Michael Crabtree - WR - RaidersThe Las Vegas Review-Journal reports the Raiders are expected to release Michael Crabtree if they sign free agent Jordy Nelson.
Even as other outlets covering the team have reported Crabtree is safe, the Review-Journal has insisted he isn't, and Tuesday's visit with Nelson all but confirms it. Nelson has history with Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie, a former Packers exec. Nelson would take Crabtree's old possession/red-zone role across from Amari Cooper. Cooper is expected to be the Raiders' go-to wideout in '18.
