Meanwhile, in Las Vegas, the Raiders lack a No. 1 target and depth, as the jury is still out on Dont&#8217;e Thornton and Jack Bech and veteran Tre Tucker is best suited as a No. 3.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/story\/_\/id\/48045815\/2026-nfl-combine-latest-buzz-news-rumors-free-agency-draft-qbs-trades-offseason#rbs\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:ESPN&#039;s Jeremy Fowler;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">ESPN&#8217;s Jeremy Fowler<\/a>, the belief around the league is that the Raiders will have interest in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/seattle-seahawks\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Seattle Seahawks;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Seattle Seahawks<\/a> wide receiver Rashid Shaheed.<\/p>\n<p>Like the Raiders, the Bills are also expected to have interest in Shaheed, along with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/us\/nfl\/green-bay-packers\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Green Bay Packers;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Green Bay Packers<\/a> wideout Romeo Doubs.

Alec Pierce will most likely be out of their price range.<\/p>\n<p>Some around the league are linking Shaheed to the Raiders. The feeling is that Las Vegas likes him a lot, though it will be selective at the position if the money gets too out of hand.<\/p>\n<p>This sets the stage for a battle between the Raiders and Bills for Shaheed, and maybe even Doubs, who could also be of interest to Las Vegas.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>And make that a three-way battle for Shaheed, as the Seahawks are likely to at least have interest in retaining him.
