As we approach the 2018 NFL season, the Oakland Raiders roster has come together in Jon Gruden's first season back on the sidelines. While there are still plenty of training camp competitions to look forward to, there are also some big cuts that will likely be made as well.

For a few players, their contracts, or simply their talent level may be enough to keep them on the roster in 2018. But beyond this season, the eight players we're about to look at should feel as though their chances of sticking with the Silver and Black beyond that are pretty slim. The group will also include potential free agents who the Raiders are unlikely to re-sign also.

Obviously, we've seen Gruden make some pretty bold decisions when it comes to the roster, so a lot can change in the next few months. Plus, when training camp rolls around, things really go to the next level and players have to prove their worth in order to stick around. The man dubbed as "Chucky" has shown that he has no issue cutting a big name or popular player if they don't buy into his system or he doesn't think they are a fit for how he runs the show.

So, let's dive in and check out a group of players who are almost certainly looking at their final season with the Raiders, and some of these options could even wind up missing out on the 53-man roster this year if they don't really impress.

What better place to start than with a wide receiver who's already been rumored to be a trade candidate?
