Raiders' McCoy: Draft Steal or Injury Risk?
Description
The Las Vegas Raiders made a bold move in the 2026 NFL Draft, trading up to select cornerback Jermod McCoy at pick 101. Despite injury concerns, including knee issues and cartilage damage, the Raiders GM, John Spytek, saw McCoys elite skills and NFL-ready frame, betting on his potential. McCoy is now a top contender for Defensive Rookie of the Year, expected to start opposite Eric Stokes on the boundary, and anchor the Raiders revamped secondary. If he stays healthy, McCoy could rewrite his draft story and become a cornerstone of the Raiders defense for years to come.
