Free Agency Preview: Raiders Have a Whole Heap of Holes

Neil Dutton reviews the Oakland Raiders 2018 season, outlines players the team could lose to free agency and offers his thoughts on potential reinforcements the team should look to sign.

2018 IN SUMMARY

2018 was the first year of the second coming of Jon Gruden for the Oakland Raiders, and it is fair to say that it wasn’t exactly a banner one.

They had no winning streaks all year but did have runs of three and five consecutive losses at various points of the season.

The Raiders had an issue with both scoring and allowing points all season long. They were 28th in points scored with 290, scoring less than ten points in four games. No team allowed more in the entire NFL than the Raiders 467. There were eight games that saw the Raiders opponents rack up 30 or more points, while both the Browns (Week 4) and the Chiefs (Week 13) dropped 40 burgers

Noah Fant: The More Things Stay the Same, the More They Change

It may have surprised some when Noah Fant, hitting free agency for the first time in his NFL career, decided to stay with the Seattle Seahawks. Fant signed a two-year deal, which left me scratching my head initially. I had high hopes for Fant landing on a new team, with the promise of an expanded role in an offense and a chance to finally realize…...

Can Mike Gesicki Return to Fantasy Relevance with the Cincinnati Bengals?

The Cincinnati Bengals made a move to bolster their receiving corps on Tuesday. They signed former Dolphins and Patriots TE Mike Gesicki to a one-year deal. Gesicki has been productive in the past, and his signing seems to fit the Bengals’ approach to the TE spot in recent years. But does this move, in the grand scheme of things, matter? Finding His Feet Gesicki came…...

Will Zack Moss Get on a Roll With the Cincinnati Bengals?

It’s all changed at the running back spot for the Cincinnati Bengals heading into the 2024 season. The team signed former Indianapolis Colts RB Zack Moss to a two-year, $8m deal.

Just another normal…...
