Raiders Insider Podcast: Garoppolo, Hoyer, O'Connell

Las Vegas Raiders Insider Podcast: Jimmy Garoppolo, Brian Hoyer, Aidan O'Connell, Daniel Carlson, A.J. Cole, and Jacob Bobenmoyer go under our microscope.

HENDERSON, Nev.--On the latest Las Vegas Raiders Insider Podcast episode, we look at two of the most important position groups on the 2023 Silver and Black roster.

You can watch the entire podcast below:

In this podcast, we cover multiple topics, including:

· We have discussed the injury history of Las Vegas Raiders starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. So what are legitimate and genuine expectations?

· The fact that Josh McDaniels and Dave Ziegler have moved him to the forefront of the Raiders' plans means the expectations should be nothing less than anyone else.

· Garoppolo must be healthy and play in all 17 regular season games. That is a fair expectation.

· Because of his history, it is also fair to say that the expectations of Jimmy Garoppolo being healthy for all 17 regular season games are doubtful.

· If Jimmy G plays all 17, will Dave Ziegler and Josh McDaniels get the praise they deserve?

· If Jimmy G doesn’t play in all 17 games, will Dave Ziegler and Josh McDaniels get the blame they deserve?

· Brian Hoyer comes to the Raiders and is the perfect backup currently for the team. Why?

· If Jimmy Garoppolo isn’t healthy at any point in the season, does that mean Brian Hoyer automatically goes in?

· Does Aidan O’Connell, the rookie quarterback from the Purdue Boilermakers, have a scenario in which he could leapfrog Hoyer and play should Jimmy Garoppolo get injured?

· Are expectations on O’Connell fair having not put on a pad yet?

· If O’Connell had come out early from the Boilermakers, he would have been a first-round selection. Could he be the steal of the NFL Draft for the Silver and Black?

· How good is Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson?

· What does Carlson give Josh McDaniels that many coaches don’t have?

· Is A.J. Cole the best punter in the National Football League?

· Are A.J. Cole and Daniel Carlson the best kicker/punter combo in the NFL?

· The Las Vegas Raiders made a very controversial decision to let Trent Sieg go and bring in Jacob Bobenmoyer.

· It isn’t fair to Bobenmoyer for people to hold that against him.

· Why did the Raiders want to move on from Sieg, and how has the team taken to Bobenmoyer?
