Oakland Raiders Free Agency: Tracking 2012 Signings, Targets and Rumors

It was an up-and-down 2011-2012 season for the Oakland Raiders. Owner Al Davis died and Hue Jackson coached the team to an 8-8 record. 

Mark Davis took over the team and hired Reggie McKenzie to take over the football operations. McKenzie will begin to process of changing the Raiders football operations to more closely align with the rest of the teams in the NFL.

McKenzie has a lot of work to do and this offseason tracker has been created to keep you up-to-date on every roster move.

We'll review the Raiders' salary cap situation, the most glaring roster holes and the options to fill them. The Raiders have a handful of current free agents and we'll determine if they should stay and at what average annual dollar value.

The Raiders will be looking at free agents beyond their own and we'll look at how much cap room the team has after re-signings and what kind of contracts the Raiders could offer these free-agent targets.

With only a couple of draft picks in the 2012 NFL draft, we'll finish by looking which college prospects will help the Raiders fill roster spots in 2012.
