The Las Vegas Raiders still have issues in terms of the roster, and these three players could be traded during the 2021 trade deadline.

To say the Las Vegas Raiders are possibly in the middle of a tailspin would be putting the case lightly.

After a season that started with such promise, in which the Silver and Black started 3-0, the Raiders are not only now in the middle of a two-game losing streak but are now without their head coach after the recent resignation of Jon Gruden. With such turmoil within the franchise, it seems the curtain has been drawn on any hype this team had going to turn around a franchise that hasn’t been to the playoffs since 2016.

The season is still young, and who’s to say that Interim head coach Rich Bisaccia cant flip the switch and get this team back into fighting shape, but the way the odds are stacked against the franchise, this seems unlikely. Whenever teams are facing decline or in a state of realization they are not competing for a playoff spot, it is only customary to sell off assets when you do not intend on bringing them back for the next season.

I will take a look at three Raiders that could potentially be traded at the NFL trade deadline.
