It’s back-to-back primetime games for the Las Vegas Raiders as Week 11 pits them against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. As a reminder, with the Raiders sitting at 2-7 and three games back from a Wild Card spot entering the weekend, the focus for key matchups will be on young players who have a future with the organization.
On that note, Raider Nation will likely get to watch a rookie whom the fanbase has been asking to see hit the field for several weeks now, guard Caleb Rogers.
As mentioned above, it’s...

With a condensed schedule last week, the mailbag column is back for the Las Vegas Raiders’ Week 11 Monday Night Football matchup against the Dallas Cowboys! Of course, with the Raiders sitting at 2-7, a lot of people’s attention is on the offseason right now. So, feel free to drop any questions you have about coaching changes, the 2026 NFL draft and free agency.

Here is a look at how the Las Vegas Raiders’ rookie class fared in a 10-7 loss at the Denver Broncos in week 9 and what it means looking ahead to Monday night’s home game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Tyree Wilson:
The No. 7 overall draft pick just 34 percent of the snaps down from his season average of 44 percent. It seems he’s loosing snaps to Charles Snowden. He played a season-high 44 percent of the snaps and he could continue to take some of Wilson’s play time. Wilson just isn’t taking the next step.
Michael Mayer:
The second-round...

The Las Vegas Raiders are getting ready for their Monday Night showdown with the Dallas Cowboys. It will be infront of the home crowd but based on the team’s record it could be mostly Cowboys fans.
Chip Kelly and the Raiders offense will hope to bounce back after another bad performance. It was third game of the season where they scored...

As long as Maxx Crosby is in his prime, he will go into every NFL season as a favorite to win the Defensive Player of the Year award.
That was the case in 2025 for Crosby, who turned 28 in August.
Crosby has turned in another solid start to the season. However, because of a lack of his sack numbers and the Raiders’ poor 2-7 start, Crosby is no longer considered a favorite to win the award.
According to our friends at FanDuel Sportsbook, Crosby’s odds to win the Defensive Player of the Year Award to 80-1. He was price...

The Las Vegas Raiders are heading into the back half of the season (the 17-game schedule messes with the math) at 2-7. Let’s take a quick review of the first half and what it means for the final half of the season.
Quick summary of the first half:
It’s been pretty disappointing. Pete Carroll was brought to Las Vegas for his experience and bring competition. But this team is arguably worse than last season’s team that caused Antonio Pierce to go one and done. The Raiders are just mistake filled on a weekly basis.
Offensive MVP:
Brock Bowers. Even thought...

With Jackson Powers-Johnson going on injured reserve and potentially missing the rest of the 2025 season, it sounds like the Las Vegas Raiders’ coaching staff has made the decision to put rookie Caleb Rogers at the top of the depth chart at right guard. “I couldn’t think of a better opportunity week one as a starter to make me better than to go against someone like Quinnen Williams,” Rogers said on Tuesday via Jesse Merrick of Silver & Black Sports Network.
The move comes as a bit of a surprise since free-agent addition Alex Cappa has been the Raiders’ second-string...

Last week, at the NFL trade deadline, the Las Vegas Raiders only made one trade as they sent starting wide receiver Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars for fourth and sixth-round picks in 2026.
New general manager John Spytek didn’t pull off any other trades.
There had been some chatter that centered around tight end Michael Mayer, guard Jackson Powers-Johnson, cornerback Eric Stokes and pass-rusher Malcolm Koonce. But in the end, the Raiders decided not to go in full fire-sale mode even though they were 2-6 at the deadline.
Our community members mostly agreed with the approach. Nearly 90 percent...

At the moment, the Raiders have 17 pending free agents after this season (in addition to 2 ERFA and 4 RFA). At roughly the halfway point the compensatory pick values for pending free agents is starting to come into picture with being able to project future contracts and the snap counts as well. For the Raiders, their pending free agent values are as followed:
Note: All compensatory picks for the 2026 free agents is factored into the 2027 draft. Right now, the Raiders are projected a 4th and 5th round compensatory pick in 2026 for the losses of Tre’Von Moehrig...
