The Las Vegas Raiders roster has been reshuffled since the 2021 NFL Draft and we take a look at the 53-man roster heading into the summer

About a week has passed since the 2021 NFL Draft and the Las Vegas Raiders roster already looks significantly different than it did just a few weeks ago. The Raiders made seven selections last weekend and also made some corresponding moves as a result of those picks.

A veteran player or two was released and another was added to the roster as the Raiders now have a much better idea of what their roster will look like come Week 1 after the draft. Of course, there is still plenty of work to do when it comes to evaluating the veterans, drafted rookies, and undrafted free agents before the season begins.

There will also be some tough decisions to be made as some cuts and trades will come down to a simple numbers game around salary or making room to load up on certain positions. Preseason injuries will of course be a factor as well but we here at Just Blog Baby will take a crack at predicting the final 53-man roster just after the conclusion of the 2021 NFL Draft.
