Raiders made right call in rejecting Bucs' first-round trade offer

Everyone thought the Raiders were going to trade down in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft. They were without a second-round pick, and the quickest way to pick one up is to move down the board.

General manager Mike Mayock said had an opportunity to move down at No. 19, but instead, the Raiders drafted Ohio State cornerback Damon Arnette. But the Silver and Black also had a chance to move down earlier in the draft when they went on the clock with the No. 12 overall pick.
