14. Oakland Raiders: William Jackson, CB, Houston

This pick may feel a little familiar to Raiders fans. Just a few years ago, Oakland drafted another corner from Houston in D.J. Hayden, but he’s turned out to be a disappointment for the Raiders. Maybe William Jackson will be a different story.

Jackson (6’0″, 189) has good size and ran well at the combine with a 4.37 40-yard dash. He isn’t the strongest corner out there, but he’s intelligent, makes good reads and isn’t afraid to go for the interception.

The Raiders need help in the secondary and Jackson would make complete sense at 14.
