The 2019 Raiders were not nearly as bad as most people made the team out to be, and if a few things went differently, they could have made the playoffs last season. The team had an incredible rookie class, a few bright spots on the team, and Derek Carr played well despite having no weapons.
This offseason, the organization did a nice job bringing in talented free agents, especially on the defensive side of the ball, fixing needs on all three levels. In the 2020 NFL Draft, they once again had multiple first round selections, adding an explosive wide receiver, and a cornerback who could be the answer as a starter alongside Trayvon Mullen.
