In April, the Oakland Raiders will have three first round picks, with their first selection coming at No. 4 overall. Picking at No. 4 has brought the team some great players in the past, and the hope is that new general manager Mike Mayock, and head coach Jon Gruden can make the right decision with the pick once again.
Throughout the history of the Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders franchise, the organization has held the No. 4 overall pick four times. The first time came way back in 1961, the team’s second draft, and they rolled the dice on a player who ended up playing for another franchise for his entire career.
