The Las Vegas Raiders are in desperate need of securing some long-term assets on their interior offensive line.

Of course, the easiest way to do that would be through the draft. Guard Brandon Coleman of TCU is a prospect the Raiders should strongly consider later in next month's NFL Draft.

Coleman had an impressive 2024 Combine, receiving an athletic score of 88 from NFL Next Gen Stats, the third-best among all guards. He also received a production score of 64, which was seventh among guards, and a total score of 56, which was fifth among guards.

The 6-foot-4, 313-pound prospect recorded a 40-yard dash time of 4.99 seconds, a 10-yard split time of 1.73 seconds, a vertical jump of 34 inches, and a broad jump of 9 feet, 6 inches.

Coleman played four seasons at TCU, most recently having served as a team captain in his final season. He made seven starts at left tackle and four at left guard. Coleman was named a second-team All-Big-12 honoree.

Pro Football Focus gave Coleman an overall grade of 57.7 for his 2023 campaign.

The year prior, Coleman helped lead the Horned Frogs to a national title appearance. TCU's offense finished 10th in the nation in scoring at 38.8 points per game and 27th in overall offense at 455.0 yards per game. Coleman started all 15 games at left tackle and was named an All-Big 12 honorable mention.

Coleman made eight starts in nine games in his sophomore season, seven of which were at left guard with one at right guard.

In 2020, his first year with the program, Coleman played in the team's first four games before suffering a season-ending injury.

The NFL Draft will be held in Detroit, Mich., on April 25-27, 2024. The Las Vegas Raiders currently have the No. 13 overall pick.
