Raiders free agent pitch adds $100 million 5-time Pro Bowler to wide receivers room image

The Las Vegas Raiders added two players to their wide receivers room in the 2025 NFL draft in Dont'e Thornton and Jack Bech.

However, the team is still lacking another proven veteran option outside of Jakobi Meyers, which is troubling considering there's no telling what Bech and Thornton could offer in Year 1.

Thankfully, the Raiders still have a ton of cap space to add a veteran wideout in free agency, with the team sitting with $36.7 million in available funds. And, there are still some solid options out there for the team to consider.

One of them is a familiar face in wide receiver Amari Cooper, who was recently pitched as a possible option for Las Vegas by USA TODAY's Jacob Camenker.

"The Raiders are another one of Cooper's former teams that could have an interest in the soon-to-be 31-year-old. Las Vegas has Jakobi Meyers as a strong slot threat and spent a second-round selection on Jack Bech but it could use a veteran to provide depth in a green receiver room," Camenker wrote.
