It's almost here. Free Agency. Just one business day remains before the free-for-all begins where teams can begin negotiating with free agents ahead of the March 9 deadline. And as we discovered in previous years, by the time the deals are announced, most have long since been reported.

Over the past few weeks, I have been putting together Raiders Free Agent wish lists at each position of need for the Raiders. Those wish lists have been at cornerback, safety, linebacker, offensive tackle, offensive guard, running back, and defensive end.
The secondary is first and foremost as Jack Del Rio has made it very clear the Raiders will be aggressive to add talent there, both in free agency and the draft.
At linebacker, it's filling the middle linebacker spot that is most crucial. There are a few good options on the market to do that. Then it's all about finding a couple players for the offensive line. Most importantly left tackle and right guard. Then adding another pass rusher at the defensive end spot and a complementary back to go with Latavius Murray. If the Raiders can fill all or even most of these positions next week, they will have had themselves a fine free agency.
Here are all the wish list players in order big board style to get us all ready for free agency.
