BOOM.
There it is.
We’re all waiting for the Las Vegas Raiders to join the party and, on the third day of free-agent movement, they did. In a big way.
In one wild five-minute swing, the Raiders signed superstar pass-rusher Chandler Jones and acquired their new No. 1 cornerback in the form of Rock Ya-Sin. Gone is standout pass-rusher Yannick Ngakoue.
My initial reaction to the blockbuster? I like it very much and I’m impressed by the direction, creativity and guts shown by new general manager Dave Ziegler and Josh McDaniels. They saw all the wild and impressive moves the other teams in the AFC West were making and they knew they had to swing big,
In short, I think these moves makes the Raiders’ defense better and it was accomplished pretty easily.
