Oakland Raiders scouts met with Stanford guard Josh Garnett on the first day of the 2016 Senior Bowl.

The first day of the 2016 Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama has brought a theme for the Oakland Raiders scouts as they continue to look for offensive line talent outside of the first round. Reggie McKenzie and company meeting with a pair of lineman in the Round 2-4 range that could be instant impacts for the Raiders.

Meeting with Texas Tech offensive tackle Le’Raven Clark, the Raiders also met with one of the top guards in the draft class on Monday. Taking some time to talk with Stanford’s Josh Garnett, a member of the Cardinal’s vaunted offensive line that has developed a deserved reputation for producing maulers in recent years.

Roster Watch reported that the Raiders had met with Garnett, who is projected as a Round 2-3 prospect going into Senior Bowl week.

Already having Gabe Jackson on the interior offensive line, the Raiders could be looking to build for the future with another young mauler in Garnett. With a Stanford pedigree, there would be few complaints if Garnett was available in Round 3 from the Raider Nation. The question will be if Garnett is available for the Raiders late enough that they will be able to select the fifth-ranked guard in the class.
