Lions' 'best-secret secret' emphasizes what Raiders fans already knew

The Las Vegas Raiders have had difficulty finding stability in recent years, which makes it difficult to keep talented players.

For many, the decision is easy. The team did not win, and the head coach or general manager who acquired them was no longer in Las Vegas, so it made sense to continue. This does not mean that several players who are not injured, but Raider Nation has become deaf in the last agony.

Fortunately, head coach Pete Carroll and General Manager John Spytek are now responsible. They have already taken a number of brilliant steps in their first low season, but there are questions about the LineBacker group and who will start in Slot Corner.

Lions' 'best-secret secret' emphasizes what Raiders fans already knew

On Monday, Matt Holder von Bleacher Report called the “Best -Heiz” of an NFL team before the NFL season 2025. For the Detroit Lions, this player was a former Raiders Slot Corner Amik Robertson, who is obviously not a stranger to Raider Nation.

He was a choice in the fourth round in the franchise in 2020 and had several epic moments when he was wearing silver and black. Robertson left the last low season because the then general manager Tom Telesco did not make a contract for him, and the book was concluded about his career in Las Vegas.

In view of the awareness that he now receives in Detroit, the fan base harms even more to know that he could still be with the Raiders if the franchise had played his cards correctly. Now Robertson is an emerging star for the Lions, and Las Vegas has no deadly answer in the slot.

The fans knew that it was a mistake to leave Robertson Go, but Raider Nation was forced to endure the decision when they were enthusiastic about the new era. Unfortunately, this decision has already come back to follow the franchise.

Darnay Holmes made a solid contribution to Slot Corner to defend the Raiders last year, but he still has to prove that he is a long -term solution in the position. Mello Dotson is a fascinating, naughty rookie from Kansas, which comes through incredible ball capabilities and high upwards, but it is not proven until he plays an NFL snap.

Those in the league are enthusiastic about Robertson's potential this year, but Raider Nation saw this from a mile. If the team had enjoyed more stability over the years, he might still be a Raider, and the team would not look for an experienced slot corner for Las Vegas.
