28. The Oakland Raiders have a solid group of receivers but more depth would be a good thing. Last year, Amari Cooper played with an injured foot as a decoy because no one else scared defenses. Crabtree is good but he doesn’t have the speed to scare opposing defenses.
<p>It is Cooper’s big-play speed and ability that opens things up for Crabtree and Seth Roberts. So when Cooper was gimpy last year, he didn’t scare teams so there wasn’t much open for the other two. But another deep threat would keep things open if there’s an injury to Cooper.</p>
<p>As a matter of fact another deep threat could open up some things for Cooper underneath. Chesson is that guy as he is No. 3 on ESPN’s Top-25 fastest college football players that came out this spring. He’s also 6’3″ with hops, making him more of a deep threat and red-zone threat.</p>
<p>The Andre Holmes is the tallest receiver with the Raiders right now at 6’4″ but doesn’t do much. I actually believe Chesson is a 1st-round talent but he doesn’t have the production because of his offense. This pick would deepen the Raiders’ receiver corps and give it another deep threat they could use.</p>. WR. Michigan. Jehu Chesson. 5. player
