BREAKING NEWS: Raiders Nation star player has finally signed the contract of…..

Raiders said they would regret giving star player a $110 million contract.

The biggest move the Las Vegas Raiders made this offseason was signing defensive tackle Christian Wilkins to a four-year, $110 million contract. It was a steep price to pay but Wilkins cemented himself as one of the defensive tackles in the NFL last season and had 9.0 sacks.

The Raiders now have a top defensive lineman to pair with star defensive end Maxx Crosby. However, not everybody is on board with the signing. Brad Gagnon of Bleacher Report predicted that the team would come to regret paying Wilkins.

“The 28-year-old Wilkins isn’t a game-changer,” Gagnon wrote in a June 19 column. “He’s never been an All-Pro of any kind or even a Pro Bowler, he’s never posted an approximate value in the double digits, and he’s never had a campaign with 10 sacks or more than two forced fumbles. And yet he’ll count more than $30 million against the cap in 2025, 2026 and 2027.”

Pro Football Focus previously ranked Wilkins as the 10th-best defensive tackle in the NFL. That may not be high enough to warrant $27.5 million a year but he’s clearly not a scrub. Plus, Wilkins should only be better now that he’s playing on a defensive line that is stacked with good talent like Crosby, Malcolm Koonce and Tyree Wilson.
