The Oakland Raiders made Johnathan Abram their third of three first round picks during the 2019 NFL Draft, and it did not take him long to make a statement. As the Raiders were profiled on HBO's Hard Knocks, Abram took to center stage, showing an incredible personality, and the kind of hard-hitting style this defensive backfield was lacking.
When the games finally matters, Abram was all over the field, keying a Raiders Monday Night Football victory against rival Denver inside the Coliseum. After tallying five tackles and one pass defended, Abram made a name for himself at the NFL level, as he was flying all over the field and hitting Broncos with force.
