Five fictional players that could help the Las Vegas Raiders

Earl Megget, RB: The Longest Yard

Speed, moves, determination and a calm demeanor are excellent attributes for a great running back, and for a team to be successful, they must have a solid running game. With the Raiders already with sophomore sensation Josh Jacobs toting the rock, adding Megget would be the icing on the cake.

Creating a dual-threat backfield that could go the distance on any play, Megget and Jacobs would be the kind of one-two punch that could dominate defenses. Meggett loves the game, and would be a dream for coach Gruden who values the running game like he hoards tight ends.

Adding Megget is a fantastic way to provide Jacobs a spell while keeping weapons on the field. Imagine a backfield of Jacobs, Megget, Lynn Bowden Jr. and Jalen Richard. That would give quarterback Derek Carr plenty of options to work with out of the backfield.
