So which is it, Jon Gruden?
Are the Raiders trying to build up for their Las Vegas future or has this team re-entered win-now mode as it heads into its final (or penultimate) season in Oakland?
I only ask because over the course of six months, this team, under Gruden's leadership, has made three blockbuster trades – and the ones made in 2018 indicate something dramatically different than the one made Saturday night.
In a vacuum, the Raiders' acquisition of Antonio Brown was an outstanding piece of business for Gruden and his new general manager, Mike Mayock.
