Fox Sports proposes Las Vegas make a blockbuster trade
There has been some speculation around the NFL that the current contract issues between the Washington Commanders and standout wide receiver Terry McLaurin could get to the point where its get ugly and goes beyond the point of no return.
There has been some thoughts he cold be traded. With that in mind, earlier this week, Fox Sports floated the Las Vegas Raiders as a perfect landing spot for McLaurin if the Commanders to, indeed, get to the point of trading him.
Surely, the Raiders would be interested if McLaurin gets shopped by Washington. He’d be the best wide receiver and he would be another top-shelf weapon along with second-year star tight end Brock Bowers and rookie running back Ashton Jeanty to work with quarterback Geno Smith.
The Raiders have the salary-cap flexibility where they can acquire McLaurin and give him a brand new deal and still have room to to extend the contract of current No. 1 wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (he’s entering the final year of his contract) and keep him as the No. 2 receiver to McLaurin if they choose.
On the flip side, McLaurin would probably cost the Raiders, at least, their 2026 first-round pick in a trade and it could push back the development of rookie receivers Jack Bech and Dont’a Thornton, who the team are both high on.
How do you feel about Fox’s proposal that the Raiders make a run at McLaurin.
