Specialists (3): Daniel Carlson, Trent Sieg, AJ Cole

When it comes to the specialists, the Las Vegas Raiders have arguably the best young trio in all of football. Daniel Carlson has become one oft he more clutch kickers in the game, and AJ Cole is fresh off a Pro Bowl season for the Silver and Black.

Trent Sieg earned the starting long snapper job a few summers ago, and has never looked back, building an incredible rapport with both Carolson and Cole. If Las Vegas can keep these guys under contract in the coming years, I see no reason why this trio should ever be replaced, as long as they continue to progress.

Las Vegas Raiders with heavy expectations entering the 2022 season

The Las Vegas Raiders have struggled to play consistent football for the last 20 years, but that will change with heavy expectations on them in 2022.

So there you have it, our first go at what could be the Las Vegas Raiders 53-man roster when they kick off the season at ‘home’ against Los Angeles in September. We have a lot of time before that game kicks off, and a lot can happen in the summer months, but based on pure talent and depth, Raiders fans have to be excited about the upcoming season.
