The Las Vegas Raiders have selected WR Malik Benson with the No. 195 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact
Benson's game is built on speed as he ran a 4.37 40-yard dash at this year's Combine. The wide receiver played at Oregon last season and averaged 16.7 yards per catch on 43 receptions while hauling in a career-best six touchdowns. Benson also has experience returning punts, and took one for a touchdown last season with the Ducks. Benson will be part of the receiving corps and could be a deep threat for Fernando Mendoza to throw to in 2026.
