The Raiders selected Porter in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 68th overall.
				ANALYSIS
A tall, rangy corner with elite speed, Porter is a very interesting prospect. Porter was primarily a special-teams player and wide receiver who transitioned to corner as a senior. As a result, he's inexperienced relative to his peers, but the tools are intriguing. He ran a 4.3 flat in the 40 at 6-foot-3 and 195 pounds. Porter may take some lumps as he hones his coverage skills, but he can be an impact special-teamer from the jump (five combined punt- and field-goal blocks at Iowa State). If he develops, Porter could be a steal for the Raiders in the third round.

    Getting first-team reps in minicamp
Porter and Eric Stokes worked as the Raiders' first-team cornerbacks during OTAs and minicamp, per Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com.
				ANALYSIS
Porter could be thrust into the starting lineup immediately in an unproven Vegas secondary. The rookie third-round pick out of Iowa State played transitioned from wide receiver to cornerback in college, but he may be afforded the opportunity to learn on the job, as Porter's lack of experience hasn't held him back from contending for a starting role.
