Many outside of the Las Vegas Raiders organization thought the team should draft a right tackle this year.
There were needs all over the board for the Las Vegas Raiders going into the NFL Draft, and depending on whether or not you believe they needed to come away with a quarterback, for the most part, they fulfilled those needs.
Heading into this year's draft, there were many who thought the Raiders needed to fill the void left by Jermaine Eluemunor at right tackle. It seemed they forgot -- or disregarded -- that Thayer Munford Jr. was still in the building. The Raiders selected Munford in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft. After starting four games his rookie season, the young tackle took on a more significant role last season, ultimately making 10 starts in 15 appearances.
