New Season Kicks Off!

After getting hit with with the injury bug throughout the season, the Raiders ended the campaign with 5 straight losses and another top 10 pick.

It's obvious something needs to change.

The Raiders were finally able to find a QB after Carr leaving a year ago in SB winning Brock Osweiler. Osweiler will look to captain a young talented team that has yet to live up to potential.

In the draft the Raiders picked up defensive ace Rashan Gary with the 8th ovr pick. A player that in time is bound to become an impact player on the defensive line. 2nd round pick Kristian Fulton gives Oakland a much needed young prospect at the db position, and should fit in right away. The biggest issue last season was pass offense and defense, but with all the later picks being used on recievers and corners we should see a step up in these areas.

These young players will complement the big name talent the team already have in Cooper, Folston, Serigne, Cunningham and Smith and superstar Khalil Mack in hopefully a great season for Raider Nation
