The Oakland Raiders have gotten off to a 2-2 start to the 2019 NFL season, but there is still a lot of work to do in terms of the roster. Some of the key players they brought in this offseason are no longer with the team, like wide receiver Antonio Brown, and linebacker Vontaze Burfict, who was recently suspended for the entire season.
While the team waits out the Burfict suspension, as an appeal will be heard Tuesday, they are extremely thin at the linebacker position. They have brought in guys like Justin Phillips and Dakota Allen to fill the role, but instead of adding players that way, they may decide it is in their best interest to swing a trade in order to bolster the roster this season.
