Atlanta, Nashville, Dallas and Charlotte. Aside from January to March weather, there's no there there for me. Flavorless overgrown suburbs imo.

Why Kentucky LB Josh Allen wasn’t the Raiders pick at #4

By Tyler J. Smith

Raiders fans are used to seeing the Silver and Black make some head-scratching draft picks, and this year was no exception as the Raiders passed on SEC Defensive Player of the Year Josh Allen for Clemson DE Clelin Ferrell. While many of us have watched plenty of tape on Ferrell and have come to look favorably on that pick, at the time it was puzzling, and Allen’s fall to pick #7 was puzzling as well.

In his latest mailbag for The Athletic, Raiders insider Vic Tafur sheds some light on the team’s thought process in going with Ferrell over Allen.

“I heard that the Raiders weren’t that impressed. I reported pretty early on he wasn’t in play for them at No. 4. I would never question a player’s toughness, but there were concerns that he got pushed around a little on some plays at Kentucky and he may not have had enough dog in him for [Jon] Gruden and [defensive coordinator Paul] Guenther’s liking,” wrote Tafur.

While I and many others had Allen mocked to Oakland at #4, it’s easy to see why Ferrell might be a better fit for the Raiders than Allen. Ferrell is 6’3” and 265 pounds, while Allen is 6’5” and 245. That sort of long, lanky frame makes Allen best suited as a pass-rushing OLB, when what the Raiders needed was a 3-down base DE. Allen is not that, and if they picked Allen at #4 they’d be frantically searching through their Rolodex for Frostee Rucker’s number. However, Allen fits perfectly with the Jaguars as they already have two of the better base ends in the league in Yannick Ngakoue and Calais Campbell. Allen is free to do what he does best without putting his hand in the dirt.

Ferrell’s tape doesn’t show a ton of bend and he can sometimes over-run the pocket on the outside, but he almost never gets pushed around. He’s too tough and strong to get bullied in that fashion even by quality ACC linemen. The Raiders clearly weren’t just looking for the “best pass rusher”, they were looking for the right pass rusher, who fit both their system and their idea of what it means to be a Raider. Toughness, aggression, high character, high motor, one who “has dog in him”, whatever that means. A love of football and an aggressive style are hallmarks of all the Raiders’ picks. Perhaps Josh Allen is more of a cat guy- he certainly fits in as a Jaguar in any case.

picking for need at #4 is a mistake. I understand avoiding a bad fit, but you still should be picking the best player that can fit in your system.

Was Furious trying to make the Raiders seem really dumb by posting that article? If so, he succeeded. Nice job, dog! :lol:

To be clear, I get the part about drafting for need.

The irony of board draft experts who cull information from online draft experts not having the benefit this year of NFL Network draft expert Mike Mayock is sweet.

:lol:

Mayock was replaced by Daniel Jeremiah. It's not like Mayock left and they just didn't replace him. That part makes no difference to the fans.

Well, you swayed my opinion.

It was a great pick and the entire Raider draft looks like they got great value at every pick rather than reaches for need.

The point is you as a fan no longer have the benefit of his insight as you did in years past. Opinions on the draft have been shaped by what he does, except this year. Do you not think his effusive praise of Ferrell and less than kind things about Allen might have impacted this years' draft?

Mayock figured out this was the real deal when he was unable to trade down.You don't just say, "trade down." unless you are a fantasy football goof.

As long as they don't draft for need and give away draft picks in the process. Who does that?

You almost never hear a complaint about Pace's trade for (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky.

At the time you sure did. The Bears drafted well with what they had, the Niners didn't do all that much with what they received and Pace traded for Khalil Mack. All that factors in now.

Trading up for Mitch was dumb AF, then, now and in the future will still be dumb AF.
