Pick # 7 - Oakland Raiders


Darius Heyward-Bey - WR - Maryland - HOLY CRAP!!!

Analysis Positives: Exceptional straight-line speed. Opponents must account for his deep speed on every play. Too fast off the snap for most defenders to challenge him in press coverage. Long, lean athlete with long arms and strong hands. Has the agility to make plays in space. Reads the field and can follow his blocks to generate yards after the catch. Can snatch the ball out of the air. Learning to better use his height as an advantage. Good leaping ability and has become more consistent in timing his leaps.

Negatives: Bit of a one trick pony at this time. Might be the draft's most dangerous vertical threat, but offers little else. Long-legged and struggles to generate consistent separation out of his cuts. Not as consistently effective on jump balls as he should be, considering his natural size advantage. Too often double-clutches the ball. Questionable toughness running across the middle. Lacks strength and consistent effort as a downfield blocker.

Hayward-Bay was like the 4th best WR in this Class

I had the Raiders trading with the Jets and taking Heywood Bey at 17. Al Davis is officially senile.

Agreed, but Monroe/Raji/Orakpo are still on the board, and they did just sign Holt to a 3/24 Million Dollar deal....

you never know...
