Las Vegas Raiders: 5 players to target on the waiver wire
By Alex Perl
The Las Vegas Raiders still have work to do in terms of their 2021 roster, and here are five waived players they should target to bring in.
The 2021 NFL offseason cuts had some interesting moves this season, as there were plenty of surprises that occurred when the 53-man rosters were announced yesterday. With former MVP Cam Newton highlighting the group, some big-name players were shown the door, and the Las Vegas Raiders made some surprise cuts as well.
The Raiders caught many by surprise by releasing safety Karl Joseph among a slew of other surprises including John Brown, who was brought in to be a veteran in the wide receiver room. Now, the Raiders have decisions to make in terms of what the roster will look like for Week 1, and they have a large crop of recently unemployed players to do so with.
Some notable names could have some intrigue on the waiver wire, and we will take a look at some of the best available.

Travis Fulgham, Wide Receiver
This move took many by surprise as the 25-year-old wide receiver was the leading receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles a season ago. For a Raiders team that only is carrying five receivers on the roster, it would make sense if they at least take a look at Fulgham.
After being claimed off of waivers by the Eagles last season, the solid receiver should receive some attention early and not be on the market for long.
