Oakland Raiders: Recent ranking of WR group is absurdly low

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden made some waves when he took control of the team as he started to build and shape it in his image – an effort that many people are already panning.

One of the areas that have undergone the most extreme makeover is the wide receiving group. Out is Michael Crabtree, and in is Jordy Nelson, Ryan Switzer, Martavis Bryant, and Marcell Ateman.

They’re also returning Amari Cooper, Seth Roberts and Johnny Holton. While Gruden has already stated that Cooper is going to be the focal point of the passing game this year, we have no idea how he’s going to factor Robers and/or Holton into the offensive game plan – or whether they’ll actually even crack the final 53-man roster.
