In the early stages of free agency, the Las Vegas Raiders were connected to the likes of JuJu Smith-Schuster and A.J. Green. Yet, in the end. they signed John Brown of the Buffalo Bills.
There is a clear plan for Brown. He will fill the Nelson Agholor role, who was a favorite of quarterback Derek Carr in 2020 and he had 48 catches and eight touchdowns catches. The Raiders would love Brown to duplicate that.
And it’s likely the Raiders are done adding receivers in free agency.
Really, they feel like they have their top five receivers for 2021 already on the roster with Brown, Henry Ruggs and Bryan Edwards.
