Oakland Raiders: Gruden not setting team back, he’s propelling it forward

Oakland Raiders HC Jon Gruden has come swinging in like a wrecking ball – apologies if you’re picturing Gruden dressed like Miley Cyrus riding an actual wrecking ball. There is no doubt though, that under Gruden, the Raiders are getting an Extreme Makeover: Football Team Edition.

Gone, for one reason or another, are a host of players fans have become familiar with over the seasons – some, fans were actually pretty big fans of. And in, are a number of other players – some, that have fans scratching their heads, wondering why they’re here.

It’s easy to look at the additions Gruden’s made, a seemingly odd patchwork collection of castoffs and misfits, and wonder what the bigger plan here is.
