Raiders FA thread (cuts/signings/rumors)

Saves us 6m against the cap, with no dead money (thank you, Reggie Mac).

With TJ Carrie a FA, this leaves Sean Smith, Gaeron Conley, and Dexter Mcdonald as our only DBs currently.

Raiders FA thread (cuts/signings/rumors)

Figure a big thread will make it easier to navigate. Two big news pieces today:

- Sean Smith is cut, subsequently arrested, and will serve a year in jail stemming from a fight at a family gathering last year

- Marshall Newhouse was just cut, leaving the starting RT wide open (if it wasnt before)

Also missed over the weekend: We got our Jelly back

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2753738-justin-ellis-raiders-reportedly-agree-to-3-year-15-million-contract

3 years, 15m, 6m guaranteed. Considering its 6m gtd and Reggie made the deal, my guess is that its 3/4/5 yearly deal with a 3m signing bonus paid in the first year, making the first year 6m and the only guaranteed year at all.

Jordy Nelson To Meet With Raiders, Seahawks, Saints https://football.realgm.com/wiretap/40236/Jordy-Nelson-To-Meet-With-Raiders-Seahawks-Saints

If it comes down to those three teams I think the Saints are the best fit for him.

It's going to be nice having his veteran leadership.
I personally believe our locker room needs it.
I read this means that Crabtree will be gone now.

Could we not have traded Marquette King? I never thought he'd be released.
