But how would Spytek himself assess what the Raiders accomplished in free agency?
"We had a great plan that we put together with the personnel staff," he said, before crediting by name assistant GM Brian Stark, vice president of player personnel Brandon Hunt, assistant director of pro scouting Ben Chester, pro scout Jordan Brown and pro scout Jordon Hein.
"They wrote [scouting reports on] everybody in the league this year, and we were super thorough. We had many great conversations throughout the season about how we wanted to really attack this going forward."
"We wanted to get younger, we wanted to target the right kind of people and so I'm just proud of the work that they put in," Spytek said. "It was a great, collaborative teamwork while we were waiting to fill out the coaching staff.
"And then, we waited until after the Super Bowl, obviously, to have Klint [Kubiak]. And then that was kind of accelerated just with the coaching staff and try to put it all together. But I thought we had a really, really great process with our scouts and the coaches together, and we were able to really feel like we did a good job in free agency of making the Raiders better."
But as Spytek mentioned, the Raiders might still make a signing, or three, before the draft.
After all, Aidan O'Connell is the only QB currently under contract. And yes, the Raiders still hold that No. 1 draft pick and have been linked from here to Las Vegas to Oakland to Los Angeles to Oakland again to Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza.
Still, a veteran signal-caller is needed, yes? And a popular name making its rounds here at the meetings belongs to Kirk Cousins.
