6-7, 2nd AFC West
In the midst of a lot of hype surrounding the Raiders' appearance on HBO's 'Hark Knocks' this year, they are also gearing up for what will likely be one of their more interesting seasons in the past decade. A busy offseason has left Oakland with a new outlook going into the 2019/20 campaign, and starts to shed some light onto the confusion surrounding some deals in the past -- mainly the unloading of star pass-rusher Khalil Mack. While I don't necessarily have the Raiders as likely Super Bowl contenders or even making it deep into the playoffs, I still think the year will leave the team and fans alike optimistic.

After a big dramatic exit with the Steelers this offseason, Antonio Brown will finally be suiting up in a new uniform come September. It seems like it's a good step for both Brown and the Steelers, as their time together was certainly coming to an end. What Brown brings to this Oakland offense is an incredibly solid WR1 who is going to propel their offense way past where it's been in years past. The Carr/Brown duo is going to be one to look out for this year, and I'm not quite sure the league will know exactly what to expect out of Brown on a new team. In my opinion, Brown pays off in dividends on the field for all the off-the-field chaos he's known to cause. The Raiders will be better off with Brown in black and gray.
On August 6th, Nevin Lawson announced via Twitter that he would be suspended without pay for the first four games of the Raiders season. The reason? Testing positive for the NFL banned substance Ostarine. Lawson claims to have not taken the substance knowingly, but that doesn't really matter as the NFL puts it on the players to be aware of what they are ingesting at all times. Lawson will still be allowed to participate in all Raiders pre-season activities, so when the time comes for him to return to the field he will be ready to do so. Lawson isn't the first player to have been dished a suspension over banned substances this offseason and he likely won't be the last. Suspensions and injuries are usually reported around this time every year, and it's something you hate to see effect your team.
The 28-year-old quarterback has had a couple of good seasons with the Raiders, but the last two have been incredibly subpar. His $125 million contract which, when it was inked, made Carr the highest paid player in the NFL, is coming to an end after next season. But I think all eyes will be on Carr as he finally has an elite target in Antonio Brown. The last two seasons where the Raiders finished 6-10 and 4-12, respectively, make a bad argument for Carr being worth all that money. But as the Raiders continue to improve around him, I feel he has a chance to start proving the Raiders didn't make a mistake in inking that huge deal with him.
