Ever since the Las Vegas Raiders solved their immediate quarterback issue by trading for Geno Smith, their draft strategy became much more wide open.
Among the positions the Raiders need the most help at, wide receiver comes to mind. While the passing game will rely on tight end Brock Bowers for the foreseeable future, the team needs options to keep defenses from keying on him too often. Jakobi Meyers certainly helps after recording his first 1,000-yard season in 2024, but he projects more as a quality number two receiver, meaning the Raiders still need another.
