We are now a week removed from the start of the draft and just over a week until the Raiders rookie minicamp on May 13. In advance of those rookies taking the field in Silver & Black for the first time, the team handed out their jersey numbers.
Here’s who is wearing what from the Raiders’ draft class:
C/G Dylan Parham — 66
RB Zamir White — 35
DI Matthew Butler — 73
DI Neil Farrell — 93
T Thayer Munford — 77
RB Brittain Brown — 38
These numbers are subject to change before the start of the regular season and I would put money on many of them changing. But this is how their Raiders career will start.
Once the regular season roster is formed, numbers will free up and those drafted rookies who make the roster will have more options as to which numbers they can choose from. Some may even get their college number if they want it. As it stands now, none were given their college number.
