Raiders Linebackers: Best Group Since 2002? Nakobe Dean & Quay Walker Breakdown

Listen Later

Nakobe Dean and Quay Walker just became the highest-paid linebacker duo in Raiders history — and we're making the case that they're the best Raiders linebacking corps since Bill Romanowski, Eric Barton, and Napoleon Harris on the 2002 Super Bowl team.

In this episode:

  • What the linebacker room looked like a year ago, and why it got completely rebuilt
  • The $76.5M combined they're carrying, and why that's the real signal on how the front office views the position
  • Dean and Walker's college tape, their fit together, and the 2002 comparison — with receipts
  • The honest rebuttal: durability concerns, the Cory Littleton ghost, and the fact these two have zero snaps together as Raiders
  • The verdict and a falsifiable standard we're holding this group to by the Week 9 bye
