Las Vegas Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders have been nothing short of active this offseason. They have made some big moves that they hope will put them over the top after a few disappointing endings to their seasons.

This is a sleeper team in the AFC, especially with their recent additions. They have added two stars in the likes of Chandler Jones and Davante Adams. Could they possibly make a third splash move?

It certainly seems like they would be willing to as they have not shied away from being aggressive.

When you look at their linebacking core which consists of Justin March-Lillard, Denzel Perryman, Micah Kiser, and Divine Deablo, it is not exactly the most solid group of players.

Denzel Perryman is a good player in his own respect and Divine Deablo was serviceable after switching from safety in college to linebacker in the pros, but adding a playmaker like Deion Jones would help them out immensely. 

The Raiders have obviously shown a willingness to be as aggressive as need be. In the event that Deion Jones becomes available, do not count them out of the picture as they have already made a huge trade this offseason with the addition of Davante Adams.
