The much-awaited 2016 NFL Draft is finally here, and the Raiders used their first-round draft selection to continue their offseason overhaul of the secondary. With the 14th overall pick in the Draft, General Manager Reggie McKenzie chose safety Karl Joseph of West Virginia University.

Joseph is known as a big-hitter and extremely physical player, and many analysts (and his teammates) view him as a perfect fit in Silver and Black. Here are a few of the many social media reactions to the pick:

We got "The Eraser" Nelson ! And "The Hitman" Joseph ... ! Sheeeesh that's a scary sight !  #BlackMass — Leon Orr (@LeonOrr) April 29, 2016
