Starters

Antonio Brown may be the best receiver in football, so it is no question that he will be the WR1 for this team. despite his off the field issues, Brown is a monster on the field, and could be the person that turns the offense around. He and Carr have created chemistry this off season despite what the media says, and he could be the player that helps turn Carr’s career around.

The Raiders added Tyrell Williams this off season as the clear WR2. Williams brings a skill set that no other receiver on the team possesses, as he is tall and can go get the deep ball. Williams was great for the Chargers, especially in the time where Keenan Allen was out with injuries. Williams should get a ton of looks when Antonio Brown is being double covered, just like JuJu Smith-Schuster did for the Steelers.

The Raiders selected Hunter Renfrow in the draft this off season, as he was one of the best weapons on Clemson’s National Championship team. Renfrow will lineup in the slot more often than not, using his speed and shiftiness to find the open field and be a security blanket for Derek Carr.
