Kraft: NFL probably 'on board' with Raiders to Vegas

[Hammer of Thor]

It might be an issue of cash flow timing, but I don't fully understand how Las Vegas putting up 750 million is a huge help to the raiders since they have to pay 650 million of that back to the 32 in a relocation fee. Is this move really over 100 million?

With the additional luxury boxes and the like, presumably the Raiders would be taking home more in annual revenue from the stadium compared to what they're getting with the Oakland Colosseum now (and what they would get via other alternatives).

We need a thread for potential team names for a Vegas team.

I'll start:

"The Over/Unders"

The Vegas Vigorish

Typically the relocation fee is paid over 10 years and seems the Chargers were given 30 years ( NFL owners approve debt waiver to help Chargers pay L.A. relocation fee ). PSL and luxury box income is pretty much immediate.
