Report: Raiders send contingent to work out Vic Beasley

Vic Beasley is one of the top edge rushers in this draft class. He’s generally viewed as a 3-4 outside linebacker, therefore eliminated from the Raiders’ purview by nature of their base defense and the presence of strongside linebacker Khalil Mack.

Maybe those assumptions were too hasty. Key word: Maybe. 

The Raiders wanted a closer look at the Clemson pass rusher expected to be a top 10-15 pick, and they got one this week.

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Raiders sent a four power players to South Carolina to better evaluate this highly-touted prospect.
