The Las Vegas Raiders have big-time issues on both sides of the ball, and here are three available targets they need to attack immediately.

With Days 1 and 2 of the 2022 legal tampering period in the rearview mirror, the Las Vegas Raiders really made no waves. They were rumored to be in on several available free agents, but the two days came and went, and the biggest signing was a special teams star in Darius Phillips.

On Wednesday, teams can actually start putting pen to paper, so while there have been agreements across the NFL, none of them are official until then. For the Silver and Black, they have added a ton of cap space in recent weeks, and are ready to build upon a team that won ten games last season.

Las Vegas has the money and the needs, so now is the time for them to really start reshaping their roster. David Ziegler and Josh McDaniels already have a solid base to start with, and they locked up Maxx Crosby on a long-term deal already, so now is the time for them to start adding the pieces they need to be perennial playoff contenders, and not just once every decade or so.

Here, we look at three monster targets for the Raiders entering the first day teams can actually sign free agents.
