NFL Draft 2020: Jon Gruden's big board makes appearance on live TV

The 2020 NFL Draft being conducted virtually presented different obstacles for everyone.

Like Jon Gruden needing to find a better place to hide his big board.

The Raiders coach had cameras in his makeshift draft room at home Thursday night, so the world could peek in on him as he added talent to the Silver and Black's roster. Unfortunately for Gruden, he placed his big board right behind him -- and in plain view of the audience watching after the Raiders selected Alabama wide receiver Henry Ruggs with the No. 12 overall pick.

If you look closely, you might be able to see the name of the Raiders' next pick, although he might be a little farther down.

At No. 19 overall, the Raiders selected Ohio State cornerback Damon Arnette. While Arnette is a tough, physical corner who excels in man coverage and is a great scheme fit for the Raiders, he wasn't expected to go until the second or third round. The Raiders no doubt looked to make a trade down, but a favorable option likely never presented itself, so they jumped at the chance to fill the biggest hole on their roster.
