When the topic is the worst head coach in the history of the Las Vegas Raiders’ franchise, let’s face it, there’s many candidates.

Las Vegas Raiders star tight end Brock Bowers says he feels "100 percent" after a knee injury limited him to 12 games last season and affected him throughout.
Another offseason. Another one-year prove-it-type deal. But earning $11 million in 2025 and slated to pocket another $11 million if he plays in all 17 games again, the contract and coin are quite fine for Malcolm Koonce. The Las Vegas Raiders third-round pick in 2021, the 27-year-0ld edge rusher showed the burst and explosion towards […]
Las Vegas Raiders’ part owner Tom Brady reportedly attended Thursday’s OTA session. He reportedly kept a close eye on the offense and the all-time greatest quarterback saw the Raiders’ quarterbacks put in good work in the practice.

The Las Vegas Raiders are expected to have a wide-open competition to fill out the depth chart at wide receiver this summer. After the 2026 NFL draft and offseason as a whole, it’s one of the weakest position groups on the Raiders’ roster, giving undrafted free agent Chase Roberts a chance to earn a spot […]
As we sit in the slow period of the offseason, interesting names pop up from time to time. These are players who could be made available for one reason or another as we prepare for training camp to start. One of these instances occurred this week when NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reported that the Arizona […]
It comes with the territory of selecting 21 total players over the last two years, but the Las Vegas Raiders double-dipped at a handful of positions between the 2025 and 2026 NFL drafts. That’s not necessarily a bad roster-building strategy because it leads to competitions in training camp where the cream can rise to the […]
Now that the Las Vegas Raiders officially have their 2026 schedule set, it’s time to start circling which games should be wins for the Silver and Black. To be honest, there aren’t many stretches or even back-to-back games where the Raiders have favorable matchups. Playing two of the best divisions in the NFL, the AFC […]
The topic of when the Las Vegas Raiders will start rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza has been a topic long before the team even drafted him.

Edge defender is arguably the deepest position group on the Las Vegas Raiders roster, with Maxx Crosby returning, Malcolm Koonce re-signing, Kwity Paye signing in free agency, and Keyron Crawford getting selected in the third round of the 2026 NFL draft. That leaves slim odds for an undrafted free agent to earn a spot in […]

EDGE Tyree Wilson amassed just 12 sacks, 91 tackles, and 17 TFL in 50 games. Michael Mayer was quickly placed as a second TE after drafting franchise cornerstone Brock Bowers in the first round […]
For the second year in the row, it appears that the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2027 free-agent class will be less than impressive. Thus, there aren’t many perspective high-priority pending free agents. Of course, things can change if a player has a huge 2026 season. But, for now, there doesn’t appear to be many pressing contracts […]

However, after seeing the third-year superstar tight end work on the practice field in OTA, Kubiak can’t contain his excitement about Bowers.

On athletic profile alone, Charles Grant is an ideal schematic for for Rick Dennison’s Las Vegas Raiders offensive line.

Grant, the Silver & Black’s third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft (99th overall) […]
The Raiders 2023 rookie draft class will play potentially their final season for the Las Vegas Raiders this coming year, and after selected 7 rookies the roster currently only holds three in Tre Tucker (3rd round), Michael Mayer (2nd round), and Aidan O’Connell (4th round) though O’Connell’s roster spot is not a guarantee this season. […]

We’ve written plenty about the need for a nose tackle and why the slot cornerback in nickel alignments is vital for Rob Leonard’s Las Vegas Raiders defense.
