Mandatory Credit: Soobum Im-Imagn Images The Las Vegas Raiders have a strong cornerback trio with Eric Stokes, Darien Porter, and Taron Johnson, but the team is expected to add to the room either in depth or a potential starter. I broke down the options at nickel cornerback , but now it’s time to dive into the boundary options.

Eric Stokes returns after a breakout 2025 season where he posted 7 PBU, allowed a 64. 8 QBR, and ranked top 25 in EPA/target, separation allowed, and yards/snap allowed. Darien Porter struggled as a rookie at times, but also turned in a 74.

8 QBR against him, 6th in EPA/target among rookie CBs, and 6 PBU. Taron Johnson is coming off back to back down seasons with the Bills, but a transition to a more zone heavy system could be in his favor, and allow him to get back to his true NCB role where he’s allowed a career 82. 9 QBR.

Beyond those, the Raiders depth contains 2025 UDFA Greedy Vance, and 2023 4th rounder Decamerion Richardson who appeared in 0 defensive snaps last season. Round 1 Targets: I won’t touch on these players, if one’s to fall to 36th overall it’s a clear cut no brainer run to the podium: Mansoor Delane, LSU Jermond McCoy, Tennessee Avieon Terrell, Clemson – possible NCB Colton Hood, Tennessee Round 2: As mentioned, I wrote about nickel cornerbacks, those names that will be available in round 2 include: D’Angelo Ponds, Indiana Treydan Stukes, Arizona Keionte Scott, Miami (FL) Brandon Cisse, South Carolina (Consensus: Mid to Late 2nd) HT: 5’11 | WT: 190 | Games: 34 Career: 65 tackles, 3 TFL, 2 INT, 11 PBU, FF, 9% missed tackle rate | 51% reception rate (42/82), 645 yards, 3 TD, 79. 6 QBR allowed Testing: 4.
