Dare we say the Raiders are #ALLIN? Clelin Ferrell and Trayvon Mullen become the 17th pair of Clemson teammates selected by the same NFL team in a single draft.

This time last night, the Raiders had gone nine years since taking a Clemson Tiger (Jacoby Ford in 2010). Now they've taken two in 24 hours.

Trayvon Mullen's selection now gives Clemson at least one defensive back selected in nine of the last 11 NFL Drafts.

The Raiders draft Clemson CB Trayvon Mullen with the No. 40 overall pick. Charles Woodson announces a fellow corner. Clelin Ferrell probably won't mind that pick.
