Matt Holder is a life-long Raiders fan who has been writing about the team since 2017. He has been at Silver and Black Pride since 2021. He graduated from the Scouting Academy and worked in recruiting at the college level.
Heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, the Las Vegas Raiders’ biggest need on defense is at linebacker. Last season’s starters Robert Spillane and Divine Deablo left in free agency, meaning the Raiders will have two new first-stringers on the second level of the defense this fall.
While Elandon Roberts could fill one of those voids, the soon-to-be 31-year-old is only on a one-year contract.
