Raiders' Tommy Eichenberg: Picked in fifth round by Las Vegas
The Las Vegas Raiders selected Tommy Eichenberg in the fifth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 148th overall.Eichenberg is probably more skilled than toolsy at a smallish 6-foot-2, 233 pounds, but the Ohio State standout could prove a viable starting linebacker if his athleticism doesn't hold him back. He produced 200 tackles (14.5 for a loss) while starting the last 23 games of his career, serving as a leading contributor in a strong Buckeyes run defense. Coach Antonio Pierce is a former fringe prospect linebacker himself and emerged as one of the best in the NFL, so perhaps Pierce sees something in Eichenberg.
