With the twenty-fourth pick in the 2017 NFL draft the Oakland (Las Vegas) Raiders select, Tre’Davious White cornerback out of Louisiana State. Raiders fans, no longer will your secondary be abused by opposing cornerbacks, Jack Del Rio has your back.

After a successful run from the Oakland Raiders during the 2016 season, there was no secret to what this team needed to accomplish this off-season. Fix the defense! Derek Carr and his high- powered offense are one of the best groups in the NFL, but the Raiders could have been much more successful with a better defense.

Chalk it up to the defensive line or the secondary, something needs to be done in Oakland. The Raiders take the best corner available here to build upon the resurgence of talent in their secondary. White brings a competitive and experience background to Oakland, and will compete for a starting gig right out of the gates.

Keep an eye on these Raiders, if Del Rio is able to figure out his defense, you may just seem them preparing for a Super Bowl run. Hey, what happened to the Raiders the last time they made the Super Bowl?
