2024 season: 4-13, fourth in AFC West, missed qualifiers
Preview: It was a difficult season for the Raiders, their first and the only one in the head coach Antonio Pierce. While they have won two of their last three games, the Raiders have lost 10 games in a row and missed the playoffs for a third consecutive campaign.
They had a hard time finding consistency, especially at the quarter-Arrière. They filmed between Gardner Minshew II, Aidan O’Connell and Desmond Ridder due to injuries and bad global games. The Raiders dismissed the attacking coordinator Luke Getsy after only nine games, as well as two other position coaches in November.
To worsen things, the raiders started winning at the end of the season. Although this could be a good sign for the franchise – to gain a little positive momentum in the offseason is rarely a bad thing – it has moved away the raiders to win what would be their first choice of recovery n ° 1 since 2007. The needs of the team (we will get there later), this finish could make this offseason much more difficult in Las Vegas.
The team made a very solid hiring at Pete Carroll to replace Pierce in the head coach. If someone wants to bring stable and veterans franchise leaders, it’s Carroll.
Key -free agents

RB Ameer Abdullah
CB Nate Hobbs
DT Adam Butler
Dt John Jenkins
LB Robert Spillane
LB Divine Deablo
S Tre’von Moehrig
Who is in / out: Raiders should work to keep this off -season Moehrig. The former TCU star had 104 plated, a career summit and two interceptions last season. It has been the safety of the first 15 in the league in interceptions, the rate of forced incompletion, plated for loss or no gain and defensive judgments in the last two seasons, according to Professional football focus. For a defense losing a good part of his entries, Moehrig is an easy to keep guy.
Key needs for free agent
Strategist
Back
Wide receiver
Offensive line
Why the holes? Apart from the defensive holes with which the team is confronted, the raiders must spend a little to give their new quarter of a solid support so that he can succeed immediately. Raiders have an average of 79.8 yards per game per game per floor last season, so a veteran in ball carrier would go away if they did not want to take a renowned recruit in the draft. A trooped wide receiver target would also help, and would support Brock Bowers, the tight wing. And, of course, a line player or two additional huts.
Do they have the money?
Yes. Raiders are offset with a $ 95 million estimated In Cap Space, which is second in the league behind the Patriots of New England.
Notable potential cuts
QB Gary Minshew II
C other james
Why they might have left: Both would be easy cuts for raiders and would save them a significant amount of money. Minshew, despite the start of a good chuck last season, signed a two -year contract with the team and has a salary capital number of $ 14 million next season. Raiders probably going to a new quarter-rear, there is no reason to keep it.
James lost his starting job against the Center recruit Jackson Powers-Johnson last season, and the team could save more than $ 3 million if they drop the veteran after June 1.

Good draft adjustment
Sheder Sanders, Qb, Colorado
The raiders must select a new quarter of a franchise with their first choice. There is no other real option here. The team has not had an appropriate leader in this position since the departure of Derek Carr, and it is almost impossible to build a successful team without a coherent presence leading the offensive.
And who better to do that than Sanders? The star of Colorado launched for 4,134 yards and 37 affected last season while reviving the Buffaloese program alongside her father, Deion, and the winner of the Heisman trophy, Travis Hunter. Sanders is a precise and precise smuggler who has delivered to the college level. Although it is not perfect right away, the potential is absolutely there. Raiders need a good long -term QB franchise to bring stability to the franchise, and Sanders is this guy.
Addressing the quarter-arre
Las Vegas’ fantastic prospects continue to depend on obtaining a capable quarterly, because it remains the first position of need for the team. Raiders could take a step in the project or through the free agency, but fantasy managers implore Las Vegas to ensure that Brock Bowers is a QB. Bowers has the top 10 of the rise in fantasy, but its 112 captures as a recruit led to five modest affected. The upgrade of the Raiders at the quarter-arre would move the needle. –Dalton del Don
