Raiders to 'strengthen' wide receiver group after collapse this season

ALAMEDA – Wide receiver might’ve been the Raiders’ greatest team strength entering the 2019 campaign.

They had an elite No. 1 in Antonio Brown, a dynamic and steady producer set to be the offensive centerpiece. They had Tyrell Williams as a big-bodied No. 2 who was a faster-than-you-think deep threat. Ryan Grant was established as a quality No. 3, with Hunter Renfrow as a rookie slot receiver looking to make an instant impact. J.J. Nelson had sprinter’s speed and was pushing for a bigger role in training camp

Quarterback Derek Carr was excited to work with that deep and talented group.
