Raiders 2023 free agency: 3 more former Patriots who make sense

With the draft approaching, the Raiders still have some holes to fill. Upon finishing a disappointing 2022 season, the members of Raider Nation were hoping to see the team add high-end talent to the Raiders roster this off-season and make a push to return to the playoffs once again in 2023. After all, the offense was still loaded on paper with Davante Adams, Josh Jacobs, and Darren Waller. Instead, Las Vegas has been incredibly conservative.

Las Vegas Raiders 7-round 2023 NFL Mock Draft: AR15 lands in Vegas

Las Vegas Raiders have been one of the busier teams in free agency as they continue to build up the roster on both sides of the ball. The early free agency signings were focused on the offense as they brought in a new quarterback in Jimmy Garoppolo and a few weapons for him in Jakobi Meyers and Philip Dorsett. The defensive backfield was one of the weaknesses for the Raiders in 2022 so it makes sense that it would become a focus in this off-season. With all of these moves, we can imagine that the Raiders' draft plans will be altered quite a bit so we will do our best to examine the moves and present you with an updated mock draft based on those moves.

Las Vegas Raiders: Is the gap widening in the AFC West heading into 2023? The Las Vegas Raiders have not made too many splashy additions this offseason, but has that led to an even bigger gap in the AFC West? It has certainly been an interesting offseason for the Las Vegas Raiders, as they said goodbye to Derek Carr after nine seasons as the starting quarterback. In his place, Jimmy Garoppolo arrives on a three-year deal, and despite a reputation for not being able to stay healthy, he has some high expectations.

49ers sign free agent DL Austin Bryant

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers signed free agent defensive lineman Austin Bryant to a one-year contract on Thursday. Bryant adds depth for San Francisco after the team lost several defensive linemen in free agency already. Key contributors Samson Ebukam, Charles Omenihu, Jordan Willis and Hassan Ridgeway have all signed with other teams. Bryant was originally drafted by Detroit in the fourth round in 2019. In four years with the Lions, he had 65 tackles, 4 1/2 sacks and one pass defensed in 33 games. He played nine games last season with nine tackles and one pass defensed.

NFL free agency: Jets are winners, Raiders are losers. The Broncos? Who knows?

Winners: Detroit Lions With Aaron Rodgers ready to depart Green Bay , the Lions are in pole position to win the NFC North. They overhauled a shoddy secondary during the early days of free agency, adding CJ Gardner-Johnson, Cameron Sutton, and Emmanuel Moseley. They snatched Gardner-Johnson from the Eagles, reuniting him with Dan Campbell and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, both of whom worked with the player in New Orleans. Gardner-Johnson is just 25. He plays the invaluable wherever-you-need-me, nickel/safety/corner/box defender spot on the defense. Last season, he was the league's co-leader in interceptions. He entered the offseason looking for a mega-money, multi-year deal. Instead, the

Before one of the biggest games of his NFL career to date, new Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo received a text message from an old friend. It was from Josh McDaniels, who wished Garoppolo luck in the San Francisco 49ers' 2022 NFC divisional-round matchup with the Packers in Green Bay. At that point, McDaniels and Garoppolo hadn't spoken to each other in a few years, but they maintained a connection that dated back to the New England Patriots drafting the veteran quarterback in 2014.
