Mellott is the second FCS prospect the Raiders have drafted this year. He won the Walter Payton Award in 2024, given to the top offensive player in all of FCS football. The FCS All-American also worked out as a receiver as a Pro Day, potentially switching positions at the next level.

We're definitely getting late on day three of the draft. The Raiders just drafted a player who has three different positions. He is Montana State QB Tommy Mellott. He played QB at Montana State but most seem to see him as a receiver and possible return specialist. The Raiders selected him at 213 at the bottom of the sixth round.
