with the Raiders in Clint Coupiac might look

like, we get closer to his pro day, which is April 1st, and we'll have a bit more information

there on the more time, more exposures. The Raiders have had with Fernando, talks to them,

and I'll be there in Bloomington, so get a chance to kind of see that up close and personal,

and get to see the kind of the interactions that Fernando is having there, and excited to watch

him throw to some of his receivers as well. Coming up in our next couple of episodes,

start to get into your positional breakdowns, right? Give everybody here a better idea of what

the top players at each position look like, especially as the Raiders move into day two,

right? Second and third round. So for the agency, we'll still kind of continue to get deals

trickling in here and there. We'll update you on all that stuff as we come back to you in our

next episodes. But looking forward to digging into these positional groups as Bucky has watched

the tape laid out his top five guys at each position, and so we'll start going through those for

you when we come back to you next time, right here, on the Raiders NFL Draft Podcast.
