    With the 48th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, the Oakland Raiders select Penn St. C Stefen Wisniewski. An adequately sized lineman with a good head for the position, Wisniewski blocks with good lean, gets leverage on opponents, and effectively uses his hands to keep defenders away. Keeps his feet moving, is quick out to the second level, and shows the ability to hit a moving target. Wisniewski has been productive on the college level and shows the versatility to line up at several positions. He's a workman type player who would be effective in a zone blocking system that puts him in motion.

    Yep. I like the pick. Solid kid, good bloodline, should be a good interior lineman.

    Solid solid pick. I like it. Much better than trading up for a bad qb.
