    Raiders GM views Brock Bowers as 'playmaker' despite TE glut

    Las Vegas Raiders general manager Tom Telesco's first pick in Sin City was one with intrigue, while providing a blueprint for following his draft board and taking the best player available. How else to describe the Raiders drafting Georgia tight end Brock Bowers-- granted, the consensus highest-rated player at the position in the draft and a top-10 overall talent -- at No. 13 when Las Vegas already seemed set at the position? The Raiders used a second-round selection on tight end Michael Mayer last year and signed veteran tight end Harrison Bryant in free agency this spring. Right tackle and cornerback seemed more pressing needs -- especially with six quarterbacks already selected by the time the Raiders were up at No. 13 -- and not only was Oregon State tackle Taliese Fuaga still on the board, so was every single defensive player.
