Nickel back/ linebacker vs 2 wrs sets is what I think he will be. Looking at the linebackers, pretty sure we only keeping 2 on the field most of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raiders have been throwing rookies into starting roles for a while now and not getting much return on their development. If the rookie is ready, play him. But there is something to getting them ready for the mental side of the game. A bad showing can completely tank their confidence. A bad system can also do that though. See Tre'Von Moehrig. During his media session on Monday he flat out said that he had no idea what he was doing last season under Graham. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really think this is deviled advocate because this is nothing opposite of what I said already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id be more surprised if Bennett starts right off the bat given he’s a 4th round rookie, Long and Facyson likely to be in the mix.

Exactly you just signed Peters a guy like Shelley coming of a good season and Hobbs do you really just start Bennett, I don't think so, but he should get plenty of playing time and worked in to get acclimated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Would love nothing more then see Jakorian Bennett step up when the pads come on and take that starting job. Would be a huge boost to the defense and for the front office to see a 4th round pick get a starting role right away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justwinning Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) Been reading that David Long has impressed so far. We'll see when the pads come on though. Edited August 1, 2023 by Justwinning 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, didn’t we also give Facyson a 2 year deal ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
