Could the Las Vegas Raiders trade for N’Keal Harry?

How does Harry fit?

One question mark the Raiders offense currently has is at the second outside receiver spot. Currently slated to be a third-year pro, Bryan Edwards has had struggles of his own since being selected in the third round two years ago. After a season in 2021 where he had just 571 yards and three touchdowns, he should not be guaranteed a starting spot.

This is where Harry fits in. While both he and Edwards are loaded with potential, neither has fully reached it. Perhaps the competition would bring the best out of both players. Of course, new head coach Josh McDaniels is familiar with Harry as he was his offensive coordinator for his entire career. New general manager Dave Ziegler also had a hand in drafting the Arizona State product.

Due to the lack of production throughout his career, Harry is unlikely to be an expensive addition. In fact, he could likely be had for the price of a late day three pick.

For a player like Harry who has potential, is familiar with the offensive scheme, and could fill a need, that may be a price that the Raiders are willing to consider.
