New head coach Jon Gruden has seen enough film of the Oakland Raiders defense. Since Gruden was hired on a ten-year contract the organization from the top down have made it a priority to rebuild a unit that has underachieved for the past several seasons. Both GM Reggie McKenzie and Jon Gruden have been busy selling their vision of the organization and the direction it’s going.
Raiders defenses of the past had a “bend, don’t break” mantra. The current group could be described as “we are coming for you!”. The addition of savvy veterans with impressive resumes indicates that Oakland is trying to win.
