The Las Vegas Raiders still have a glaring need at wide receiver, and general manager John Spytek can fill that hole by signing a San Francisco 49ers free agent.
ESPN's Bill Barnwell believes Las Vegas is a possible landing spot for receiver Jauan Jennings, who is still on the free agent market.
"Vegas can't afford to scrimp on help for likely first overall pick Fernando Mendoza," Barnwell said. "The Raiders added receiver Jalen Nailor in free agency and have young wideouts such as Jack Bech, Dont'e Thornton Jr. and Tre Tucker in the mix."
"But Jennings would step in as a reliable, valuable target for Mendoza in the short term, with the Raiders likely to find their eventual WR1 in the years to come."
Despite signing Jalen Nailor to a three-year deal, Las Vegas' wide receiver room still lacks talent and is incredibly unproven.
Jennings is coming off one of the better years of his career in 2025, tallying a career-high nine touchdowns with 643 receiving yards. The Tennessee product had 975 yards on 77 receptions and six touchdowns in 2024.
The Raiders have $34 million in cap space remaining, per Over the Cap, so they can still make a few signings in free agency.
Spotrac projects Jennings will land a deal worth $22.6 million annually over three seasons, a total value of $67.8 million. That is a hefty price, but with Jennings still on the market, his asking price has likely dropped.
With Fernando Mendoza set to enter the building in the next month, Las Vegas must surround him with as much talent as possible. Jennings isn't an elite receiver, but he has shown that he can be a dynamic playmaker when given opportunities, so the Raiders should look into adding him.
