When the Oakland Raiders drafted Shalom Luani with their first pick of the 7th round of the 2017 NFL Draft, as always, Twitter had plenty to say on the matter. Here’s a look at some of the many takes that spread through Twitter like wildfire when the pick was made:
#Raiders select Shalom Luani, S from Washington State. Packers type. Needs to improve tackling but a playmaker.

Luani has a great upside, needs work with tackling but I should be a niners fan and not be critical of Reggie @gwdspecialist
