Note: Every year I do this study, I seem to get the same basic comment, which I'll address ahead of time.

"The difference between the Bengals and Raiders is only 2.18 years. So what?"

While 2.18 years may not be a monumental difference between two individual players, keep in mind that these are the average ages of 53 players per team.

2.18 years on average * 53 players = A difference of about 116 total years between the Bengals and Raiders.

Supports the idea that Rivera is partial to his veterans.

Not really. Hurney ultimately decides on the roster not Rivera. Average age of starters stat may support that but not this.

I love stats, but this one doesn't excite me too much.  The age is mostly on our defense. Pretty sure we were among the 10 youngest offenses last year.

The Panthers average age has remained fairly consistent past few years - good years and bad. A ton of youth usually means rebuilding and often is correlated with a worse record.

Rivera isn't just being sentimental by wanting some older vets in the team. Their leadership can make a difference.

Thankfully we've got a promising bunch of new young guys...

Jackson, Moore, Carter, Haynes, Thomas, Moton, Armah, Obada, Elder, Andre Smith, ... Not to mention CMC and Samuel.

We've added youth and speed all over the field. I'm not worrying.

Yeah, we're currently in a much better position than our Super Bowl year.

    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
    • Supposedly he plans on staying in college for all 4 years.
