Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson is among the top names in this year's NFL head coaching cycle —and according to one NFL insider, he's become "the candidate to watch" for one team in particular.

Certainly, many people will say that Ben Johnson should not become the head coach of the Raiders. The reason being — they’re so far away from being a complete roster that it will make it tough for him to win right away. Especially with such a competitive AFC West division. All of that makes sense.
