Should The Raiders Use 2021 Draft Picks Or Trade Them

General manager Mike Mayock, the former scouting and draft guru of NFL Network, has committed a ton of draft capital on defense in the last three years. However, his players selected: Johnathan Abram, Clelin Ferrell, Maxx Crosby, Damon Arnette, Isaiah Johnson, Tanner Muse, Quinton Bell, Trayvon Mullen, P.J. Hall, Arden Key, Nick Nelson, Azeem Victor, Maurice Hurst, and Amik Robertson are collectively not getting it done. Biggest weakness The Las Vegas Raiders have a ginormous weakness to strengthen. Defensively they were extremely inconsistent and in desperate need of coaching. Former defensive coordinator Paul Guenther was not the most relatable coach and his inability to communicate his scheme to the players led to his unceremonious departure in week 14. COVID-19 wreaked havoc on NFL veteran's normal preseason preparation, but it also gave the rookies of 2020 no chance to get acclimated to NFL football before the word go and the season opened up.

No fans in the new Allegiant Stadium was strange to watch with no crowd, some NFL teams had some fans but owner Mark Davis said if all can't go then nobody should go including himself. Still, 2020 was thought to be the season the Raiders would finally make the playoffs and show off their new weapons in the 2019 draft and 2020 draft plus the money the team spent on defense it just appeared that the team was finally done rebuilding and everything was set for this team to take the big stage.
