With the 79th pick of the NFL draft the raiders took Buffalo defensive end Malcolm Koonce. While it was a given he was going to be drafted most experts had him in the fourth round or later, not an early round three guy.
But Kooce will surprise a lot of people.
Koonce moved into the starting lineup at Buffalo in 2019 and racked up 34 tackles, 11 for loss, including a MAC-best nine sacks, and three forced fumbles in 13 games. In 2020, he led the Bulls with five sacks six starts.
He has great fast twitch speed and a well practiced, albeit somewhat limited set of moves to use on offensive linemen.
