Link to story Raiders | Las Vegas has high hopes for Tommy Mellott Mon May 5, 03:58 PM
Las Vegas Raiders sixth-round draft choice QB/WR Tommy Mellott is a 'unique guy' who the team views as an 'athlete/receiver,' according to college scouting director Brandon Yeargan.'We view him as a receiver that's going to have a lot of value in the kicking game, potentially as a returner, as a cover player, maybe play some quarterback, too. We're looking (at him) really as an athlete/receiver, but he's a unique guy,' Yeargan said.
| Footballguys view: As Review-Journal staffer Vincent Bonsignore noted, Mellott caught the attention of several NFL scouts and coaches with an electrifying pro day at Montana State on April 4. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.39 seconds, posted a 41-inch vertical jump, and recorded a 10-foot, 4-inch broad jump. He threw passes as a quarterback and then caught them as a receiver. Bonsignore reports the Raiders have a broader vision for Mellott, much like the Patriots did with Julian Edelman when they selected him in the seventh round of the 2009 draft. The former Kent State quarterback became an excellent receiver and the MVP of Super Bowl 53. However, Mellot has much to prove before he's viewed as a potential fantasy asset. |

Link to story Raiders | Collin Johnson headed to Sin City Thu May 1, 01:40 PM
Free-agent WR Collin Johnson (Bears) signed an undisclosed contract with the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday, May 1.
| Footballguys view: Coming out of Texas, Johnson was a fifth-round pick for the Jaguars in the 2020 NFL draft, and he's bounced around the league since then. In 2022, Johnson tore his Achilles' and missed the entire season for the Giants. He's spent the last two years with the Bears as a reserve receiver. The Raiders spent draft capital at the receiver position this year, so Johnson will be hard pressed to make the final roster. |
