The Oakland Raiders have always been the NFL's villain, but they aren't looking to change that after bringing the former Bengals linebacker to town.

Tuesday afternoon, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr hosted a question and answer segment on his YouTube channel to promote the Altar Conference, which will be taking place in Fresno this weekend. While he primarily wanted to invite more people to the event, Carr also wanted to answer as many questions as possible from both Raider Nation and the media members.

During this back-and-forth, the Raiders signal-caller was asked about the myriad additions to the roster, including Antonio Brown, Tyrell Williams, Trent Brown, and Brandon Marshall. Carr was obviously excited about all of these players coming to town, but he made a point to bring up one of the more divisive signings from free agency: Vontaze Burfict.

"I'll say this," Carr said on Tuesday. "On offense and defense, all we've done is add good players and good people, from the outside looking in. Nobody honestly really knows what's going on, if I'm keeping it real. When you see the people we are signing and the people we are bringing in, we are building a team to win now. We are ready to go. We are so hungry, we are so on fire to win. Vontaze (Burfict), he's amazing. I've known him for a while. I've talked to him multiple times, not just when he signed, but in the last couple days, I've been talking to him. He's an amazing man. He's ready to hit somebody, I know that. He's ready to hit somebody, and he's ready to lead our defense. I think that him being with (Paul) Guenther, which Guenther's amazing, he's a genius. Him being around Guenther before, they are going to be awesome."

Of course, there could be some concerns about Burfict on the Raiders due to his issues with suspensions and fines. He has, after all, been forced to pay more than $400,000 to the league offices for illegal hits and other questionable activities. The coaching staff will obviously want to clean up this portion of his game, but they won't change his tough mindset.

Many outside voices have commented that Burfict's personality fits with the Raiders persona, mostly due to playing the villain role, and Carr completely agrees. As he explained, joining the Raiders isn't a decision that is made in haste. Every player that comes to the Bay Area has to know the history of the franchise and understand that donning the Silver and Black comes with a certain stigma.

"I do know this: that whenever you decide to come to play for the Raiders, you have to understand that it's not for everybody. You have to understand that no one else in the NFL likes the Raiders. You have to understand that no fan base likes you. You have to understand, no matter where we go, we're the villain."

Carr may be one of the most likable quarterbacks in the league with his laid back personality and overall positive outlook on life, but that doesn't mean that he should be playing for a different franchise. He has expressed many times over the past few years that he absolutely loves Oakland and the Raiders, and he doesn't want to play anywhere else. He may not have the nasty personality, but Carr relishes being the villain to every other fan base.
