Raiders 2026 Free Agency Tracker: Keeping up with every move Las Vegas makes with their league-leading cap space
The Raiders can make a lot of moves.
The Las Vegas Raiders have significant free-agent funds, leading the league with $127 million in cap space. This financial flexibility enables them to pursue almost any transaction they desire, but they must make prudent decisions.
This is only the second offseason we will get to see general manager John Spytek work. So, what are we going to see from him? Well, at the NFL Combine, he was asked whether anything has changed in his approach as free agency approaches, and it’s safe to say Spytek has a certain way he likes to do things.
“I try to be the same guy every day. I got a great group of people around me in the scouting department, so as we approach free agency, I feel like, as a group, guys that were here when I got here, guys that have come in, we’re all speaking the same language now. We’ve got a great process in place, and to me, it’s always been about the people that you surround yourself with, and so I feel great about the group that we have supporting the organization right now from the personnel side.”
Just Sunday, the Raiders addressed their need at the nickel spot by trading for Buffalo Bills CB Taron Johnson. Now, they are set to make some moves in free agency. Here, we will be keeping up with every single one, even the smallest of moves. With as much money as the Raiders have, it’s going to be easy to miss out on a move they made, especially with people at work during the day and things of that nature.
So, if you miss some of the moves, or you get home from work and want to see what your team did, just check back here, and we will have it updated for you. Remember, the first two days of the week are the Two-Day Negotiating Period, and deals can’t be official until Wednesday, March 11.
