Las Vegas Raiders: Falcons’ OT Kaleb McGary

The Raiders find themselves firmly in the playoff hunt as they currently lead the AFC West. Derek Carr is playing some of his best football and the defense is holding their own enough to get the job done. They could use another offensive lineman, particularly on the right side.

The Falcons’ former first-round pick Kaleb McGary has been a bit underwhelming so far in his career. With the team in a likely rebuild, getting rid of pieces that don’t necessarily fit in order to stockpile draft capital may be their best move.

McGary can come to Las Vegas and compete with Brandon Parker for the right tackle spot, which the Raiders have yet to properly fill after the disastrous Trent Brown contract and subsequent trade.
