New Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carroll expressed excitement about the team's upcoming training camp, which starts Wednesday.

First, the franchise traded for quarterback Geno Smith to reunite him with former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, now at the helm in Las Vegas. This week there's another reunion but this time in the secondary. The Raiders have signed safety Jamal Adams, the team announced Tuesday, July 22.

The Las Vegas Raiders made the trade because they had to. They had to get better at quarterback, and Geno Smith was available, and so the Raiders made the deal to acquire him from the Seahawks. But now the question is really this: Is Geno good enough?

The Las Vegas Raiders placed defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, who experienced a significant setback earlier this year in his recovery from a broken foot, on the physically unable to perform list Friday.

With the first-year pros reporting to Las Vegas this week, who should have the biggest chip on their shoulder?
