Oakland Raiders: Grading every 2018 NFL Draft pick

Grade: D+

Another underwhelming pick here at a position that should have been addressed several rounds earlier. The Raiders have a huge hole in need of filling at inside linebacker, and this is their solution? I sincerely hope re-signing NaVorro Bowman is on the docket for Oakland.

My big problem with Azeem Victor? The kid has serious health AND character concerns that soured many teams on him. Seriously, why are the Raiders infatuated with players who fall into one of those buckets? Key, Nelson and Hurst all come with medical or off-field concerns, and the addition of Victor only makes that list longer.

Prior to a horrendous leg injury in 2016 and two suspensions in 2017, the Washington product looked like a fringe NFL talent. Although he was a productive run defender who loved to drop the hammer on ball carriers, Victor lacks the athleticism needed to survive in this league. His ceiling is end-of-the-roster talent who sticks around as a solid special teamer.

The Raiders yet again ignore the inside linebacker position, waiting until the sixth round to grab a guy who could be out of the league in a few years.
