Las Vegas Raiders WR Jack Bech and WR Dont'e Thornton Jr. likely will have roles in the passing game during their rookie seasons since the Raiders did not make any big moves at the position during the offseason, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Ryan McFadden.
Huddle Up: Thornton seemed to be more involved with the starting offense during offseason workouts, so he may have more fantasy value than Bech at this point. Fantasy players should monitor both players during training camp and the preseason because they could be a late round picks in some leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders WR Dont'e Thornton Jr. has "already become a top target" for QB Geno Smith, according to Levi Edwards of Raiders.com.
Huddle Up: It remains to be seen if Thornton can work his way into the starting rotation, but building a connection with Smith is certainly a step in the right direction. Thornton has a rare combination of size and speed, but he is probably more of a keeper league sleeper for now.

Las Vegas Raiders WR Dont'e Thornton Jr. received snaps with the first-team offense during practice Tuesday, June 10.
Huddle Up: Thornton has been a standout performer during offseason workouts, and the Raiders do not have a clear No. 2 wide receiver behind Jakobi Meyers. Fantasy players should keep an eye on him during training camp and the preseason because he could be a late round pick in fantasy leagues that can help later in the season.
