The Las Vegas Raiders' head coach, Antonio Pierce, says he is looking forward to seeing what this rookie class has to offer.
Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce selected the right players for his vision in the 2024 NFL Draft. The class of undrafted free agents also fits the bill for what he wants.
Pierce, a former undrafted linebacker with the New York Giants who won a Super Bowl, knows what it takes to not just make it through rookie minicamp, but find success. Pierce told media his approach to each rookie is the same. "Yeah, we've got 32 Raiders here. I don't care if he's the 13th pick or the guys that's trying out. They've got a Raider uniform on, we're going to treat them accordingly," Pierce said. "They earned the right to stay here, they earned the right to get more reps. I'm just excited to get them here, man.
"I think he has a great opportunity to help us, especially in the kicking game," Pierce said of Taylor. "... he's a good-looking prospect ... a really good fit for us.""We got some gritty, some grimy, nasty, back-alley guys ... and more importantly we got size. I think you look at the two lineman, both gritty, tough, physical, , ... on the backend, speed with the secondary ... a very good group of guys, man.
