Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard took to Twitter to suggest that the Oakland Raiders would be a great landing spot for former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell.
After sitting out the entire 2018 NFL season, Bell recently became an unrestricted free agent after the Steelers chose not to use the franchise tag on him.
So, with a player of Bell's caliber now officially on the market, there will likely be plenty of people hoping to see him join their favorite team.
That's why when Bell sent out a tweet asking everyone where he should go, Lillard made sure to mention the Raiders as a possible destination.

Obviously, the Raiders would likely be intrigued by adding Bell due to his ability to impact both the rushing and passing attack.
He was used effectively in both aspects of the game with the Steelers, and Jon Gruden could certainly find ways to utilize him in what Oakland hopes will be a more consistent offense next season.
There are a lot of areas of improvement for the Raiders after a 4-12 season overall, but adding elite playmakers should be a top priority for the franchise.
If Gruden and company are able to do that, Oakland should start to make strides.
