Today’s late-round draft pick signings:
Las Vegas Raiders
- RB Zamir White (fourth round, Georgia)
White had productive sophomore and junior seasons at Georgia. Over the past two years, the running back collected 1,747 yards from scrimmage and 22 touchdowns in 25 games. The Raiders have a crowded depth chart at RB, but he could slide in behind Josh Jacobs and Kenyan Drake as the third running back (especially if Brandon Bolden primarily plays special teams).
The new Raiders staff quickly declined the 5th year option on fan favorite and Pro Bowler Josh Jacobs. They then used their second pick on a running back instead of addressing other needs.
Hope Zamir can cover a receiver and tackle…
Zamir is a beast and will probably be the starter before the year is over.
