Las Vegas Raiders: Surprising cut candidates at each position

Javin White, LB

Javin White is a player that a lot of Raiders fans were really excited about last season, and it appears that everyone is expecting him to make the roster this season. Personally, I do not see White being the player that many expect him to be, let alone seeing how he will find much playing time.

Nicholas Morrow, Nick Kwiatkoski, Cory Littleton, and Divine Deablo will see the majority of the playing time at the position, along with Tanner Muse set to make his debut. I would not see the release of Javin White being much of a surprise, but I think a lot of Raider Nation would be upset with it.

Remember, this is a kid who played his college ball at UNLV and is from Oakland, so he has ties to the areas the team currently plays in, and used to. It would be a great story to see him make the team, but with so much talent at linebacker coming back, he could be the odd man out.
