The Las Vegas Raiders, in general, will likely look a lot different going into 2026 then they currently stack up, one are of such is the offensive line where the Raiders are likely to make heavy attempts to overhaul what is currently the NFL’s 29th ranked unit. 2025 third round selection Caleb Rogers is looking like a potential piece to the offensive line going forward into 2026 and the rookie is earning his opportunity to start next year.
The former Texas Tech standout was selected 98th overall after a strong college career that saw him play in well over 4000...

The Week 18 matchup between the Las Vegas Raiders and the Kansas City Chiefs feels more like a formality than a competitive game. Both teams have already been eliminated from the playoffs and are expected to start backup quarterbacks, with Chris Oladokun making his third appearance for the Chiefs this season and Kenny Pickett playing in his sixth game for the Raiders. However, there’s a lot on the line in our Silver and Black Pride Pick’em competition as the last week of the regular season is the final opportunity to make a big push toward the top of the standings....

The end of this miserable Las Vegas Raiders season is finally here, as the Raiders will wrap up the 2025 campaign with a Week 18 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. We can finally breathe a big sigh of relief knowing that we only have to watch this Raiders team play one more game, and then it’s onto the offseason. So, for this week’s mailbag, we’ll continue focusing on the 2026 NFL draft and free agency. And I’m sure you all have some questions stored up since we didn’t do a mailbag with the holiday last week.
As always, anything...

Andy Reid trolling the Silver & Black is nothing new.
The Kansas City Chiefs head coach and primary offensive play caller makes no bones about making a mockery of the Las Vegas Raiders defense during his tenure. Remember the “Ring Around the Rosie” play Reid deployed just two seasons ago?
Kansas City had a spinning huddle on that particular play, then broke out of it to run a touchdown-scoring trick play. A holding call wiped out the score, however, on the very next play, Reid dialed up a traditional end around that resulted in a touchdown anyway.
Would Reid’s trolling...

Cam Miller’s career with the Las Vegas Raiders is over before it truly began.
Thursday, three days before the season finale, the rookie quarterback has left the Raiders’ practice squad and has signed with the Miami Dolphins’ 53-man man roster. That means, Miller, a sixth-round draft pick from North Dakota State, is now property of the Dolphins for the rest of his rookie contract unless he is waived in the future. But, Miller will now head to the Dolphins and be part of their 2026 offseason.
Either the Raiders didn’t think Miller was ready to be on the 53-man roster...

Here is a look at how the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2023 class fared in a 34-10 home loss to the New York Giants on Sunday and looking ahead to Week 18’s season finale at home game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Tyree Wilson:
Wilson played 65 percent of the snap with Maxx Crosby out for the season. Still, Wilson didn’t provide much of a pass-rush at all against New York. He should play a lot against Kansas City as another disappointing season comes to a close for the No. 7 overall draft pick.
Michael Mayer:
The second-round pick played 93...

Tommy Eichenberg, drafted in the fifth round in 2024, hasn’t made much of an impact at linebacker so far in his his young career.
However, the Ohio State product has become a strong continue for the Las Vegas Raiders as a special-teams player. In fact, he’s made some history.
The hard-hitting Eichenberg has 21 tackles on special teams so far this season. According to the Raiders’ public relations department, is the third most in the NFL by an special-teams player this season and it is the most by a Raiders’ player since special teams tackles became a stat in 1994....

Rookie cornerback Darien Porter was coming off a couple of tough outings heading into the Las Vegas Raiders’ Week 17 matchup with the New York Giants. Porter was targeted seven times against the Philadelphia Eagles and the Houston Texans, allowing five completions for 111 yards on top of drawing two flags, according to Pro Football Focus. However, the Iowa State product enjoyed the bounce-back performance he needed versus the Giants.
New York tested Porter just one time, and the third-round pick managed to come up with a pass breakup that prevented a touchdown. Additionally, he was credited with three tackles,...

In what is looking more and more like a preseason game, the Las Vegas Raiders are taking an August-game approach to Sunday’s season finale at home against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Las Vegas coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that he expects both Kenny Pickett and Aidan O’Connell to play in the game. As has been the expectation, starter Geno Smith is not expected to play because of an ankle injury he suffered Sunday against the New York Giants.
The Raiders, 2-14, will get the No. 1 overall draft pick in 2026 with a loss Sunday and, according to ESPN, have...

The Raiders defensive line has been up and down for the entire 2025 season, ranking high in run stop win rates, run stop rate, and overall TFL’s. As a pass rush unit they’ve been below average in most marks struggling to generate consistent pressure and sacks with lows in most marks. The interior defensive line has seen struggles with their overall talent, as Adam Butler and Thomas Booker headline the unit in what is likely one of the bottom 10 starting defensive tackle duos in the NFL. They’re quality depth players to pair with JJ Pegues, Tonka Hemingway, and Jonah...

Other than some draft-pick intrigue, there won’t be a lot of interest in Sunday’s season finale between the Las Vegas Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs at Allegiant Stadium.
However, there will be a storyline that will get some national attention. It may be the final game in the career of Chiefs future Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce. He is is expected to decide on his future after the season and there have been some indications that Kelce, 36, may be leaning toward calling it a career.
If that happens don’t expect the Raiders or their fan base to...
