Denzel Boston commands consideration from Raiders in 2026 NFL Draft
Washington wide receiver Denzel Boston calls for the Raiders’ attention in the draft as a pass-catcher with great potential.
Wide receiver is a big need in Las Vegas and Denzel Boston is too big of a prospect to escape the Raiders’ line of vision should he be on the board when they select at No. 36 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Boston is the A-typical X wide receiver that the Raiders need more of in 2026.
At 6-foot-4, he is one of the top prospects at the position in this year’s draft class. Which is just what the Raiders needs. And perhaps why they Las Vegas hosted Boston for a pre-draft visit recently.
The 22-year-old recorded 881 yards and 11 touchdowns for Washington last season, averaging 14. 2 yards per reception for the Huskies . What’s redeeming about Boston?
He is skilled at going up vertically to bring down receptions. Boston also has the speed to get down the field to generate big plays. He does those two things very well.
