拉斯维加斯突袭者队总经理汤姆·特莱斯科开玩笑地驳斥了有关在 2024 年 NFL 选秀中通过抛硬币决定球队选择布洛克·鲍尔斯而非特里昂·阿诺德的说法，声称他使用“神奇的 8 号球”来决定选秀。尽管阿诺德的言论引发了谣言，但突袭者队的多名官员驳斥了抛硬币的说法，其中包括教练安东尼奥·皮尔斯和助理总经理查普·凯利。

Las Vegas Raiders GM Disputes Coin Flip Account in Draft Selection Process

拉斯维加斯突袭者队总经理在选秀过程中对硬币翻转账户提出争议

Las Vegas Raiders General Manager Tom Telesco has refuted claims that the team used a coin toss to determine their selection of Brock Bowers over Terrion Arnold in the 2024 NFL draft.

拉斯维加斯突袭者队总经理汤姆·特莱斯科驳斥了有关球队在 2024 年 NFL 选秀中通过抛硬币决定选择布洛克·鲍尔斯而非特里昂·阿诺德的说法。

Allegations of a coin flip emerged from Arnold, who stated on a recent podcast that Raiders Head Coach Antonio Pierce informed him after the draft that the team had employed a "coin toss" method to decide between the two players.

阿诺德提出了抛硬币的指控，他在最近的播客中表示，突袭者队主教练安东尼奥·皮尔斯在选秀后告诉他，球队采用了“抛硬币”的方法来在两名球员之间做出决定。

Telesco has emphatically denied these assertions, stating during an appearance on NFL Network's Total Access that he relies on a "magic 8-ball and not a coin" for draft decision-making.

Telesco 断然否认了这些说法，并在 NFL Network 的 Total Access 节目中表示，他依靠“神奇的 8 球而不是硬币”来做出选秀决策。

Multiple sources within the Raiders organization have corroborated Telesco's denial. Pierce has clarified to ESPN's Ryan Clark that the team had unanimously decided on Bowers after the first two quarterback prospects, Michael Penix Jr. and J.J. McCarthy, were chosen prior to their turn.

突袭者组织内的多个消息来源证实了 Telesco 的否认。皮尔斯向 ESPN 的瑞安·克拉克 (Ryan Clark) 澄清，在前两名四分卫小迈克尔·佩尼克斯 (Michael Penix Jr.) 和 J.J.麦卡锡在轮到他们之前被选中。

Assistant General Manager Champ Kelly further refuted the coin flip account, stating to The Athletic's Vic Tafur that he "can't confirm that at all." Kelly expressed positive sentiments towards Arnold, stating that he looked forward to following his career but emphasized that the Raiders were firmly committed to Bowers as their selection.

助理总经理查普·凯利进一步驳斥了硬币翻转的说法，他向The Athletic的维克·塔福尔表示，他“根本无法证实这一点”。凯利对阿诺德表达了积极的看法，表示他期待着继续他的职业生涯，但强调突袭者队坚定地选择鲍尔斯作为他们的选择。

"We drafted Brock, and we're excited to get him here," Kelly said. "And I don't think anyone else in our whole draft room felt any other way."

“我们选中了布洛克，我们很高兴能把他带到这里，”凯利说。 “我不认为我们整个选秀室里的其他人有任何不同的感觉。”

Arnold's draft status defied expectations, as analysts anticipated his selection earlier. However, this trend was consistent among defensive prospects in the first round, which saw a record-breaking streak of 14 consecutive offensive players and a total of 23 offensive selections.

阿诺德的选秀状况超出了预期，因为分析师早些时候就预测到了他的选择。然而，这一趋势在首轮防守前景中也得到了体现，首轮连续14名进攻球员和总共23次进攻选择打破了纪录。

B/R's NFL scouting department ranked Arnold as the 11th-best prospect in the 2024 draft. His draft wait concluded when the Detroit Lions traded up five spots to acquire the Alabama cornerback with the 24th overall pick.

B/R 的 NFL 球探部门将阿诺德列为 2024 年选秀中第 11 位的最佳新秀。当底特律雄狮队交易了五个位置，以第 24 顺位选秀权获得了阿拉巴马州角卫时，他的选秀等待结束了。

The Raiders are placing significant stock in Bowers' ability to enhance their passing attack, alongside established receivers Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers. The 21-year-old has demonstrated consistent excellence in receiving yards for Georgia throughout his collegiate career.

突袭者队非常看重鲍尔斯与老牌接球手达万特·亚当斯和雅各比·迈耶斯一起增强传球进攻的能力。这位 21 岁的球员在他的大学生涯中在乔治亚州的接球码方面表现出了一贯的出色表现。

As the Raiders prepare for the upcoming season, the team's decision-making process regarding its draft selections remains a topic of discussion. While some may question the absence of a coin flip in the Bowers-Arnold decision, the Raiders maintain their belief in the meticulous evaluation that led them to select Bowers as their first-round pick.

当突袭者队为即将到来的赛季做准备时，球队关于选秀的决策过程仍然是一个讨论的话题。虽然有些人可能会质疑鲍尔斯-阿诺德的决定是否存在抛硬币的情况，但突袭者队仍然相信经过仔细评估后他们选择了鲍尔斯作为首轮选秀权。
