The Las Vegas Raiders have agreed to terms with former Los Angeles Rams linebacker Cory Littleton and in doing so, changed the dynamic of the first-round draft picks they hold. Throughout the offseason, the team has been in need of linebacking talent, and it was clear they would use one of their first round picks on either Oklahoma's Kenneth Murray, or Patrick Queen from LSU.
Littleton is a player the Raiders needed to sign, and they have. The team-friendly $36 million over three years with $11.75 million guaranteed gives the Raiders a much-needed boost at the linebacker position.
