Raiders' 1988 NFL draft haul offers blueprint for three first-round picks

The Raiders are in a unique position entering next year’s NFL draft. They’re currently armed with three first-round draft picks, accumulated from the Khalil Mack and Amari Cooper trades and one automatically given to them.

If they use them all, it would mark the 16th time in the common draft era that an NFL team has made three first-round picks in the same draft. That information comes courtesy of ESPN.com’s Kevin Seifert.

The New York Jets set a record in 2000 with four first-round selections. Recently, the 2017 Cleveland Browns used three first-round picks, and the 2013 Minnesota Vikings did the same thing.
