Let's look at some potential veteran free-agent fits for the Las Vegas Raiders now that the draft is over:

Jauan Jennings:

The wide receiver has played for new Las Vegas head coach Klint Kubiak in the past. The Raiders have a crowded wide-receiver room, yet it could still use some veteran presence. If the price is right, Jennings could make some sense. But if there is interest, the Raiders may want to move fast. Jennings is visiting the Minnesota Vikings today.

D.J. Reader:

The Raiders could use a defensive tackle and Reader is the best option available. He could help.

Deebo Samuel:

Like Jennings, Samuel is a wide receiver with history with Kubiak. He is slowing down, but if Kubiak prefers him to Jennings, a Samuel signing could be possible in Las Vegas

Rasul Douglas:

Douglas has been in the Raiders' program before and if the want to add a veteran to their young rotation, they could do a lot worse than him.

Will Hernandez:

The Raiders could use another veteran offensive lineman to compete for a roster spot. Hernandez has started 98 games in eight NFL seasons.

Do any of these players make sense to you?
