HENDERSON, Nev. -- Even though the Las Vegas Raiders went into free agency with plenty of money to spend, they didn't break the bank on any of their signings during the first week.
Las Vegas watched five defensive starters find new homes and addressed those positions at a discounted rate. The franchise's biggest free agent addition was safety Jeremy Chinn, who signed a two-year deal worth over $16 million with $12.25 million in guarantees.
Part of the Raiders' modest approach to the first week of free agency has to do with defensive end Maxx Crosby having a cap hit of $38.
