Our take
Greg Papa felt like he was the pick for a long time
Zach Miller Tight End Arizona state is pick number 2
Our take
Miller is compared to Todd Heap of the Ravens and if he can live up to any of that he will be a great pick.
The Raiders have been lacking a consistant Tight end with the addition of Miller and Stewart the Raiders could be well on there way to that.
Comments
Quentin Moses Defensive End Georgia is pick number 1 of the third round
Our take
This guy fell down the draft chart because of a poor senior season but he could end up being an starter opposite Burgess he has that type of ability.
He had 137 tackles and 25 sacks during his college career.
Comments
Johnnie Lee Higgins WR UTEP is the final pick of the third Round
Our take
