Emmanuel Sanders

Still looking for a true WR1, the Las Vegas Raiders could be in play for Emmanuel Sanders, who helped lead the San Francisco 49ers to a Super Bowl last season. The sure-handed Sanders would be a perfect fit in this offense, as he is a steady player who can get the job done downfield, as well as over the middle.

Sanders, 33 was traded to the 49ers in October and helped spark the offense on their way to a Super Bowl appearance. In 10 games, Sanders caught 36 passes for 502 yards and three touchdowns.  His better years are behind him but teams who are looking to round out their receiving corps with a savvy vet should consider Sanders.

With Tyrell Williams and Hunter Renfrow at the top of the depth chart at wideout, the Raiders have to do something to add more talent, and we all know Jon Gruden loves his veteran wide receivers. Look what he did with Tim Brown and Jerry Rice the last time around.
