Then who are we going to have that can wander around the field aimlessly looking to avoid contact all the time?

GettyJaylon Smith of the Dallas Cowboys.

Don’t look now, but the Las Vegas Raiders are one of the hottest teams in the NFL. It’s no surprise that the offense is one of the best in the league. What is surprising is how well the defense is playing. Through two games, the group has five sacks and forced three turnovers. If the defense can continue to play like a top 20 unit in the NFL, the Raiders will be in the playoffs.

Head coach Jon Gruden and general manager Mike Mayock have shown a willingness to swing big on defense this offseason with the additions of Gerald McCoy, K.J. Wright and Denzel Perryman shortly before the season started. Now that it looks like the Raiders are for real, the team could take another swing.


Alex Kay of Bleacher Report believes the Raiders should call up the Dallas Cowboys and see if they’d have interest in swapping linebacker Jaylon Smith for defensive end Clelin Ferrell:
No. Marinelli is a good DL coach, terrible evaluator, but good coach. If he isn't good enough for him, want no part of him either. Jaylon has his issues, but he does flash ever once in a while,

I question how good he really is, if he is out of their DL rotation.
I posted a couple videos from Fan evaluators . . . It all seems to stem from Clelin getting onto Chucky's Dog House.

I am not even so sure they are willing to part with him or how much value they would want in return.

He is a monster in the rush defense and had been improving in his pass rushing abilities.

He e as never embraced by the fans (because of #4 over all pick) and now Chucky is giving him the Stank Eye.

Its time for Him to move on but uts not because He is not talented .

Also last year He was i juried and the teams record reflected His Lost

I think they won 7 games with him and 1 without Him if I am not mistaken

If that is true, would make some sense.

The one thing that jumped out at me about the videos is that the Content Creators are themselves Raider Fans but they were not fully aware at how good He is. . .not until they took the time to look at the tapes.

Chucky has Las Vegas on the come up but sometimes certain players, for whatever reason, just Don't fit the mold of what Chucky wants this team to be . . . It happens all the time in the NFL.

Cowboys have benefited in the pass by acquiring these kind of lineman . . . Haley & Casillas were big time acquisitions during the glory years

Whatever The Cowboys have on this team and what we as Fans hope they will become . . .Clelin already is that player.

One of the Content Creators credited Clelin with the Raiders victory over KC . . . because of his ability to contain the Run Game. He is on par with Lawrence as a Run defender. . . Clelin and Lawrence with outside containment would take this Defense to top 10 level because no one would Run on us. . . Because with outside containment on lock Parsons would be free to fly through any open lanes as the RBs are funneled back into the middle

I am 110% on board with acquiring him If he were available . . . I would hope a 4th Rd pick would be enough but I would go as high as a 3rd Rd pick to ensure I acquired him

He looks good to me. . . Apparently he got in Chucky's Dog House and the Fan base never accepted Him because He was drafted so high.

Maybe time to move on.

It would hurt our LB depth but Clelin would be an asset on our D Line

Chucky has Jerry's Number . . . I would welcome this.

Besides Jaylon would look good in the Silver & Black . .

@Cowboyny If you have the time check these videos out

Is he? How did his defensive line perform last year compared to the coach he replaced?
