A Raiders official informed me at the 3pm Pacific time deadline that the team would not be announcing anything until 6pm. This despite their cuts having been handed in long before the deadline and reports flying around, we must wait for official word. But in the meantime, reports have been coming in.
Early reports have rookie seventh round pick, David Bass, being waived.
Shortly thereafter, reports had Matt McGloin making the roster with other reports that the Raiders would not be cutting Tyler Wilson either, which would mean the team keeps four quarterbacks.
Then Tyler Wilson confirmed he's still a Raider:
Thanks for all the messages. Excited to be here in Oakland, prep for the regular season. Congrats to the Hogs on the win today!! #Raiders

Safety, Reggie Smith, tweeted that he'd been cut by the team.
Back to the drawing board I appreciate the raiders for the opportunity. It just wasn't in the big man plans for me to be here. #TrustInHim

Shortly thereafter, reports have undrafted rookie receiver, Conner Vernon, being cut.
Conner Vernon waived by Raiders.
