Raiders roster: 2021 Post-minicamp 53-man roster prediction

Special Teams and Final Thoughts

  • K: Daniel Carlson
  • P: AJ Cole
  • LS: Trent Sieg

The special team’s group will most likely remain the same, with Trent Sieg snapping it to the boots of A.J. Cole and Daniel Carlson. They should be able to mimic the same efficiency and production that they had last season, or improve upon it.

In Carlson, the Raiders could have one of the best young kickers in the game, and he is another player to keep an eye on this season. In fact, we feel he could be in for a Pro Bowl season with the Raiders, this after showing himself to be incredibly accurate, and incredibly clutch during the 2020 season.

All of the additions made by Las Vegas this offseason should only improve the team’s productivity and make them a more threatening playoff contender in 2021. Now that minicamp is over, everyone should have a better idea of what the final 53-man roster should shape up to be.

Unless there is some shocking standout player, then odds are that the roster will look like this or very close to it.
