2. Marquel Lee

Seeing how Marquel Lee has managed to start 16 of 29 games over the last two seasons for the Raiders, the team clearly earned a steal in the draft back in 2017 with the linebacker falling to the fifth round.

Best part is, Lee only seems to be scratching the surface of his true potential, and Oakland willing to consider him in a trade sounds ridiculous to even consider, but keep in mind this is a team that dealt a few key players last season.

In other words, if the Raiders were willing to move on from Khalil Mack and Amari Cooper, why wouldn’t they consider the possibility of Lee if the offer was right?

Despite appearing to be set at the moment when it comes to linebacker thanks to players like Dante Fowler Jr. and Clay Matthews, there is a little bit of uncertainty surrounding the position beyond the 2019 season.

Without question, Lee seems worthy of giving up a future draft pick to acquire, and could even make a case for himself being part of the long-term plans in Los Angeles if the opportunity were to present itself.

Of course, the toughest factor of all would be the Raiders willingness to consider Lee in a trade knowing his potential, which is why this falls into the category of being a long shot for the Rams, although it’s still fun to think about.
