Raiders go defense at No. 19, pick cornerback Damon Arnette

The Las Vegas Raiders have selected Ohio State cornerback Damon Arnette with the No. 19 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

What It Means:

Arnette wasn't considered to be a first round pick by most coming into the draft, but he gets picked at No. 19 nonetheless. Perhaps overlooked playing opposite No. 3 overall pick Jeff Okudah, Arnette has the potential to be an impact player in the Raiders' secondary in their first year in Las Vegas.

Then-Oakland struggled to defend against the pass last season, ranking 25th in the league with 4,107 yards allowed.
