Three important positions to watch in Las Vegas Raiders minicamp

Wide Receiver

Last season, Nelson Agholor proved to be quite the steal, coming into Las Vegas on a one-year, prove-it deal, and taking over the top spot of the position group. In all fairness, rookies Henry Ruggs III and Bryan Edwards had a strange first season in the league, dealing with the pandemic, and the expectations are high entering Year 2.

To make up for the loss of the veteran Agholor, the Raiders added John Brown and Willie Snead, two players who have had some success at the NFL level. These are definitely two veterans to keep an eye on over the next few months, as there are some young and talented players in this position group, and they may choose to keep only one of them.

Hunter Renfrow returns for his third season, and we know what the Raiders will get out of him, as he has been one of the more consistent players on the roster since being selected in 2019. Overall, I like the blend of talent they have at the position this upcoming season, and I believe the production will be much better than it was a year ago.
