The Las Vegas Raiders need to come away from the 2024 NFL Draft with at least one offensive tackle prospect.

In the event they choose to take a quarterback -- or another position they end up feeling is of higher importance -- in the first round, offensive tackle Jordan Morgan from Arizona would be a great pickup if he's available in the second round.

Morgan played in all 12 of the Wildcats' games in the 2023 season, allowing just two sacks on 787 snaps. His overall offensive blocking and pass-blocking grades (84.3 and 87.3, respectively) from Pro Football Focus ranked him fifth in the Pac-12. Morgan helped lead an offensive unit that finished eighth in the nation in passing offense (308.3 passing yards per game) and 18th in scoring offense (34.6 points per game).

The prospect earned All-Pac-12 First Team honors, as well as second-team All-American honors from CBS Sports and 247Sports for his 2023 campaign.

The season prior, Morgan made 10 starts for the Wildcats and helped contribute to the sixth-best passing offense in the nation (318.4 passing yards per game). He would be named an All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention, as well as a member of the Associated Press' All-Pac-12 First Team.

In what was his third collegiate season (2021), Morgan started in 11 of Arizona's 12 games after his 2020 season was cut short after just two games when he suffered a season-ending injury. He started in each of those two contests.

Morgan made two starts in six games as a true freshman in the 2019 season.

The 22-year-old offensive tackle was a member of the National Team in this year's Reese's Senior Bowl.

From February 27 to March 4, 2024, the NFL Scouting Combine will be held at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Ind.

The NFL Draft will be held in Detroit, Mich., on April 25-27, 2024. The Las Vegas Raiders currently hold the No. 13 overall pick.
