The Oakland Raiders were hamstrung by some prior trades in this year's draft. Oakland was not able to pick up a selection until the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft, but they were every bit as competitive as the rest of the league once the event ended and the signing of undrafted free agents began.
Paul Gutierrez of CSN Bay Area reports that the Raiders are linked to a number of players.
Fort Valley State punter Marquette King
Wisconsin safety Aaron Henry
Beloit receiver Derek Carrier
Pittsburgh guard Lucas Nix
Utah cornerback Conroy Black
Penn State defensive back Chaz Powell
USC receiver Brandon Carswell
California (PA) Thomas Mayo
UNR defensive end Kaelin Burnett
Missouri defensive lineman Dominique Hamilton
There is a great rundown of Carrier, Carswell and Mayo over at Silver and Black Pride. Go check it out.
