Oakland Raiders Building Around Two Big Blocks

In the Oakland Raiders’ 26-24 win in their home finale, you can clearly see who they are mainly building around. Don’t get me wrong, McKenzie has drafted well the last two years and there are a lot of young players played well Sunday. But you can still see that this team is mainly built around 2014 1st-round pick Khalil Mack and 2nd-round pick Derek Carr.

It’s not often do that an NFL team gets the best football player and defensive player in the draft and a franchise quarterback. The Raiders actually got more than that but we’re going to look at the future stars from the first and second round now. My bad, their not going to be stars, the’re going to be superstars and Sunday was a good illustration of just who they’re going to be as they close fine rookie campaigns.
