Don’t discount Aidan O’Connell being on 53-man roster
Aidan O’Connell has been portrayed as the the lost piece in the Las Vegas Raiders’ quarterback picture. He has been the subject of trade speculation all offseason and the reasoning is obvious. There is no apparent future for the 2023 fourth-round pick with the franchise. The long-term future, of course, is No. 1 overall pick, […]
Submit your Las Vegas Raiders mailbag questions!
Since Al Davis’ birthday (the Fourth of July) is a federal holiday and observed on Friday, this week’s call for Las Vegas Raiders mailbag questions is coming a day early so that I can get a jump on writing it and spend all weekend eating hot dogs and drinking beer!

Where does Las Vegas Raiders’ offensive line rank in AFC West after adding Tyler Linderbaum?
It’s been well-documented that the Las Vegas Raiders had arguably the worst offensive line in the NFL last season. Addressing the trenches was one of the front office’s biggest priorities this offseason, adding Tyler Linderbaum to the roster in free agency by making him the highest-paid interior offensive lineman in the league from a dollars […]
Fernando Mendoza versus Michigan State, Part VII of Las Vegas Raiders’ Mendoza Mania
Up next in Silver and Black Pride’s Mendoza Mania series is the only 300-yard performance from Fernando Mendoza’s final College Football season, as the Indiana Hoosiers took down the Michigan State Spartans 38-13 in Week 8.

Klint Kubiak ready for next step in whirlwind year
There are few people in the NFL world who has been as busy as Klint Kubiak has been this year. He was part of a Super Bowl-winning ride by the Seattle Seahawks as their offensive coordinator, all the while being a leading head-coaching candidate around the league.

After previously looking into the wide receivers, we’re onto tight ends in Silver and Black Pride’s AFC West position rankings.

2020 Las Vegas Raiders Same Position Re-Draft
The 2020 draft, a draft that was bound to be pivotal for the Raiders, holding two first round picks, and three third round picks. Overall, the Raiders 2020 class is arguably one of the worst in the modern era, with only two players (John Simpson, Amik Robertson) still in the NFL to this day and […]
Las Vegas Raiders should utilize waivers in August
The Las Vegas Raiders will hold the 1st overall spot for the NFL’s waiver order, a system that allows teams to claim players who have been “waived” by their previous team. A player is waived when they have accrued 4 or less seasons in the NFL. To accrue an NFL season, a player must either […]
Raiders minority owner Tom Brady is not a fan of the NFL fine system
The Las Vegas Raiders added Tom Brady to the ownership team back in late 2024.

It’s a bit of role reversal for the Raiders’ Mike McCoy and Klint Kubiak
Klint Kubiak is the man charged with steering the Silver & Black ship back to relevance. Officially hired by the Las Vegas Raiders after an impressive showing as the Super Bowl winning Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator on Feb. 9, the 39-year-old hot shot is at the forefront of a much-desired Raiders renaissance. To get there, […]
Raiders wide receiver Malik Benson Jr. excels during OTA’s
The Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver group has been a big subject this offseason. John Spytek was expected to make plenty of moves to help add more depth and explosiveness on the outside. It started with the team signing Jalen Nailor from the Minnesota Vikings. The next step was the draft, where they surprised fans […]
Linebacker Quay Walker offers hints on the Raiders’ upcoming defense
This early into the new regime, you have to give the Las Vegas Raiders coaching staff this: They come up with some noteworthy and downright hilarious descriptions of their players.

Mailbag: Will Las Vegas Raiders add No. 1 Receiver before training camp?
We’re at the beginning of the Las Vegas Raiders’ summer break before training camp, so we don’t have as many questions to dive into for this week’s mailbag. But we do have a handful of people who are curious about the Raiders’ roster, so let’s get to it! Q: Are the Raiders going to get […]
Las Vegas Raiders ‘likely landing spot’ in hypothetical Justin Jefferson trade
The Las Vegas Raiders don’t have a “No. 1 wide receiver” on their roster right now, and likely won’t find one until next offseason. One potential option could be trading with the Minnesota Vikings for Justin Jefferson, who CBS Sports’ Garrett Podell thinks will ask for a trade by the 2028 offseason due to the […]
Punter AJ Cole finds himself as longest tenured Raiders’ special teamer
The operation between the long snapper, holder, and place kicker is often overlooked, but supremely vital. Harken back to the 2012 rendition of the Oakland Raiders, where the loss of efficient and steady long snapper Jon Condo resulted in linebacker Travis Goethel being thrust into the role. The result was a nightmare. Two of Goethel’s […]
2021 Las Vegas Raiders Same Position Re-Draft
The 2021 draft turned into being one of the Raiders best classes in recent years, adding 5 proven starters across their 7 selections. That said, the Raiders did have a whiff in the first round, and arguably one of the worst whiffs in the 2020s, if not the worst. Las Vegas also failed to retain […]
2019 Las Vegas Raiders Same Position Re-Draft
The 2019 draft, a draft that was bound to be pivotal for the Raiders, holding three first round picks and four inside the top 40 of the class in general.
