2. SS Johnathan Abram

Johnathan Abram’s rookie season didn’t last very long for the Raiders. He was injured in the team’s first game of the season as he played just 48 snaps in 2019.

With Karl Joseph off to Cleveland in free agency, the Raiders need Abram to be the team’s enforcer in the middle of the field. And unfortunately, they don’t have much time for him to shake off the rust as the Raiders will play an incredibly difficult schedule to start the season littered with future Hall of Fame quarterbacks.

While Abram’s snaps were likely to be monitored in the preseason anyways, it would have been nice to see the former first-round pick get through a four-game preseason slate. Instead, look for him to see more action in the team’s two preseason games to prepare him for the season.
