Could the Raiders draft an Alabama WR for the second-straight year?

Despite losing Nelson Agholor in free agency, the Raiders have added to their wide receiver corps this offseason. The team signed John Brown and Willie Snead, two veteran receivers who have experience playing on good teams and at multiple different positions.

However, both players signed just one-year deals and are in the latter stages of their careers. They are stop-gap players who added to the depth of the roster. So is there a chance the Raiders could add another long-term starter in the 2021 NFL Draft?

In a recent mock draft by Josh Edwards of CBS Sports, he had the Raiders going back to the receiver position in the first round.
