Oakland Raiders sign....
 
Another old vet Carlos Rogers signs contract with Oakland Raiders

The Oakland Raiders have locked down another veteran in their ongoing roster rebuild.

The team announced Monday that it has signed former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Carlos Rogers. The Raiders offered visual proof via social media:

Rogers will turn 33 in July and is entering his 11th NFL season. He spent the last three seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, starting all 48 regular-season games he appeared in under Jim Harbaugh. Rogers saw his role diminished in the postseason following a hamstring injury and was cut three weeks ago in a move that created $5.1 million in cap space for San Francisco.

Rogers represents another short-term fix for general manager Reggie McKenzie. With Tarell Brown and D.J. Hayden locked into roles on the outside, expect Rogers to do most of his work out of the slot.

Old vets have brought wins & championships over the past 40 years. It seems to work for them. They'll be an intresting team this year!

I like how everyone is hating on the Raiders, at least they are trying. We're effortless.

Stay where yer at.. it's not like you dopes were just a player or two away from competing with the Broncos

Only advice I'd give the Chiefs, Chargers and Raiders is to sit back, build your team and in 2 years when Frankenberry retires from the Mule head stadium.. then make your move

Well with that much cap space they better spend it on what they need. Unlike the Chiefs where they have not much cap space to work with.

They walked into FA almost 40m under the cap. WTF did you expect?

There's a way to tweak the system and tweak contracts. Denver managed, not us.

That's actually a huge misconception. The Broncos were roughly 17m under the cap coming into this season and by releasing Champ Bailey and Chris Kuper that number increased to an even bigger 32m (excluding dead money). Compare that to our 4.5m and well... yeah it doesn't take a genius to realize why we aren't able to spend like others right now.
