Raiders strengthen team with key acquisitions this offseason

The Las Vegas Raiders have made significant changes this offseason, hiring former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and trading for quarterback Geno Smith. They also added safety Jeremy Chinn, linebacker Elandon Roberts, and running back Raheem Mostert. The Raiders have extended defensive end Maxx Crosby, enhancing their defense, which ranked 15th in yards allowed last season. With Carroll's experience, the team aims to improve its defensive performance. The Raiders hold the sixth overall pick in the upcoming draft, allowing them to address key needs. They could select a wide receiver or running back to strengthen their offense or focus on a top defensive player to bolster their defense.
