The job of a general manager is to turn over every stone to find talent. Interim general manager Champ Kelly is doing just that. The Raiders will work out former first-round pick DJ Fluker on Friday, according to Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report:

Fluker was originally a first-round pick by the San Diego Chargers in the 2013 NFL Draft. He started his career at right tackle before eventually making the switch to guard. He has started 96 games in his NFL career and has appeared in 108 altogether.
Fluker has not played in the NFL since 2020 and will turn 33 in March. However, Fluker held a private workout this offseason at Alabama for NFL teams to show that he has dropped a significant amount of weight and is ready to return to the league.
The Raiders have depth at offensive tackle, but could use some veteran help inside at guard. We will continue to update this story as more information becomes available.
