The Raiders are doing a lot of pre-draft work on cornerbacks. They’ve met with several Day 2 cornerback options, including Marcus Jones (Houston) and Cordale Flott (LSU).
The most recent cornerback that the Raiders have shown some interest in is UTSA defensive back Tariq Woolen. After a great week at the Senior Bowl, Woolen was the talk of the town after dominating the NFL Combine.
Woolen ran a 4.26 at 6’4, 205 pounds in Indianapolis. He also posted an absurd 42 inch vertical with a 10’11 broad jump. Simply put, he’s one of the most athletic defensive backs to enter the NFL in several years.
