Raiders Eye Indiana Lineman Pat Coogan for Draft
1 Mar
Summary
- Raiders could draft Indiana lineman Pat Coogan.
- Coogan played center and guard for the Hoosiers.
- He's projected as a day three draft selection.

The Las Vegas Raiders are reportedly evaluating Indiana lineman Pat Coogan as a potential target in the upcoming NFL Draft. Coogan, who recently transferred to Indiana from Notre Dame, earned second-team All-Big Ten honors and was named Rose Bowl MVP. He primarily played center for the Hoosiers but also has experience at left guard, offering interior offensive line versatility.
Standing at 6-foot-5 and weighing 311 pounds, Coogan possesses impressive size and athleticism for his position. Pro Football Focus noted his strong performance in pass protection, allowing only seven pressures and no sacks in 372 pass-blocking snaps last season. He is also recognized as an elite run-blocker.
Despite potential scheme fit questions with new head coach Klint Kubiak's outside zone scheme, Coogan is projected to be a day three selection. The Raiders, who hold 10 draft picks and have significant needs along the offensive line, could find considerable value in selecting him, potentially in the sixth round.
