1. Oakland Raiders: Amari Cooper, Michael Crabtree, Seth Roberts, Andre Holmes, Johnny Holton.

I don't know why the writer didn't include TEs and receivers that come out of the backfield. receiving corps go beyond the WRs

TEs Michael Rivera and Clive Walford both do a great job for the Raiders ... along with five different players coming out of the backfield which ALL have excellent receiving skills.

but ... I haven't seen a receiving corp this good since the 1999 Rams

Isaac Bruce, Tory Holt, Az Hakim, Ricky Proehl

TEs Ernie Conwell and Roland Williams were both impressive and

AND... Marshall Faulk who was basically an elite WR that played out of the backfield.... I loved watching Faulk run deep pass plays and his screen plays were 2nd to none.

Because of Faulk, I rate the 99 Rams as being slightly better than the 2016 Raiders

The best $3.2M ever spent!! He has been nails for the Radas. He has been their offensive MVP and a great safety blanket for a young qb. When a young qb has a receiver he can count on to run the correct route, and catch everything thrown to him, its huge. Crabtree has the best hands in the game, and David Carr has credited him for his growth, and lauds him as a great teammate.

Amari Cooper has said as well that Crabs has helped his transition and taught him how to be an NFL wide receiver. Great signing.
