Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Raiders recently added Green Bay DC Dom Capers to their list of candidates to fill the opening created when the team fired Hue Jackson last week, and expect the team's search to begin to accelerate now that their coaches can interview with other organizations with the Packers are out of the playoffs. New GM Reggie McKenzie is expected to consider Packers assistant head coach Winston Moss for the position, and the Raiders have interest in several members of the Green Bay staff. Along with Capers, OC Joe Philbin in on their list and many league observers believe secondary coach Darren Perry could end up as the next DC in Oakland. The Raiders have searched beyond Green Bay, as Miami Dolphins interim coach Todd Bowles interviewed with them last Friday. But as NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora notes, there's a strong sense around the league that when the Raiders hire a head coach, it will come from the Green Bay pipeline.
