The Raiders have had a mid season collapse the past two years. Nothing to write home about and they def need to improve. Funny thing is most of the guys they handed out big contracts to didn't play much or at all and they still went 8-8. That is bad management and bad luck.
Trent Brown - couple of games
Tyrell Williams - Out for the year
Lamarcus Joyner - Played all year
Incognito - few games
Cutting these 4 players got the Raiders under the cap and have given the Raiders 30M+ in available cap space. Mariota will probably be cut next saving an additional 10M. Giving the Raiders roughly about 40M in cap space to play with. This year will be interesting for free agents as there is less money to go around due to the lower cap so the Raiders might be able to pick up some bargains. That is if they manage to sign better contributing players.
