The Las Vegas Raiders are getting great play from Henry Ruggs III, the first wide receiver taken in the 2020 NFL Draft. Ruggs has become the WR1 that this team was looking for, easing the void left by Nelson Agholor this offseason.

A few weeks ago, Dontay Demas Jr looked on track to seriously improve his draft stock with over 500 yards in five games for Maryland. However, a terrible knee injury against Iowa ended his season. Sadly that will drop his stock, but the Raiders could fall on a gem outside the top 100.

Demas Jr has a big frame at 6’3 and 215 pounds with the ability to win down the field and underneath. He is another field stretcher could take this offense to another level, and with Ruggs and Bryan Edwards both improving, as well as Hunter Renfrow’s overall game, this would be an outstanding group at wide receiver.
