Strengths, weaknesses and X-factors too
The Las Vegas Raiders made some big splash moves this offseason, highlighted by trading for Davante Adams and signing Chandler Jones, which has undoubtedly added some star power to the roster. However, the Raiders’ lineup is still struggling to get some notoriety from the analytics community.

221 days until the Super Bowl.
While NFL training camp is still a few short weeks away, Pro Football Focus recently took a closer look at the Las Vegas Raiders’ roster. Their secondary is their “X-factor” in 2022, but what about their biggest strength?
The Las Vegas Raiders did a good job of getting Derek Carr weapons this offseason. But their offensive line remains a work in progress. As of this writing, it’s hard to tell what the starting lineup will look like in Week 1.

Tackle machine was on one against Chicago
Last year was a breakout season for Las Vegas Raiders linebacker Denzel Perryman. He racked up 154 total tackles — more than double his previous single-season high of 73 — en route to his first Pro Bowl appearance. While Perryman had 10 double-digit tackle performances in 15 outings, perhaps his most impressive game from last year came in Week 5 against the Chicago Bears.
That week, he...

Potential first-rounder to keep an eye on
Cornerback is expected to be one of the Las Vegas Raiders' biggest needs next offseason as their top three players on the depth chart, Trayvon Mullen, Rock Ya-Sin, and Anthony Averett, have contracts that expire at the end of the year. While there’s still plenty of time between now and when Dave Ziegler, Josh McDaniels and the Raiders’ brass have to solve that problem, one guy to keep an...

PFF is low on the Raiders secondary
The Las Vegas Raiders secondary is one of the question marks entering the season. The Raiders didn’t address it aggressively in the draft or free agency. The only moves were the trade for Rock Ya-Sin and Anthony Averett, and both these players are not premier NFL starters.
Losing veteran and stand-out 2021 player Casey Hayward hurts but Patrick Graham must have confidence in the group. PFF is not impressed with...

222 days until the Super Bowl.
In the middle of their 2022 schedule, the Las Vegas Raiders face a tricky but manageable slew of games that they need to win. The 2022 NFL season is going to be a gauntlet of unprecedented proportions for every AFC team.
When the Packers traded Davante Adams to the Raiders, it sent shockwaves throughout the NFL. Widely considered one of the top wide receivers in the league, the thought of trading him seemed unthinkable.
The Las Vegas Raiders made a flurry of moves this offseason, on both sides of the ball. A couple of those involved some big-name players, but some under-the-radar signings have the potential to surprise fans this year.
It’s a slow time for the NFL, so Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow joined in the fun about hot dogs. You know that there’s nothing much going on if Adam Schefter is tweeting about legendary competitive eater Joey Chestnut.
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams felt the need to speak his mind in defense of his fellow wideout Deebo Samuel. For the uninitiated, Samuel denied an autograph to one of the attendees at his youth camp.
