Oakland Raiders ask Cliff Branch to help evaluate wide receivers

The Oakland Raiders traded away No. 1 wideout Amari Cooper during the trade deadline in 2018, leaving a void at the top of their depth chart the rest of the way. Veteran wide receiver Jordy Nelson did a nice job filling in during the second half of the year, putting together some of his better games in the Silver and Black, but the teams needs reinforcements for next season.

While Nelson is likely back for 2019, there is not much behind him on the depth chart, outside of 2018 seventh rounder Marcell Ateman, and guys like Seth Roberts and Keon Hatcher.
