Projected Raiders Starters After Reported Antonio Brown Trade

The chatter connecting the Oakland Raiders and Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Antonio Brown came to fruition on Sunday, as the Silver and Black are reportedly obtaining the seven-time Pro Bowler.

Brown appeared to announce the news himself:

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that the Raiders are dealing a third-rounder and fifth-rounder from the 2019 draft for Brown, who will also receive a "reworked" deal to make him the league's highest-paid wideout.

The Raiders needed a No. 1 wideout after trading Amari Cooper to the Dallas Cowboys in October, and Brown should fill that role easily.
