Las Vegas Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders are filled with playmakers on the offensive side of the ball with Davante Adams, Josh Jacobs, Hunter Renfrow and recently signed Jakobi Meyers. However, the defense still could use some additional players, particularly at defensive tackle.

The Raiders are set at defensive end with Maxx Crosby and Chandler Jones but need help up the middle, even after claiming Jerry Tillery during the season last year when the Chargers released the former first round pick. Tillery re-signed with the Raiders this offseason but Las Vegas could look for an upgrade to play alongside him.

While the Raiders do need an upgrade at defensive tackle, they may be hesitant to make a trade because neither Tillery or Ed Oliver are big defensive tackles. When both are on the field, opposing teams could have success running the ball.

However, those same teams could struggle to block this line with Oliver in passing situations and in a division with Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert, and Russell Wilson the priority should be to have a defense that can generate pressure on the quarterback.
