The Oakland Raiders get their season started this coming Monday night and here a few players that will be worth pay attention to.

With all the nonsense that is going on surrounding the Antonio Brown drama, it is hard to focus on the fact the Oakland Raiders play a game in a few days.

Well, let’s get back on track as we all eagerly await Monday night when the Raiders face off against bitter rival the Denver Broncos. Both teams are coming off disappointing 2018 campaigns and would like nothing more than to give each other a week one loss.

For the Raiders, they enter 2019 with a revamped roster and many high expectations. Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock did a lot of work to revamp this organization and are looking to create long-term competitiveness and a winning culture.

And although they may be without their most significant offseason addition, there are still plenty of players to highlight. Veterans that had down 2018’s will look to bounce back while newcomers will be on a mission to establish themselves.

Here are some specific players that are worth watching this Monday night.
