28. . Defensive End. Ohio State. Nick Bosa. 4. player

Having traded away Khalil Mack prior to the 2018 season, Jon Gruden and the Oakland Raiders are desperate for a pass rusher. This bodes well for Ohio State’s Nick Bosa, as his skill set is highly-coveted by many teams picking at the top, particularly Oakland at No. 4.

The 2018 season was a brief one for Bosa, who injured himself in the third game of the year, had subsequent surgery, and withdrew from OSU to rehab. This didn’t stop the hype train from rolling, though. After all, Bosa racked up 17.5 sacks in 29 career games, including four in the three games he played in 2018.

Bosa’s been mocked to seemingly every team picking in the top five, but he won’t slide past four in this one, making him the highest-drafted Buckeye since his brother, Joey, in 2016.

If he is to land with the Raiders, Bosa will join his brother in the AFC West, setting up at least two games per year between the siblings.
