The best tight end in this year's NFL Draft class is off the board.
On Thursday night, the Raiders landed Brock Bowers with the No. 13 overall pick, adding a versatile weapon. The Georgia star will bring a different dynamic to Las Vegas' offensive unit, which needed an injection of talent after finishing 23rd in points per game and 27th in total yards per game.

Bowers was a unanimous First Team All-American last season, totaling 56 receptions and 714 receiving yards. He became the first back-to-back winner of the John Mackey Award as the country's top tight end.
With his impressive combination of athleticism and physicality, Bowers should embrace the mentality of head coach Antonio Pierce — and Raiders Nation should embrace him.
