Raider fan here and I can say without question he is not a fit for our current roster. Only Justin Ellis consistently eats up enough blocks in the middle to warrant picking Roquan at 10. We simply do not have enough rotational beef to keep him "clean", thus he will become a liability each and every play that Ellis is not on the field. That is roughly 1/3 of the time the defense is going to get gashed by having Roquan on the field. That will translate into quite a few first and second down conversions and a need for Carr to set more Silver and Black passing records for us to win games. With the trend towards more power run games in the NFL Roquan only fits into your suggested Packers, Ravens, or Steelers picks. He will be a bust on any other team as it currently stands.
