Analyzing the 2022 NFL Draft picks by the Las Vegas Raiders

#1 - Dylan Parham

Dylan Parham joins as a guard from Memphis and was the first pick by the Las Vegas Raiders. He made it to the First-Team All-AAC in 2021. It is a sensible pick since he is a guard who projects as a center and, therefore, can contribute across the offensive line.

#2 - Zamir White

Zamir White was the leader of the running backs pack in Georgia that won the CFP National Championship this year. But his selection was a bit of a head-scratcher as the Raiders did not have any immediate need for running backs.

#3 - Neil Farrell Jr.

Neil Farell Jr. comes from LSU and was a Second-Team All-SEC in 2021 and won the CFP National Championship with them in 2019. In the 2022 Senior Bowl, he was voted the best defensive lineman. He is known for clogging up running lanes and is a good defensive option to stop the run game.

#4 - Matthew Butler

Matthew Butler joins the Las Vegas Raiders from Tennessee. In his four years there, he had 152 tackles and 9.5 sacks.

#5 - Thayer Munford

Thayer Munford represented good value at this stage of the draft and will add variability to the offensive line. He was on the First-Team All Big-Ten for the last two years and was also nominated for the AFCA First-Team All-American in 2021.

#6 - Brittain Brown

He joins the Las Vegas Raiders, having played his college football at Duke and then UCLA.
