With plenty of salary-cap room, Las Vegas Raiders general manager Tom Telesco was expected to extend the contract of multiple pending free agents, but he never did.
Now, these players will be evaluated by a new group of coaches front-office people. So, they may not feel the same was as the Telesco and his staff did about them and there’s no guarantee these players will fit the new system.
Yes, the new regime will be flush with salary-cap room (in a weak class), so they will have money to spend and they could and likely will look to keep some of the free agents.
