Now that most of the dust has settled on the free agency market, what positions can the Las Vegas Raiders address in the 2026 NFL Draft?

The Las Vegas Raiders should try to get another first-round pick. Or should they?

The Las Vegas Raiders could add another offensive lineman in the 2026 NFL Draft or in free agency, but let's take a look at that group right now.

The Las Vegas Raiders may be closer to competing than expected now that Maxx Crosby is back in the fold.

The trade with the Baltimore Ravens fell through, and Maxx Crosby is back with the Las Vegas Raiders. But could another team come calling?

Las Vegas Raiders cornerback Eric Stokes joined the Silver and Black to get his career back on track. He did that and more, earning a massive payday.

The Las Vegas Raiders were one of the most active teams once the free agency window opened on Monday.

The Las Vegas Raiders now have another first-round pick. Who may they consider with the selection they received from the Baltimore Ravens?

Maxx Crosby is no longer a Las Vegas Raider.

Why did the Las Vegas Raiders and Geno Smith not see more success?

The Las Vegas Raiders must find a running back to backup Ashton Jeanty. Could that come in the 2026 NFL Draft?

The Las Vegas Raiders are looking for a wingman for Ashton Jeanty. Will that come in free agency?
