Mailbag: What defensive scheme is best for Raiders’ projected 53-man roster?

With training camp wrapping up yesterday and one preseason game left to play for the Las Vegas Raiders, we’re so close to the regular season we can almost reach out and touch it! Cutdown day is around the corner too—Tuesday, August 29—as we start to shift our focus to the games that count in this week’s mailbag.

Q: Looking at the personnel that you believe will be on the 53-man roster, what scheme do you believe would be best for the defense to be competent? Also, with improved play from the secondary, do you think we could be a 12-18 range?
