ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Remember when Oakland Raiders owner Mark Davis and general manager Reggie McKenzie referred to the first two years of McKenzie’s tenure as the “deconstruction” of the team?
That was to be followed by two years of a “reconstruction.”
So now, in Year 5, what do we have exactly in Oakland?
Yes, the East Bay became a destination for highly sought-after free agents when Kelechi Osemele, Bruce Irvin, Sean Smith and Reggie Nelson chose the Raiders this offseason. But you are also seeing a sort of youth movement in the Silver and Black.
