They haven't been over .500 since Tampa stomped them 12 years ago for the title. Anything can happen, admittedly, but I don't see it happening this year for them with the schedule the AFC West pulled.

I can agree with this. Pittsburgh LBs never do shit when they leave Pitt so I don't expect Woodley to do anything of note. Mack is a rookie. Antonio Smith is pretty good but he's had Watt to draw attention for the past few seasons; we'll see how he does on his own.
I mean, they added some experience; but that defense was horrible last year. They let Foles and Jamaal have career, all-time games. I don't think age will have the effect Raiders fans are hoping for..
But... You never know. They had a ton of cap space and they did
something and that's a start toward getting out of the cellar.
