Day one of free agency was not boring if you’re a Raiders fan. It saw the Raiders make the biggest splash of the day, landing top defensive tackle Christian Wilkins and later add QB Gardner Minshew as well. While watching their own free agents get snapped up by other teams including Josh Jacobs (Packers), Bilal Nichols (Cardinals), and Jermaine Eluemunor (Jets).
They are still left with a lot of needs and a lot of solid free agent talent still out there by which to fill them. Here are the best available on the market for the Raiders to address their many needs after day one.
