Las Vegas Raiders 2021 NFL mock draft: Round 5, 146th overall
Maurice Hurst has grown into a strong interior defensive lineman for the Las Vegas Raiders, but the team lacks depth in a big way at the position. They could certainly look to address this need earlier than this, but finding Alim McNeill in the fifth round would undoubtedly be a fantastic value.
McNeill is an extremely powerful defensive lineman who wins with strong hands and great effort. He is a strong run defender who sinks in and eats up blocks well when needed and can also penetrate through and make plays in the backfield when he is asked to do so. McNeill is not a special athlete up front, but he is quick off of the ball and plays with a high motor. Simply put, he is a tough and dependable player who could provide immediate value for the Raiders.
