Taron Johnson finally showed up to the Raiders' OTAs earlier this week.

In his glorious return to Just Blog Baby, @MoeMoton breaks down what Johnson's arrival means and how it could turn the safety competition on its head in a new-look defensive system.

Well said and I believe we'll be a lot better than media expectations. Just Win Baby!!!

The Raiders are here to WIN, not wait! #RaiderNation

[Dominic Lavoie @dominicjlavoie]

#Raiders Alumni Tim Brown tells me he cannot remember a better offseason for the Silver and Black in terms of getting players.

He continues about Fernando Mendoza:

"Al Davis used to say 'You win games by blocking and tackling.' Right? Last time I checked, the quarterback is not going to block and tackle. So this cannot all be on him. I think everybody has to know that. The media for sure has to know that this is not about Fernando. This is about guys around him doing what they're supposed to do, allowing him to be able to do what he can do."

Top 5 #Raiders needs in order

1. FS-Ball hawk needed

2. X WR- FM loves those back shoulder throws.

3. NT/DT-position we need now and for the future.

4. CB-need another starting quality boundary CB N future slot.

5. RT-compete w/ Glaze. Depth at OT needed

[Y K B pins 🏴‍☠️ @YouKnowBall_pin]

Yea I need a Raiders vs Ravens wild card game this upcoming season 😂🏴‍☠️

[Diamond Dave @RaidersD]

You forgot to say "pending a physical" sheesh....

[Wesley Steinberg @WesSteinberg]

BREAKING: #Eagles and #Raiders are close on a trade that would see WR AJ Brown and DE Maxx Crosby swap teams alongside draft pick compensation.

[JOE MORLEY @TheJoeMorley_]

Everybody laughed when the Raiders said a new era was coming.

Now look at the roster.

Youth.
Speed.
Attitude.

The league better get ready for what’s coming out of Allegiant.

The greatness of the Raiders isn’t history…

It’s the future.

Run that sh*t. 🏴‍☠️

[Diamond Dave @RaidersD]

Hell Yeah

Raiders make it official with LB Nakobe Dean #Raiders

[Diamond Dave @RaidersD]

I would absolutely be embarrassed to be an employee for the #Ravens right now. Cowards, back stabbers. Look what you did to Maxx and his family. To Maxx the person and his brand. Unprofessional as hell #RaiderNation

[Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate]

The issue teams around the NFL have with the #Ravens backing out is that everyone knew Maxx Crosby had a meniscus injury and underwent surgery. During the entire trade process, that was known and documented.

More information will come out, but there is disbelief and shockwaves across the NFL tonight.

[Vic Tafur @VicTafur]

Crosby's injuries were well documented ...

[Diamond Dave @RaidersD]

Feels good. Im so stoked for my lifelong team. Im ready for the Raiders to be on Top again...I believe right now we are entering a New era of Raiders Football. We are Blessed #RaiderNation

[Kirk Morrison @kirkmorrison]

I know it’s just free agency and early offseason but be honest:

When was the last time you have seen this many people talking good about the Raiders??

December 2025 heard the Raiders get called every bad word in the book. Today some of those same folks have done a 180.

[Diamond Dave @RaidersD]

What a Day. I feel so fired up for the Team and All my Raider Brothers and Sisters. Raiders fan for 45 plus years, which means I've been down for a bit. This feels different, I mean I really believe again. Feels good A

Man Vinnie ALL are starters as well. Really important in my book

[Vincent Bonsignore @VinnyBonsignore]

Everyone the @Raiders signed today are in that 25-28 age range, which fits the timeline.

And they have 11 draft picks coming.

In impact, they and the @RamsNFL have hit home runs so far.

[Moe Moton @MoeMoton]

NEW: Raiders could be in a win-win situation if John Spytek holds firm on Maxx Crosby’s reported trade value

Also, my thoughts on why this is a crucial situation that could allow Spytek to prove himself.

[Diamond Dave @RaidersD]

It feels like 2 lifetimes have past since that Glorious win. Raiders belong in the tournament and I really hope 🙏 this draft and HC hire sparks a run.
