Is Jack Del Rio’s Influence in the Draft a Good Thing?

If it aint broke, don’t fix it….In 2014 the Oakland Raiders draft strategy behind GM Reggie McKenzie was damn near perfect.

McKenzie showed what patience and excellent scouting can bring to a NFL franchise. Solid contributors and potential stars in a rookie class filled with depth and promise.

But rookies can only get you so far, and the losses mounted resulting in another losing season for the silver and black. In the end, a new coaching staff was hired led by the experienced Jack Del Rio, and GM Reggie McKenzie earned himself at least another year guiding this pirate ship.
