Jonathan Abram released by Raiders - SunsetBengal - 11-09-2022
Anyone think it worth while to make a play for Jonathan Abram, since the Raiders released him?
While he's not a back-end coverage type of Safety, his physical presence versus run heavy offenses that make a lot of underneath throws to the TEs and RBs might be a valuable addition in the back half of the season.

He sounds like a decent catch to me.

The Raiders had a bad 2019 first round despite having 3 first rounders haha.

That doesn't mean that the players were bad, perhaps just miscast in their roles since the coaching change? I mean guys get taken high in the draft for a reason, they're seen to be talented. I get that teams with a ton of picks, like the Raiders had at the time, tend to get wasteful and reach a bit.

Not just 2019. Their last 4 1st round picks are no longer on the team.
Since 2010, they've had 13 1st round picks. Only 1 of them has played at least 5 years with the team.
