Make no mistake, trading Khalil Mack was the dumbest move in Raiders franchise history. It’s like Lawrence Taylor, Reggie White or Derrick Thomas getting traded while in their respective primes. Sure, you can talk about how statistically bad the Oakland Raiders defense has been with Mack but in 2016, the Raiders went 12-4 because Mack made plays to seal games after quarterback Derek Carr threw game-winning touchdown passes.
But now the question is do the Raiders have enough on defense to win now?
Well, with Jon Gruden coaching a healthy Derek Carr and his fully loaded offense, they might.
