28. . Edge. Clemson. Clelin Ferrell. 4. player

The Oakland Raiders ended their 2018 season on a sour note on Sunday, as they were thrashed by the Kansas City Chiefs inside Arrowhead Stadium in Week 17. The team got a sorry effort on both sides of the ball, and though they did not know it,  they did so in front of their next general manager.

Mike Mayock was on hand to watch the Raiders get trounced by the Chiefs, and on Monday, it was announced that he would replace Reggie McKenzie as the next general manager of the team. Mayock, who has been a draft analyst for the NFL Network, will have a lot of work to do in fixing this roster, but will get to call on his specialty by having three first round picks next April.

Oakland has a lot of holes to fill on both sides of the ball, and the picks they got from the Dallas Cowboys and Chicago Bears will be late in round one, as both teams won their division. Their biggest need will be at edge rusher, and with the No. 4 overall pick, they should look to add Clelin Ferrell from Clemson.

Ferrell is an absolute monster coming off the edge, and with Oakland, he could team with Arden Key to give the team two good, young pass rushers for years to come. They bolstered the interior of the defensive line in the 2018 NFL Draft, and if they can add a player like Ferrell, they could have a dominant defensive front for the foreseeable future.
