While the defensive front is of primary concern, putting the secondary on the backburner is unwise for the Las Vegas Raiders.

Tom Telesco didn’t accomplish a ton in his one year as the Las Vegas Raiders’ general manager (drafting Brock Bowers will always be a great decision, though), but he had some nice moments. Claiming defensive tackle Jonah Laulu off waivers was certainly one of them. The Las Vegas native was cut by the Indianapolis Colt […]
