Silver Minings: PFF suggests more Patriots could be coming to Las Vegas

This isn’t groundbreaking news by any means as several people have suggested that the Las Vegas Raiders might bring in a few former New England Patriots this offseason after the Raiders hired Josh McDaniels and Dave Ziegler as their head coach and general manager.

The “Patriot way” or system has always been an integral part of New England’s success so bringing players in who understand and are familiar with the playbook and mentality wouldn’t be a bad idea for McDaniels and Ziegler, both of whom came from said organization.

But what might make these rumors more concrete is Pro Football Focus’ Doug Kyed, who covered the Patriots from 2011 to 2021, was recently asked about how the Raiders might attack this offseason and had this to say:

The Raiders hired head coach Josh McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler from the New England Patriots and also brought over offensive coordinator Mick Lombardi, quarterback coach Bo Hardegree and offensive line coach Carmen Bricillo from New England.
