Cadillac Williams pouring into Raiders running backs
Carnell “Cadillac” Williams' four games as the interim head coach at Auburn showed him something that he is applying as the running-backs coach for the Las Vegas Raiders. “I think that whole experience of being in that role, it made me realize the impact you can have on men, that you can have on people,” Williams said on Wednesday. A former Auburn standout, Williams went from running-backs coach to interim head coach for the final four games of the Tigers' 2022 season when Bryan Harsin was fired.

This is a bit of a surprise at this point because the Raiders just drafted Michael Mayer last year, but it’s hard to get too mad at adding a talent like Brock damn Bowers. The Raiders' two-tight end personnel sets are going to be a beast and they’ll be in good position to make life easier for whoever is playing quarterback for them this year.

This is probably a good spot for Powers-Johnson, who was announced as a guard instead of a center. Regardless, the Raiders needed bodies on the interior and Powers-Johnson is a credible player to add at guard. Very steady starter.

This adds offensive tackle depth for a team that needed it. Perhaps Glaze is a diamond in the rough starter, but he’s most likely just depth.
