The Las Vegas Raiders have an improved roster on both sides of the ball, and these are the five most underrated players on the team.

A move to a new city, a brand new building, and added expectations are what awaits the 2020 Las Vegas Raiders. Over the past two offseasons, general manager Mike Mayock has done a tremendous job revamping this roster, and the Raiders have their most complete group of players that they have had in a long time.

Looking at both sides of the ball, there are some names that stand out, and those who are widely regarded as some of the best in the game. On offense, Rodney Hudson, Josh Jacobs, and Darren Waller are a few that stand out, while Trayvon Mullen, Cory Littleton, and Maxx Crosby are stars on the defensive side of the ball.

Still, football will always be a team game, and while the Raiders do have some guys that get the recognition they deserve, there are plenty that do not. Flying under the radar is never a bad thing, but as we enter the 2020 NFL season, there are a handful of guys who are going to stand out in the Silver and Black.

The expectation is that this team will fight for a playoff spot in 2020, and these five underrated players are going to play a big part in their success.
