Raiders Draft QB Terrelle Pryor

ESPNโ€™s Adam Schefter reports that the Oakland Raiders have taken former Ohio State QB Terrelle Pryor in the third-round of this years supplemental draft.

This move will cost the Raiders their third-round pick in 2012 which is a bit of an issue now that theyโ€™ll be without a pick in the second through the fourth rounds.

Seventeen different teams should up for Pryorโ€™s workout this weekend so there was obviously going to be plenty of interest in him today.

Pryor mentioned that he wasnโ€™t going to appeal the leagues decision to suspend him five games and added that heโ€™s willing to play whatever position the team wants him to.

Now that heโ€™s going to be joining the Raiders, thereโ€™s actually a chance that they could keep him at quarterback. Jason Campbell is going to be a free agent and the team doesnโ€™t have another developmental prospect on their roster. Many draft experts believe that he is going to have to move to wide receivers so thereโ€™s a better shot that heโ€™s catching passing in the NFL rather than throwing them.
