Las Vegas Raiders seven-round 2020 NFL mock draft

With their third and final third-round selection, the Las Vegas Raiders swing for the fences with a potentially dynamic player at the safety position. Kyle Dugger dominated at the D2 level in college, but can he make the same kind of impact against NFL players? Only time will tell on that, but he is an exciting prospect to watch and his upside at the next level is incredibly obvious.

Dugger is an extremely fast and explosive safety prospect who can make plays all over the field. He also shows impressive short-area quickness and lateral agility that allows him to work through traffic and find his way to the ball carrier. Dugger is a physical and athletic safety prospect who shines as an in-the-box defender. He also shows enough range and ball skills to make an impact on the back-end.

Dugger undoubtedly has a chance to make an impact on the defensive side of the ball, but at worst, he would be a tremendous special teams asset.

Solomon Kindley is not the quickest or most athletic offensive lineman in the 2020 NFL draft class, but he is an extremely strong and powerful player who will beat up defenders on the inside. Kindley can clear out rushing lanes with ease and shows impressive anchor in pass protection. He plays with good leverage and shows extremely strong hands. The Las Vegas Raiders could use some quality depth on the interior offensive line and Kindley could be a major steal in this range.

With their final pick of this 2020 NFL mock draft, the Las Vegas Raiders take a chance on some upside at the quarterback position. Anthony Gordon had a ton of success in Washington State’s wide-open passing attack last season, completing 71.6% percent of his passes for 5,579 yards, 48 touchdowns and 16 interceptions.

Gordon was great in 2019, but how much of that success is from the offense he played in? He was put in a perfect situation to succeed at Washington State and it is simply not going to be that easy at the next level.

Gordon is a bit sloppy with his footwork and mechanics, and he needs to learn how to work through his progressions better if he is ever going to have NFL success. That being said, he has more than enough natural arm strength and he showed fantastic accuracy and anticipation at times in college. There are many plays on tape that will get you excited about Gordon’s potential as an NFL quarterback. He is undoubtedly worth a flyer here for the Raiders.
