Raiders camp kicks off with rookies reporting Thursday, giving Klint Kubiak a critical five-day head start to evaluate new talent before veterans arrive. Three rookies stand out: top pick Fernando Mendoza, potential Week One contributor Treydan Stukes, and explosive fourth-round RB Mike Washington Jr., who ran the fastest 40-yard dash among all RBs at the combine. With Ashton Jeanty’s workload in mind, Washington could be the key to a strong two-back rotation. The real test? Facing the Raiders’ elite defense in pads — where drills turn into real competition. Don’t sleep on Washington — he could be a breakout October force.
