The Las Vegas Raiders' new general manager, Tom Telesco, is the Raiders' first veteran at the position. With over 30 years of scouting and front-office experience, Mark Davis hoped that a seasoned decision-maker could push the team to success.
Telesco was the GM of the Los Angeles Chargers for the past ten seasons. He built teams full of stars, but it didn't lead to consistent wins on the football field. The former Chargers GM's efficiency with first—and second-round picks is part of the reason he built preseason excitement. He drafted Pro Bowl and All-Pro players who produced at a high level.
