Overall

This Oakland Raider team is dramatically improved upon from 2014. The offense has it’s potential weak spot, but still looks poised to not only crawl out of the cellar, but blow the doors off of it. The defense has been greatly improved on all levels. There is a new fire about the entire organization because of the new coaching staff. It’s an exciting time to be a Raider fan if you are being honest as this team looks better on paper than it did 365 days ago.

RAIDERS OVERALL GRADE: B+

To become a complete team, there are still some pieces that need to fall into place, and for all we know, they are already on the team, just waiting for their chance at Training Camp in a few weeks. This year’s Raiders will competitive, and will put them on the radar of the rest of the league.
