We also dive into the Raiders re-signing tight end Ian Thomas and what that means for the offense. Plus, reaction to Fernando Mendoza choosing not to attend the NFL Draft and what his visit to the facility—with Tom Brady reportedly in the building—could signal for the franchise’s future. We wrap things up discussing the running back room, draft targets, and whether Vegas should add a veteran presence.
