The Raiders are vastly in need of help on the interior of their defensive line and one name that would help immediately is Michigan defensive tackle Maurice Hurst.

Hurst would likely be a top-10 pick if not for concerns about an irregular heartbeat that was flagged at the NFL combine.

Each team will trust their own medical information on Hurst and it looks like the Raiders are doing their due diligence today.

The Raiders never announce – and rarely even leak – what players are visiting the team for pre-draft workouts, but Hurst’s Instragram spilled the beans late Monday night.

Would the Raiders draft Hurst with the 10th overall pick?

It’s possible, but there is also a chance his medicals would allow the Raiders to pick him a little later – maybe to the tune of a trade down in the first round.

You guys know I'd love to draft Mo Hurst as much as the next guy but if we are thinking about value (If reports about where teams have him on their board are true) I'd trade down to 16-18 to get him. — Ted Nguyen (@FB_FilmAnalysis) April 3, 2018

Whether it is Hurst or someone else, the Raiders desperately need to add another defensive tackle that can get into the offensive backfield.

Raiders owner Mark Davis isn’t keen on drafting players with medical concerns, so it will be interesting to see how team doctors feel about Hurst after his visit – not that we’ll actually find out.

For what it’s worth, Hurst absolutely has the talent to be a top pick. Whether you are a strong believer in the Pro Football Focus evaluations or not, the grade Hurst was given by PFF leaves plenty of room for error.
