Raiders 2026 unrestricted free agents ranked by re-sign value

5 days ago 2

There are a great man Raiders players who are set to become free agents should the team not re-sign them before the deadline. As you might expect, most of the team's free agents will probably not return. Such is the way on a team that finished with the league's worst record and is turning over its entire coaching staff.

These are the Raiders upcoming free agents listed in order of value to re-sign

High value

CB Eric Stokes (27) -- Had a resurgent season as a shutdown corner, showing why he was once a first round pick. Good cornerbacks can be hard to find, so keeping him would be a smart move for a Raiders team with a great many other needs.

Moderate value

G Dylan Parham (27) -- Coming off his rookie contract and having been a four-year starting guard. At times Parham has shown himself to be a decent starting guard. Certainly worth a shot with a competent offensive line coach. Something the Raiders didn't have last season.

Low priority

K Daniel Carlson (31) -- The once big legged All Pro (2022) has seen his numbers get worse every season since signing a big extension. He is now a replacement level kicker.
LS Jacob Bobenmoyer (29) -- His return could be contingent upon whether they bring back Carlson. If they do, then keeping the 'kick squad' intact might be smart.
LB Elandon Roberts (32) -- Roberts signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the team last offseason. He had some moments, but overall was a downgrade from the departed Robert Spillane, so looking for an upgrade at the position could be smart.
LB Devin White (28) -- Set a franchise record for tackles. But those who watched him saw too many times where he failed to make the stop at the point of attack. Tackles don't mean as much when they come more than three yards down the field or when it's because you gave up the catch. Something he did a lot.
