Is Tom Brady Holding Back Fernando Mendoza The Right Move?
Las Vegas Raiders part owner Tom Brady has said over and over, going all the way back to last year’s NFL postseason, that whoever gets drafted will sit. Remembering how advantageous sitting, learning and watching were to his early development. One of the key things he said was holding Mendoza off until the team was […]
How does Taron Johnson playing safety impact rest of Las Vegas Raiders’ secondary?
There’s an interesting development coming from the early stages of the Las Vegas Raiders’ training camp: veteran defensive back Taron Johnson has been getting reps at safety. During the offseason, the Raiders traded for Johnson to, presumptively, solve the defense’s nickelback problem. The former Buffalo Bill has almost exclusively been a slot corner, with about […]
Devin Lafayette flashing for Las Vegas Raiders
Recently I broke down the Las Vegas Raiders 3-3-5 defense, and their need for a big nickel. Additionally, the Raiders have shown a big emphasis on trying to fix their special teams unit that was a historically bad unit in 2025. The Raiders safety room currently features Jeremy Chinn at the strong safety/big nickel, Dalton […]
I’m rejoining Silver And Black Pride
It is both an honor and a privilege to rejoin SB Nation and cover your Las Vegas Raiders for silverandblackpride.com. The 2026 season is shaping up to be a memorable one and Raider Nation and I are here for all of it. Lots of exciting changes with the coaching staff, the players and the direction […]
Las Vegas Raiders Summer Scouting: SAF 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. The Raiders do have some […]
Submit your Las Vegas Raiders training camp mailbag questions!
The pads are clacking as we’re in the thick of Las Vegas Raiders training camp. Now that the “underwear Olympics”—as head coach Klint Kubiak referred to the first week of practice—are over, the Raiders’ position battles are starting to heat up like the Las Vegas weather. Also, we’re officially a week away from the Raiders’ […]
Brief former Raider Roger Craig inducted into Pro Football Hall of Fame this weekend
Once a Riader, always a Raider, right? That’s how the franchise treats their players and that is always evident when they celebrate the success of players who enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame even if they played just a brief time for the Silver and Black. That will be the case this weekend when […]
Las Vegas Raiders roster by jersey number, last name
The Las Vegas Raiders’ preseason is about to begin, and with a 90-man roster, it feels like the Silver and Black have a small army on the sideline. With so many names to keep tabs on and a lot of unknown players trying to establish themselves, you might find yourself saying: “Who’s that guy?” while […]
Raiders news: Fans not confident in Super Bowl run
There is, no doubt, that there is a lot of excitement about the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2025 season as they begin the Klint Kubiak and Fernando Mendoza era. But just how much excitement is there? Well, according to one study, the excitement about the 2026 Raiders does have a cap. In a recent study by […]

Segun Olubi’s special teams prowess, speed difficult to knock off roster
It’s easy to overlook Segun Olubi’s addition to the Las Vegas Raiders. The linebacker isn’t as big of a name as his fellow free agent additions like Quay Walker and Nakobe Dean. The former Green Bay Packer and Philadelphia Eagle, respectively, are set to be the faces of the Raider recalibration at the starting linebacker […]
Malik Benson making strong push for role on Las Vegas Raiders’ offense during training camp
It’s no secret that the third wide receiver spot on the Las Vegas Raiders’ depth chart is up for grabs during training camp. While 2025 second-round pick Jack Bech is the logical choice to win the job, Bech had an underwhelming rookie season and is far from a heavy favorite to earn the role on […]
Keenan Allen is a vet wide receiver Raiders fans would like to see add
The Las Vegas Raiders have been connected to veteran wide receivers all offseason. We recently asked our community members which of the remaining free agents would they want the Raiders to sign. The options were: The winner was longtime AFC West rival Keenan Allen. That makes sense to me. I wouldn’t touch Diggs or Hill […]
Maxx Crosby deserves his high ranking
Recently, ESPN polled NFL types to rank the top 10 pass-rushers in the NF going into the 2026 season. Las Vegas Raiders’ star pass-rusher Maxx Crosby ranked No. 4 on the list. We ran a FEED post, asking our community members if they think the ranking of Crosby was fair. The general consensus among our […]
Raiders news: 1 and done streak is probably over
The Las Vegas Raiders badly must break an ugly streak with their coaching leadership. Their past two head-coach hires, Antonio Pierce and Pete Carroll, both were fired after one full season as the permanent head coach of the franchise. That is a horrible sign of instability. The Raiders’ ownership, of course, has high hopes that […]

What does Quay Walker need to prove during Las Vegas Raiders’ training camp?
When Las Vegas Raiders star defensive end Maxx Crosby was asked about the team’s defensive offseason additions at the beginning of training camp, he mentioned one player by name: linebacker Quay Walker. “It was back in OTAs,” Crosby replied, “but I was out there doing a walkthrough, and I’m getting in a stance, and we’re […]
Las Vegas Raiders Summer Scouting: DT 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. The Raiders do have some […]
What if Jack Bech doesn’t take next step?
One of the many players the Las Vegas Raiders hope takes a big step forward this season is second-year wide receiver Jack Bech. He was a second-round pick last year. However, the TCU product, was slow to progress as a rookie and ended up not having much of an impact in 2025. He had just […]
Raiders fans foresee Fernando Mendoza becoming top 10 quarterback quickly
After ESPN ran it’s top 10 player positional rankings, we asked our community members in a FEED post how long they think it will take Las Vegas Raiders’ rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza to be considered a top 10 quarterback in the NFL. Our options were 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 or later or never. The winning […]
Raiders news: Will Klint Kubiak become more aggressive on 4th down?
Fourth-down aggression has gotten more common in the NFL among offensive playcallers in recent seasons. Still, some playcallers are more aggressive than others. It appears new Las Vegas Raiders head coach and offensive playcaller Klint Kubiak has been among the least aggresssie play callers on fourth down in recent years. Pro Football focus conducted a […]

The Year 2 bar for Raiders defensive tackle JJ Pegues
New year. New coaching staff. New evaluation period. Such is the case for head coach Klint Kubiak and his Las Vegas Raiders as the team continues its journey through training camp. The hotshot offensive-minded 39-year-old is the man leading the Silver & Black into the 2026 campaign and things are equal parts excitement and hope. […]
Updated Las Vegas Raiders Training Camp Measurables
Every year the Raiders release new updated measurables (height/weight) on the teams roster website, while these measurables aren’t made fully known they are updated, you can cross compare to other sites and previous years to identify the new values for each player. It’s always fascinating to find which players, often new to the organization, have […]
