The Raiders DST should be considered a sleeper this season with the additions of free agents Bruce Irvin and Sean Smith and rookies Karl Joseph, Jihad Ward and Shilique Calhoun. Irvin's addition is particularly encouraging because he will start opposite Khalil Mack, and the duo should form a lethal pass-rushing combination. Last year, the Raiders DST was No. 20 in Fantasy points with 14 interceptions, 38 sacks, 11 fumble recoveries, one touchdown and held their opponents to 399 points. We're expecting an improvement in nearly every area, and the Raiders DST has the chance to be a Top 12 option this season. They are worth drafting with a late-round pick in the majority of leagues.
