Your 2018 fantasy football rankings wouldn’t be complete without the inclusion of these Oakland Raiders players, many of whom have been popular picks so far this year.

After a disappointing 2017 campaign, the Oakland Raiders head into the upcoming season with a new head coach, rebuilt roster and so many unanswered questions. One of those questions is who will be fantasy relevant and worth having in your fantasy football rankings in 2018?

Today, I’m going to attempt to answer that question. While there are many Raiders worth considering when you sit down to complete your draft, it’ll help to have a more refined idea of what to expect from each of these notable names. As it so happens, that’s the information I’m here to provide as you prepare for your fantasy season.

Now keep in mind how unpredictable fantasy football can be. Unexpected stars emerge seemingly every game, and established stars often fail to meet expectations. That’s part of what makes the game so exhilarating and infuriating at the same time. If it were so easy to determine who would light it up every year, though, there would be no need to play.

I think you get the point I’m trying to make. So instead of continuing to chit chat, let’s focus on why we’re really here: to figure out which Raiders you should target in your fantasy draft.

With that in mind, here are the Raiders’ fantasy football players I believe offer the most intrigue in 2018. Anything can happen in the coming months, but it’s my belief that these rankings accurately order Oakland’s offensive forces by their eventual point output relative to their position.
