heading to Oakland

Terrelle Pryor Headshot

The Raiders nabbed Ohio State QB Terrelle Pryor in the 3rd-round of today's supplemental draft.  That's at least 1 round earlier than Pryor was expected to go, but we can't say we're surprised.  Oakland loves height-weight-speed guys, and that's exactly what Pryor is.  The 6'5, 232-pounder recorded a sub-4.4 40-yard dash at his Pro Day on Saturday.  We've heard that the Raiders don't think highly of Pryor as a QB, so they may immediately start his transition to WR or TE.  Regardless, Pryor won't be a fantasy factor in 2011.
