The Las Vegas Raiders linebackers position has had some changes this offseason. Here is a look at where the position so far:
New free agent added:
Elandon Roberts (Pittsburgh Steelers).
Free agent who departed:
Robert Spillane (New England Patriots).
Divine Deablo (Atlanta Falcons).
Current free agents:
Luke Masterson
Free agents retained:
Kana’i Mauga (Exclusive rights).
Signed to restricted free agent offer sheet:
Christian Ellis (New England)
Returners:
Amari Burney, Tommy Eeichenberg, Amari Gainer
Draft:
Whether or not the Patriots match Ellis’ offer sheet by Monday’s deadline, this is now definitely a major draft need and the Raiders will look at linebackers either in a trade-down in the first round or either in the second or third round.
