As many NFL teams continue to prepare for training camp, rosters are being filled out in an effort to try and find the best 53 players for every team.

So far, everyone has seemed to want to talk about Oakland Raiders pass rusher Arden Key’s weight. He doesn’t mind, since it beats talking about how his team averaged less than a sack a game last season. Key had a frustrating rookie season, coming in at 238 pounds and battling a shoulder injury. The 6-foot-5 […]

The Oakland Raiders have put an emphasis on the secondary in recent years. It appears safeties Karl Joseph and Johnathan Abram have already started to hit it off. The two have gotten acquainted through OTAs and mandatory minicamp. Karl Joseph is admittedly impressed with what he has seen from Abram so far, via the team’s […]

When the Oakland Raiders first traded for Antonio Brown, there were a lot of question marks. Sure, he was the best wide receiver in the NFL – but what about all the other issues? Brown seemed to have a lot of problems with his old team, the Pittsburgh Steelers. He clashed with other players, as […]

Emmanuel Sanders is known as one of the hardest-working players in the NFL.

Needless to […]

Offensive lineman Richie Incognito has been making a positive impression with the Oakland Raiders. Raiders head coach Jon Gruden spoke highly of Incognito to NBC Sports Bay Area’s Scott Bair (via Pro Football Talk’s Charean Williams) on June 11. He’s pretty good. I like him. He’s a Pro Bowl left guard. The last time he […]

By this point, everyone knows what happened between Antonio Brown and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now on the Oakland Raiders, it’s safe to say Brown isn’t a big fan of the Steelers anymore. He has called out Ben Roethlisberger and JuJu Smith-Schuster on multiple occasions in fact. That hasn’t stopped Smith-Schuster from trying to keep the […]

The Rams have been the NFL’s trendsetters over the past couple years.

From a rookie player, with all the stuff safeties have to know, he’s […]

Tyrell Williams has had an interesting career path. The Oakland Raiders receiver has been unheralded his whole life. He wasn’t heavily recruited out of high school and was forced to attend Western Oregon instead of playing at a major college program. Williams didn’t let the adversity impact him, and he put up huge numbers at […]

The Oakland Raiders had a rough season in 2018, that isn’t a secret. The defense was terrible all year, and in particular, the pass-rush struggled to generate any pressure. The Raiders made bold moves to address the issue this offseason, including drafting Clelin Ferrell fourth overall in April’s NFL Draft. In addition to Ferrell, they […]

Since coming into the league in 2014, Derek Carr has had a lot of ups and downs with the Oakland Raiders, but the hope is that he can prove this season he is still the best long-term option for the team going forward. The stats speak for themselves, but there is a lot more to […]

With current Oakland Raiders wide receiver Antonio Brown officially out of the picture in the “Steel City,” it is now fellow wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster’s time to shine for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Antonio Brown is known for his questionable behavior and his me-first attitude, but after his whole situation with the Pittsburgh Steelers, you would think that maybe he would have changed. That doesn’t appear to be the case. When Brown was first introduced as a member of the Oakland Raiders back on March 13, he said […]

The guy who has come out looking the best in this seemingly never-ending beef between Antonio Brown and the Pittsburgh Steelers is wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, a fun-loving guy who genuinely does not seem all that confrontational.

In 2016, Alabama, as it often does, stole one of the best recruits in that year’s class. It wasn’t supposed to be that way. Before landing in Tuscaloosa, Josh Jacobs was living with his dad moving from cars to motels. As a recruit, he was off the radar. That changed after uploading his tape to […]

Critics who look at the Oakland Raiders and point to a chaos factor have another argument at their disposal.
