Raiders add Wesley

Reports have the Raiders agreeing to a one-year deal with safety Greg Wesley, who was recently cut by Kansas City.

With Gibril Wilson's signing, the drafting of Tyvon Branch and the return of Jarrod Cooper, I don't see the need for another safety. Don't forget Michael Huff is still on the team, too.

Best case is Wesley is somehow reborn in Oakland and makes the team and is still a hard hitter.

Worst case is Wesley is this year's Donovin Darius - a veteran who is past his prime that the Raiders bring in to see that fact in person.

Wesley lost his starting job last season and fell further on the depth chart when the Chiefs drafted safety DaJuan Morgan.
