Top-10 realistic free agent signings for the Las Vegas Raiders that still remain, and could help their 2022 team immediately.

In what’s been an eventful off-season in Las Vegas, as the Raiders have pieced together big move after big move. They can’t allow themselves to be too complacent, though. After all, there are still holes to be filled.

Dave Ziegler and co. have done a phenomenal job up to this point at keeping up to speed with division rivals Denver and Los Angeles, while giving the Raiders a legitimate chance to best the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West.

Davante Adams was the latest news down in Sin City, but it certainly hasn’t been the only addition. Take a look at the all the talent the Las Vegas Raiders have brought in since the 2022 free agency period officially started:

  • RB – Brandon Bolden
  • RB – Ameer Abdullah
  • FB – Jakob Johnson
  • WR – Davante Adams
  • WR – Mack Hollins
  • OL – Alex Bars
  • EDGE – Chandler Jones
  • DT – Bilal Nichols
  • CB – Rock Ya-Sin
  • CB – Anthony Averett
  • CB/ST – Darius Phillips

In addition to this, the new regime brought in cornerback Cre’von LeBlanc and defensive tackle Andrew Billings before the free agency period kicked off.

The Raiders aren’t done adding pieces, nor should they be. Despite this team getting better by a noticeable amount, position groups such as guard, tackle, linebacker, and safety stick out. Taking both this and the estimated cap space left after the Adams deal, here are my top-10 affordable free agents for the Las Vas Raiders.

Things taken into effect: Need, the market of player, estimated money left. Highly coveted players such as Mathieu, Collins, and Gilmore aren’t taken into consideration.
