Twitter reactions from Raiders' selection of Gareon Conley

With the No. 24 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Oakland Raiders selected Ohio State Buckeyes cornerback Gareon Conley.

Here’s the reaction Twitter had to the selection of the latest Buckeyes defensive back to be drafted in the first round.

The Associated Press’ Josh Dubow revealed a telling stat that shows just how good Conley was for Ohio State.

One person that was surprised by the pick was NFL Media’s draft analyst Ian Rapoport.

Fox Sports’ Skip Bayless offered possibly the most simple but honest take on the selection of Conley.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter added a snapshot of the Raiders’ history with first-round defensive backs out of Ohio State.

Raiders star defensive end Khalil Mack was quick to welcome his new teammate.

Super Bowl XXXV Champion and NFL Media analyst Brian Billick thinks extremely highly of the 6-foot-2 corner.

The Raiders may have found a player that can step in and be a true No. 1 corner for the Silver and Black. With his stats taken into account, that could be sooner rather than later.
