2026 Draft - Raiders & all teams (April 23-25)
Obvious Mendoza #1 no consideration of trading that pick.
But who you got picks 2 - 4 thats going to help Mendoza.
#2 Raiders should be able to select WR Chris Bell or WR KC Concepcion with our early 2nd.
#3 I forget who it was, but someone here mentioned that the best pure dominant RT coming out of college could be got in the 3rd. And stated hes played his whole career at RT, and not being moved around the line.
Sounds like solid gets
Id hope the rest of the draft is building the trenches, with maybe 1 DB in there
Who else you like ?

Will be interesting how Vrabel handles running an NFL team and probably going through a messy divorce and having his family all torn up.

Mendoza said ESPN can do whatever they want at his house.
I take it thell be cameras everywhere so I expect a bunch of takes.
Mendoza said they're roasting an entire pig for 24 hours. Something they do during celebrations and his uncles cook it. Heavy Cuban influence.
It should be fun for his entire family along with all the people who helped him get to where hes at.

Yeah, that's gotta take its toll...wonder if he'll voluntarily step away for a while or if the Pats eventually make the decision for him?DanKD wrote: Thu Apr 23, 2026 10:13 am Will be interesting how Vrabel handles running an NFL team and probably going through a messy divorce and having his family all torn up.

Seen on the news that Payton Manning was recruited to convince Mendoza to come to the draft.raider_kin wrote: Thu Apr 23, 2026 8:12 am I'm liking the fact that Mendo is not going to the draft. Show's he not into all the fakery and flash.
Plus he is showing good sense in not wanting to hug Goodell (eeewwwwww)
PS why can't Goodell just shake hands?

Not really impressed with the "counseling" thingy...maybe more of a PR move than anything.DanKD wrote: Thu Apr 23, 2026 10:44 am Its going to get worse. Pics from 6 years ago of him and russini surfaced this morning. Don't see his marriage coming back from a several year affair.
He willfully broke his vows for several years and is now showing remorse only because he got caught.

He's just trying to save his coaching ass. His wife will probably play along because his money is her money too.raidersince63 wrote: Thu Apr 23, 2026 11:03 am Not really impressed with the "counseling" thingy...maybe more of a PR move than anything.

They will do the remorse thing for a while and he will come back a new man.
The little head causes so much trouble....
