I wrote an article before the 2026 NFL Draft, saying the Las Vegas Raiders could end up delaying their need for a wide receiver until the sixth or seventh round.
That was largely because of Jalen Nailor. They did just that, drafting Malik Benson in the sixth round. And now, general manager John Spytek says he likes the WR room just the way it is.
He's saying that just when everyone is suggesting the Raiders go get a guy like Stefon Diggs or Juaun Jennings. Will the Raiders add another WR for Fernando Mendoza? Listen to GM John Spytek address the eye rolls: 😂 🤣 pic.

There was always the belief that Vegas wanted to see what Bech and Thornton could do in a real offensive system before giving up on them.
