With free agency entering its second week, most fans have turned back to the draft. As the slow period begins, the teams\u2019 free-agent classes start to be graded as people look at which franchises have added to their rosters for improvement.<\/p>\n
The Las Vegas Raiders went to work on the first day with a plethora of signings. It was highlighted on the defensive side of the ball, with Quay Walker and Nakobe Dean standing out as the best of the class. Other additions, such as Kwity Paye and Jalen Nailor, will help add depth to the roster, and the trade for Taron Johnson solidifies the slot corner position. John Spytek was expecting to have more cap space with the Maxx Crosby trade, but the Raiders were able to bolster the roster.<\/p>\n
In this week\u2019s SB Nation Reacts, we ask Raider Nation if the team improved in free agency. The Nation is excited about the class, with 98% thinking the team improved.<\/p>\n
Hopefully, the Raiders don\u2019t become offseason champions, and it turns into wins on the football field. The 2019 free-agent class received similar reviews but flopped when it was time to suit up. Spytek is a great scout and understands what the team needs, and betting on former first-round picks can lead to success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With free agency entering its second week, most fans have turned back to the draft.
