Okay Rockdrake Lover. I am here to clarify that Megaraptor is not a Raptor at all!!!! Same technically is the same for Oviraptor and Gigantoraptor. The raptor you are referring to specifically is Dromaosauridae. Which only would pertain Utahraptor and Deinonychus. While Gigantoraptor and Oviraptor are in the same Clade, it isn’t apart of the smaller clade Dromaosauridae shares with Troodontids and avians. Megaraptor and the Megaraptorians are not even apart of the same clade as either. It’s actually more related to Basil Tyrannosaurs in the Tyrannosauroidea superfamily than with raptors.

So no, I do not think we have enough raptors and we need more. Same goes for the other two.
