With the 2012 NFL Draft a few weeks away we feel that it is just as important to look at what has been done to know what needs to be done. We will start at 2007 and move forward throughout the week. So, without further adieu here is the Oakland Raiders 2007 draft class: Round […]

Oakland made quiet moves to bolster their linebacking corp over the last two years, in this article we will explore which is the best.  Drafting Rolando McClain in the first round certainly helped the beleaguered Silver and Black defense, but it was the addition of two cast offs that have the Raiders poised to be contenders in […]
