The naked eye could see the Las Vegas Raiders lack of speed at wide receiver. You didn’t need to be a football junkie to notice.
General manager John Spytek and his player personnel department saw the same. And this offseason, the Raiders new chief personnel man went about remedying that issue.
Along with head coach Pete Carroll, Spytek and the Silver & Black went back to the team’s roots of “scare you to death” speed and bolstered the roster with fleet-footed players and prospects that legendary owner Al Davis would’ve enjoyed.
Las Vegas added explosive elements to the wide receiver room and that should translate into more electricity in the Raiders’ return game.
