Which NFL team is enjoying the best 2026 offseason? Raiders, Panthers and Titans significantly improved

PICK: Las Vegas Raiders

The Raiders have checked box after box this offseason, beginning with the hiring of coach Klint Kubiak. They then improved the defense dramatically, adding Kwity Paye, Nakobe Dean and Quay Walker to the front seven, while ultimately retaining Maxx Crosby. Offensively, Las Vegas secured an anchor in center Tyler Linderbaum and brought in some speed on the outside in receiver Jalen Nailor to take attention away from star tight end Brock Bowers and running back Ashton Jeanty. Oh, and the Raiders still own the first overall pick in next month’s draft, which they’ll presumably use to secure their franchise quarterback.
