phughes+FollowThornton Turning Heads at Raiders CampIs Dont'e Thornton Jr. the steal of the Raiders' draft? Despite being a Day 3 pick, the rookie is already running with the starters over second-rounder Jack Bech, according to insider reports. Thornton’s blazing 4.30 speed and big-play ability seem to fit Chip Kelly’s deep-ball offense perfectly. Could this be the start of a new rivalry in the WR room? Raider Nation, are you buying the hype or worried about Bech’s slow start? #RaiderNation #NFLDraft #DontEThornton #Sports #Football50Share
Jay Williams+FollowThornton Jr. Winning Over Raider Nation EarlyDont'e Thornton Jr., the former Vols deep threat, is already making waves in Vegas—not just with his game, but with his personal touch. At Raiders media day, he left his seat to high-five fans, instantly connecting with Raider Nation. With a wide-open WR room and his knack for big plays (remember that 86-yarder vs. Vandy?), could he be the next breakout star in Sin City? #RaiderNation #Vols #NFLRookies #Sports #Football30Share
Jay Williams+FollowRaiders' D-Line Depth: Secret Weapon?Anyone else noticing how the Silver & Black’s defensive tackle group is quietly becoming a real force? With rookies like JJ Pegues and Tonka Hemingway joining a rotation that already features big bodies like Leki Fotu and hometown kid Jonah Laulu, plus Tyree Wilson shifting inside at times, this unit could be a game-changer—especially with Wilkins still rehabbing. Coach Graham’s praise for their relentless effort and tight bond has me hyped for the trenches battle this season. Could this be the edge we need against AFC West rivals? #RaiderNation #NFL #DefensiveLine #Sports10Share
glen25+FollowChip Kelly Unleashing Tre Tucker’s SpeedRaider Nation, it looks like Chip Kelly is already doing what Getsy couldn’t—getting the most out of Tre Tucker. After a quiet rookie year and a rough 2024, Tucker is finally flashing his big-play ability at OTAs, torching the defense for deep TDs from Geno. With Pete Carroll and Kelly calling the shots, could Tucker become the Silver & Black’s next breakout star? Let’s talk: is this the year the Raiders’ offense finally catches up to the D? #RaiderNation #TreTucker #ChipKelly #Sports40Share
Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowRaiders’ O-Line Battle Heating Up at LGRaider Nation, the trenches are almost set! Four spots on the Silver & Black’s offensive line look locked after OTAs, with Kolton “The Anchor” Miller, rookie sensation JPJ, Cappa, and Glaze holding it down. But left guard is still up for grabs—Meredith, the underdog who didn’t allow a sack last year, is pushing Parham, the steady starter. Who do you want protecting Aidan O’Connell’s blindside? Let’s hear your takes! #RaiderNation #NFL #LasVegasRaiders #OTAs #OffensiveLine #Sports20Share
glen25+FollowIs the Jags Game a Trap for the Raiders?Looking at the Silver & Black’s 2025 slate, the schedule seems pretty chill early on—bye week at 8, alternating home/away, and only one real primetime spotlight against the Bolts. But after that, things get dicey. The real sleeper? That Week 9 matchup with the Jags. With Jacksonville loading up in the draft (Travis Hunter, anyone?) and the Raiders coming off a bye, this could be a classic trap game. Raider Nation, are we sleeping on Duval? #RaiderNation #NFL2025 #TrapGame #Jaguars #PeteCarroll #Sports10Share
glen25+FollowHometown Hero Hajj-Malik Joins the Silver & BlackDid you see the Raiders just signed Hajj-Malik Williams, the dual-threat QB who lit it up for UNLV last season?

With O’Connell possibly on the move, could Williams shake up the backup QB battle? Raider Nation, what do you think about this local legend getting his shot? #RaiderNation #HajjMalikWilliams #LasVegasRaiders #UNLV #NFLDraft #QuarterbackBattle #Sports10Share
glen25+FollowOrlovsky Doubts Jeanty’s Impact in VegasRaider Nation, what do you think of Dan Orlovsky’s take on our new backfield star? The former NFL QB praised Ashton Jeanty’s talent but questioned if he can really shine behind what he calls a “below-average” O-line. Orlovsky says unless the Silver & Black fix the trenches fast, Jeanty’s impact could be limited. With Pete Carroll now coaching and some new linemen drafted, do you think Jeanty can break the Raiders’ rushing curse?

glen25+FollowRaiders Wheel & Deal: Double Trade-Back DramaWow, the Silver & Black front office is playing chess, not checkers! After trading back with the Fins at pick 37, the Raiders pulled another shocker by flipping pick 48 to the Texans. That’s two trade-backs in the second round alone! Looks like they’re stacking mid-round picks instead of chasing a single star. Is this a genius rebuild move or are we missing out on impact talent? Raider Nation, how do you feel about Ziegler’s wheeling and dealing? #RaiderNation #NFLDraft #TradeTalk #SilverAndBlack #Sports2916Share
Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowAre the Raiders Eyeing a Bold Draft Move?Silver and Black Nation, things are heating up! With Pete Carroll now steering the ship and John Spytek calling the shots, rumors are swirling that the Raiders might trade up in the draft—IF their guy is still on the board.
