I can't either; he hits like Jack Tatum. We need a solid hitter like Mitchell. I don't care if they think we drafted him too early; I'm just happy that he's a Raider. I heard the Bears were gonna take him when they were on the clock but the Raiders beat them to him, so I think it was a good move taking him in the second round.

I (along with most every Raider fan) was shocked to see this as our 2nd round pick. I was a bit pissed when they picked Mitchell. There seemed to be very little info on him and I thought our 2nd round pick could have been used elsewhere. Now that I am seeing and hearing more about Mitchell, I am starting to believe that he could be the next Tatum. He could be that sleeper pick that all teams wish they had. And at this particular time, I am starting to think that he will be a better acquisition than HeyBey.

What have you heard about him from the mini camps?I'm still concerned about the safety position.I would have gone another direction in the 1st and 2nd rounds but that is old news now we all must live with what we got.Of all the picks, DHB still needs to impress ,hopefully his hamstrings are ready for camp.If Mitchell comes in and grabs a starting spot and plays well ,then I will have to kiss Big Al's behind cause I have beat him up pretty good for the last couple of months for this draft.God I hope I'm wrong.
