Reports: Jordy Nelson finalizing deal with Raiders, Michael Crabtree cut likely to follow

Since the moment the Packers released wide receiver Jordy Nelson, the Raiders have put on the full court press to get him. He immediately set off for Oakland and has been there ever since.

Derek Carr met him at the airport and the two headed for Raiders HQ where the Raiders were prepared to keep him from continuing on to his other scheduled visits. He went to dinner with Raiders brass that night, which likely including Edgar Bennett, his former offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach for years in Green Bay.
