Rookies with best chance to be Week 1 starters on Las Vegas Raiders’ roster

While the 2026 NFL draft class is considered a foundational piece of the Las Vegas Raiders’ roster/rebuild, none of the 10 players drafted are currently slated to be a starter heading into training camp, according to Ourlads’ depth chart. Of course, the pecking order that the coaches have is what’s really important, and players can […]

Las Vegas Raiders Summer Scouting: WR Rankings

I broke down the 2027 scouting classes in my early summer scouting series, and the room has a ton of potential with a long list of potential standout players. I broke down the offense and defense in articles and I suggest reading those for a broad aspect of the room. These rankings are extremely early, […]

Raiders 2026 season: Who could go worst to first?

In the NFL, turnarounds can be fast and dramatic. Teams go from being one of the dregs of the league one season to a Super Bowl contender the next nearly every year. Let’s take a look at the eight teams that finished in last place in 2025 to see which teams have the best chance […]

What will Brock Bowers be worth when he’s extension eligible?

Recently, the tight end market began to move and it’s something Brock Bowers and the Las Vegas Raiders will be monitoring in the next year or so. Bowers, the Raiders’ brilliant first-round draft pick in 2024, will be eligible for a contract extension next offseason, after his third NFL season. I would expect the Raiders […]

Von Miller comments about having his eye on the Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders franchise has a history of dealing with Pass Rusher Von Miller. The former defensive player of the year and Super Bowl MVP has haunted the Raiders’ tackle for most of the last decade. Miller is past his prime at 37, but he is still producing in the NFL on the back […]

Tom Brady buys Fernando Mendoza’s first NFL rookie card

The Las Vegas Raiders’ new quarterback, Fernando Mendoza, has always looked up to Tom Brady. Even his demeanor and how he handles himself remind fans of what Brady brought to the table in terms of leadership. When he had his interview at the NFL combine, the Raiders had Brady on the phone to greet Mendoza. […]

Raider Nation is all in on Jeanty reaching 1,200 yards

The Las Vegas Raiders brought in Klint Kubiak to help with the offense. Kubiak’s expertise lies in the running game. The Seahawks ran the ball 5o percent of the time, and the new head coach is expected to bring that philosophy to Las Vegas. With Ashton Jeanty as the main back, it is expected that […]

Las Vegas Raiders Mailbag: Could DJ Glaze improve similarly to Kolton Miller?

We’re less than a week away from the Las Vegas Raiders’ rookies reporting to training camp, making this our last pre-camp mailbag of the summer. We’re continuing to dive into the Raiders’ roster, with a heavy emphasis on the offensive line since there are several position battles in the trenches. Let’s get to it! RaiderEddieInDenver […]

3 players on Las Vegas Raiders’ roster make ESPN’s Top 10 at their position

It’s become an annual tradition that ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler polls NFL executives, coaches and scouts to put together a list of the Top 10 players at each position heading into the upcoming season. Earlier this week, Fowler finished his rollout of each position for the 2026 campaign, and the Las Vegas Raiders’ roster has three […]

Klint Kubiak’s multiple tight end sets means Raiders’ depth is critical

Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer will grab the headlines — and for good reason. That Las Vegas Raiders tight end duo is slated to be used quite often in head coach Klint Kubiak’s offense as the play caller’s penchant to use multiple sets is well-documented. But it goes beyond two-tight end alignments. Kubiak isn’t shy […]

Fernando Mendoza versus Penn State, Part X of Las Vegas Raiders’ Mendoza Mania

Silver and Black Pride’s Mendoza Mania series is about to dive into one of the most iconic performances of the 2026 NFL draft No. 1 pick’s/new Las Vegas Raiders quarterback’s college career, as the matchup against Penn State is widely considered Fernando Mendoza’s “Heisman moment”. This was a definition of a hard-fought win for the […]

Raiders fans discuss last-minute needs for team

Training camp will start for the Las Vegas Raiders in less than two weeks. For our Tuesday Community Question topic this week, we asked our users to act like John Spytek and list any last-minute needs they think the team needs. Here are some of your responses: radrntn DT Raiderjoe They need another linebacker because […]

Raiders fans not in favor of a Terrion Arnold pursuit

Terrion Arnold in the Silver and Black? Not if many Las Vegas Raiders fans have anything to do it with. The 2024 first-round pick was recently released by the Detroit Lions because he is facing serious criminal charges in Florida. Still, reportedly, there is interest in the NFL in the talented, young cornerback. He has […]

Klint Kubiak needs to help spring Ashton Jeanty

There are a lot of ways new Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak can impact the offense as their new playcaller. Helping get 2025 first-round pick, running back Ashton Jeanty is one of them. The Raiders drafted Jeanty to bring explosive plays to the offense. It didn’t work last year. According to a recent […]

The Year 2 bar for Raiders defensive tackle Tonka Hemingway

The Las Vegas Raiders 2025 campaign was a factory of sadness. But that doesn’t mean the team was without it’s bright spots despite a 3-14 campaign. One of the shining lights: Fourth-round rookie Tonka Hemingway. The 6-foot-2 and 284-pound defensive tackle from South Carolina made the most of his limited snaps racking up four sacks […]

Las Vegas Raiders’ 2024 draft class battling obscurity during training camp

In the NFL, a player’s third season is often considered the “make-or-break” year for their career. So, it isn’t terribly surprising that the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2024 draft class as a whole has something to prove during training camp this summer. However, outside of Brock Bowers, there’s a decent chance that the seven other players […]

Cian Slone to push for Las Vegas Raiders roster

The Las Vegas Raiders signed 21 undrafted rookies this past off-season, though none have flashed as much as Raiders pass rusher Cian Slone. The undrafted rookie from NC State is coming off his lone season with the Wolfpack logging 61 tackles, 7 TFL, and just 1.5 sacks with an interception, fumble recovery, 14% pass rush […]

Submit your pre-Las Vegas Raiders’ training camp mailbag questions!

We are a week away from the Las Vegas Raiders’ rookies reporting to training camp on July 23, making this the last mailbag before the position battles are up and running. Of course, veterans won’t be there until the 28th, the following Tuesday, but this is one of your last chances to get any questions […]

Which free agent wide receiver would you pick for Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders have been connected to free-agent wide receivers all offseason and apparently will continue all the way to the start of the season unless they add one. It’s debatable if the team needs to add a player at the position. They do have several young receivers. Plus, team officials have said they […]

NFL analyst not expecting greatness from Raiders’ offensive line

There is hope for improvement for the Las Vegas Raiders’ offense in the 2026 season and a big reason is the offensive line. The Raider’s offensive line was dreadful last season. It was caused by a combination of poor play, injuries and bad coaching. This year, the Raiders’ added free-agent prize, center Tyler Linderbaum and […]

Raiders OG Spencer Burford has the upper hand to become a starter

The Las Vegas Raiders’ offensive line struggled last season, prompting a new coaching staff to take over the group. Rick Dennison was brought in to help turn around the corps, hopefully elevate their performance, and allow Ashton Jeanty room to run and keep the quarterbacks upright. One of the players added in free agency was […]
