Simulated 2021 NFL draft: Who will the Raiders pick as number 17? There is no consensus

The prevailing wisdom after the initial free agency stage states that Raiders need to select a right tackle in the first round of the NFL draft. It is not a consensus, however.

An examination of some of the major simulated projects in recent weeks reveals a plethora of options if Mike Mayock and Jon Gruden decide to hold on and make a choice with the 17th selection in the first round.

Of course, tackle is a popular choice. There is not much agreement on who exactly that player will be, but a name appears three times.

A mock even makes Raiders negotiate to fill a different need.

Here is a look at who some of the experts believe Raiders will select on April 29th, from the most-to-least-mentioned order.
