Fernando Mendoza, the No. 1 overall draft pick of the Las Vegas Raiders, still considers himself an underdog story. Despite being the highest recruit in Florida coming out of high school and being ranked 288th overall, Mendeza still believes himself as an underdog. He has an established veteran to follow and ask questions of, and this is a major reason for the Raiders' signing of Kirk Cousins. Despite his struggles, MendOza remains optimistic and ready to help the team win. The Raiders' general manager and coach, John Spytek, have expressed a positive outlook for their future.
