Would you look at who was on the front page of ESPN's website this morning?

https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2025/insi ... tes#round6
Tommy Mellott, WR, Las Vegas Raiders (No. 213)
Cam Miller, QB, Las Vegas Raiders (No. 215)

We'll go for a two-for-one special here, as the Raiders took the winner and runner-up for the Walter Payton Award (given to the most outstanding offensive player in the FCS). Mellott was a prolific passer at Montana State, but he's expected to switch to receiver because of his excellent running ability. Miller, who will remain at quarterback, displayed tremendous accuracy and good scrambling skills at North Dakota State. The competitive background of both players also stands out, as they faced off in the FCS National Championship last season.

Bobcat athletics is a business to the coaches, school leadership, and players. It's time the fans treat Bobcat athletics as a business too.

The buzz Tommy is getting is unbelievable. I hope he burns the turf in Vegas!

Such a great article. The Wes Welker line was awesome.

No Gucci handbags full o cash?
No entourage?
Thank you, Sir?

Great respect for the family and upbringing.

No, thank you, Sir!

Hope Mr. Mellot still has time to write ethical subroutines for the financial engineering AI. He seems to have the requisite skills.

Football is just a game, sports is but a distraction.

Congratulations Tommy. God speed.

Tommy will be wearing #19

Everyone should wait for the Raiders to cut Shedrick Jackson before buying a Tommy jersey. Maybe after that he'll get #4. :)


Eastwood, did not make it. Ball out! Recovered, by Montana State!! The Bobcats hold!!! The Bobcats hold!!!

I quite like #19, I kind of hope he sticks with it and makes it his own! Looking at the Raiders current roster he didn't have many options to choose from. Interesting that at least for now they've got him still listed as a QB on the roster.

ok. he was 19 when he started school at MSU. so by that logic, he starts this year for Raider Nation. i hate the fans, but will make exceptions this year.

I'm looking at a picture of him in Frisco the first time and he is #16.

I like 19. Unconventional number for an unconventional player.

Will Tommy score a regular season Touchdown this coming season? I'm predicting... yes.


Great time to be a BOBCAT!
