Oakland Raiders: 5 players whose stock has dropped this preseason
By Kenny King
While the Oakland Raiders are 3-0 in the preseason, that does not mean all players are standing out. Here are five guys who stock has dropped this summer.
The 2019 Oakland Raiders are almost a completely new look football team from 2018. Head Coach Jon Gruden and General Manager Mike Mayock set out to build the overall speed and strength of the team, while building the offense around franchise quarterback Derek Carr.
The tandem used two of their three first round picks to add incredible pieces to the defense, two high character guys who have tremendous motors. Their other first rounder, Josh Jacobs, should be the do-everything back that Gruden has been missing since returning to Oakland.
With three preseason games in the book, the Raiders have certainly looked good on both sides of the ball, and head into Thursday with a perfect 3-0 record. While records do not stand for anything in the preseason, there is no doubt that this is a much more complete team than last year, and the franchise is heading in the right direction.
With the addition of talent, some players have seen a decrease in production, here we take a look at five players whose stock has dropped this preseason.
