Commissioner Roger Goodell will officially announce the Oakland Raiders are on the clock in just two days, but draft stocks are still shifting. Here's the latest on player movement as well as the most recent draft notes.
Risers
Darrelle Revis/CB/Pittsburgh: A number of teams have Revis rated as the best corner. Once thought of as a late first-rounder, Revis could be among the draft's initial 12 choices.
Patrick Willis/LB/Mississippi: The dominant defender is still reaping the benefits of great postseason workouts. Originally considered a late first-round pick, he could be chosen as early as the 10th pick in Round 1.
Sliders
Alan Branch/DL/Michigan: Health and intensity concerns are pushing Branch down boards. Originally considered a potential top-six selection, he's headed into the middle part of Round 1.
Michael Griffin/S/Texas: Teams aren't sold Griffin has the instincts to play centerfield in the NFL. It is possible that he could fall into the middle part of the second round.
