When the Oakland Raiders drafted David Sharpe with the 129th pick 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 take big and powerful OL from Florida. Reports say he’s almost blind in his right eye.

#Raiders… a partially blind offensive tackle over a LB. WHY DOES REGGIE HATE LBs?????

#Raiders pick a tackle with one eye. Now that’s a guy that’s ready to be a pirate

Linebackers? We don’t need no stinkin’ linebackers . . . #Raiders

If David Sharpe was going to make it in the NFL, it was going to be at OG. #Raiders are going to make him play inside.

#Raiders going with a OT in David Sharpe that has great base and functional skill set. Sloppy at first contact and feet but could develop.

Sharpe was solid for the Raiders, but you gonna get a LB anytime soon Reg? #Raiders #NFLDraft

I’m honesty not impressed st all with the #Raiders draft so far. Last two picks have a ton of question marks.

There we go again drafting on potential and upside. God forbid we would draft an individual who could actually contribute this year #raiders
