The Raiders went with a defensive player in this year’s draft, selecting Alabama linebacker Rolando McClain at number 8 overall.
McClain is 6’3″ and weighs 254 pounds. Below is NFL.com’s pick analysis.
Pick Analysis: The selection of Rolando McClain came as a surprise to some, but it’s a sensible pick based on the Raiders’ struggles against the run. McClain is a stout “Mike” linebacker with exceptional instincts. He gives Oakland a more physical presence inside. With the Raiders not satisfied with Kirk Morrison’s play, the decision to add McClain was a reflection of a desire to improve the middle of the defense.
