All they do is take the fastest player, or freak. In this case I'm sure it's because he's 6ft 6. but everyone they choose usually ends up being a dud.

If it weren't for some of Al Davis' crazy 1st & 2nd round picks, the Raiders would be a pretty talented team. they've done pretty well overall, but there team has been set back by taking guys like Heyward-bey & Russell, and that unknown safety in the 2nd. But, they have built a decent roster otherwise, e.g. they drafted Heyward-bey in the 1st but got Louis Murphy in the 4th I think. the latter has made an impact.
