Total breakdown: Oakland Raiders draft TSU offensive tackle Anthony Morris in seventh round

OAKLAND, California -- A few quick thoughts on the Oakland Raiders' first seventh-round draft pick.

The pick: Anthony Morris, offensive tackle, Tennessee State

My take: Morris is 6-foot-6, 290 pounds. He is a small-school player, but when offensive linemen are taken this low, it's for developmental reasons.

Stocking up on the offensive line: In the fourth round, Oakland took Miami's Jon Feliciano. He has a chance to compete at right guard. Morris won't compete for a starting job right away. His battle will be to make the 53-man roster.
