Part 7/8:
There are already rumors surrounding potential candidates. One name frequently mentioned is Mike Vrabel, who has a close relationship with Tom Brady and could be a logical fit for the Raiders. However, the need for a new head coach also comes with challenges. Many potential candidates may hesitate to take the job without significant changes to the existing GM structure, as some coaches prefer to handpick their own GMs to facilitate a seamless organizational relationship.
Another candidate worth noting is Ben Johnson, whose offensive prowess could appeal to an ownership group interested in instability moving forward. Yet, without a clear plan and the prospect of finding a strong quarterback, attracting top-tier coaching talent remains a challenge for the Raiders.
