80. 833. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Lynn Bowden Jr.. player. RB. Kentucky

Bowden did it all for the Wildcats during his time in Lexington. After notching 745 receiving yards in 2018, he switched over the running back as a junior and amassed 1,468 rushing yards on 7.9 yards per carry with 13 touchdowns.

The Raiders are trying to add speed, and have certainly done so with Henry Ruggs III in the first round and then Bowden here. Bowden also gives Gruden a ton of versatility, something he didn’t have his first two seasons with the team.

Bryan Edwards. 81. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. player. 850. WR. South Carolina

Another receiver for the Raiders, giving them two in their first four selections. Edwards comes out of the SEC where he totaled 3,045 receiving yards over his four seasons with the Gamecocks. Last year, Edwards had 71 catches for 816 yards and six touchdowns, giving him 22 scores for his colligate career.

If nothing else, general manager Mike Mayock adds a different body and style with Edwards. After drafting a burner on the outside, Edwards is a physical presence with good hands, someone who needs to win with technique and size at the line.

Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Tanner Muse. 100. 879. S. Clemson. player

Muse comes in as a large safety at 6-foot-2 and 227 pounds. The former Clemson standout ran a terrific 4.41 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine and had a 34.5-inch vertical leap. Muse joins a safety room with second-year man Johnathan Abram and LaMarcus Joyner, providing some depth and athleticism.
