Raiders free agency: Eric Stokes atop group of cornerbacks who fit
While the defensive front is of primary concern, putting the secondary on the backburner is unwise for the Las Vegas Raiders. Sure, getting defenders that suit new defensive coordinator Rob Leonard’s 3-4 base defensive front is of utmost importance — namely getting more teeth to the pass rush that featured Maxx Crosby as the lone […]
Coby Bryant, Las Vegas Raiders’ top free safety options in free agency
Last season, the Las Vegas Raiders ranked 25th in the NFL with just eight interceptions.

That makes the position one of Las Vegas’ needs this offseason, but help could be […]

Tristen Kuhn 2026 NFL Draft Defense ‘My Guys’ – Combine
The concept of “my guys” is essentially a prospect you would pound the table for and/or someone that you are higher on than the consensus boards. In 2024, some notable prospects for me included Cam Hart, Michael Penix, DJ Glaze, Dylan McMahon, Jalyx Hunt, Graham Barton, Ruke Orhorohoro, and Brandon Dorlus. 2025 saw some notable […]
Raiders free agency: Center Tyler Linderbaum worth the chase and coin
New head coach, new offensive line, and a new unified direction.

Raiders’ Jonah Laulu provided best value of all defensive tackles
Tom Telesco didn’t accomplish a ton in his one year as the Las Vegas Raiders’ general manager (drafting Brock Bowers will always be a great decision, though), but he had some nice moments.

Jaelan Phillips, Odafe Oweh, Las Vegas Raiders top 3-4 EDGE options in free agency
Regardless of what happens with Maxx Crosby this offseason, the Las Vegas Raiders should be looking to add at least one edge defender to the roster.
