ESPN on rankings all 32 teams
We asked NFL analysts Mike Clay, Aaron Schatz and Seth Walder to rank every NFL lineup, then combined their rankings to come up with our final list from the league's best to its worst. Talent, age and production of the players were all factored in. Then we took it a step further: Clay detailed the strongest and weakest units for all 32 squads, Walder picked X factors to watch and Schatz found nonstarters who could make big contributions off the bench this season. And the projected starting lineups below are via Clay's projections. Let's get to it. Here's how each roster stacks up heading into the 2024 season.

ESPN on Raiders biggest strength
“Defensive line. The Raiders already had one of the league's best edge rushers in Maxx Crosby (fourth in the league with 27.0 sacks and first among edge rushers with 178 tackles over the past two seasons) and added one of the league's top defensive tackles in Christian Wilkins (fifth among DTs with 9.0 sacks in 2023) during free agency. Malcolm Koonce has emerged as a solid edge, and the Raiders will expect a leap from 2023 first-round pick Tyree Wilson this season. DT depth behind Wilkins is a concern, but this unit has plenty of potential.”
ESPN on Raiders biggest weakness
“Quarterback. Perhaps the league's most underwhelming QB situation will involve a battle between 2023 fourth-round pick Aidan O'Connell and veteran newcomer Gardner Minshew. Minshew was solid (13th in QBR) in place of injured Anthony Richardson in Indianapolis last season, whereas O'Connell held down the fort (25th) after replacing Jimmy Garoppolo in Las Vegas. The Raiders will need O'Connell to make a big leap and become a gem Day 3 find.”

ESPN on X factor for 2024
“Cornerbacks Jack Jones, Jakorian Bennett and Nate Hobbs. The defensive line is clearly a strength, as Mike mentioned. So the success of this defense will rise or fall with the three corners. Jones, claimed off waivers from New England last year, recorded a slightly better than average 1.2 yards per coverage snap allowed last season, per NFL Next Gen Stats. Hobbs (1.6) and Bennett (1.7) were worse in the metric -- though Bennett's numbers came in a small sample. Vegas will need at least some of this group to step up in 2024.”
Mitchell Renz asked these questions today:
- Where do the Raiders rank amongst all other NFL teams? From 1-32
- Who is a nonstarter to know on the Raiders?
ESPN on Nonstarter to know
“Edge rusher Janarius Robinson. The Raiders want to use Wilson more inside this season, which leaves Crosby and Koonce on the edge without a lot of depth. Crosby rarely leaves a game, but the Raiders will need something out of Robinson (or Elerson Smith) when Koonce gets a breather. Robinson, a 2021 fourth-round pick who had not played in the NFL until 2023, had a sack and five pressures in six games a season ago.”
Non Starters To Know
