With training camp wrapping up a day early thanks to Jon Gruden giving the team a day off, we look at all the storylines from the past few weeks.

The Oakland Raiders finished training camp a day early, as new head coach Jon Gruden decided to give the team their last day of camp off. It has been a pretty interesting camp in Napa this summer, with a ton of new faces, and a whole new coaching staff in to change the team’s fortunes.

Heading into last season as a Super Bowl favorite, the Raiders imploded under Jack Del Rio and his staff, finishing with only six wins. Both side of the ball regressed in a big way, and it was clear to the organization that they had the wrong coaches in place.

Enter Gruden, who once took this franchise to the top of the AFC West, although it was over 15 years ago. All these years later, Gruden still comes to work every day with incredible fire, and it has rubbed off on not only the rookies, but the veterans as well this summer.

With the team heading back to Alameda for the rest of the preseason, let us look at the ten biggest storylines from another summer in Napa.
