3 defensive free agents the Las Vegas Raiders could still add for 2022

Ndamukong Suh, Defensive Tackle

The third name on our list has been thrown around for months now, and that is defensive tackle, Ndamukong Suh. Recently, we published a piece discussing the Raiders’ defensive tackle room, and how it has been ravaged by the PUP list, creating a need for bodies.

In Suh, they would not only get a player who could step in for those injured players but become an absolute star in Patrick Graham’s defense. Imagine a Raiders defensive line that was Crosby, Suh, and Jones across the front, as that kind of unit would cause nightmares for any signal-caller lined up across from them.

To navigate what should be a very tough AFC West, the Las Vegas Raiders have to be better on the defensive side of the ball, and play more consistent football. All three of these veterans could come in and help them in a big way, and with money to spend, you have to think Ziegler is not done adding talent to this roster.
