Ewers is projected as either a late day two or early day three pick which is a good range for the Raiders. They hold a high third round pick (68 overall) and high fourth round as well (107 overall). And they have Tom Brady lending his insight at the position. A QB who is known for originally being selected in the sixth round of the draft.
