Thanks Ace it will be good having a guy wearing #66 that does not resemble a turnstile.

thanks Ace, but we released Gibson and I noticed the UFA by him, but Johnstone and Badger where both released as well and I dont see them on there.

Gibson technically is an unrestricted free agent, he wasn't released - his contract is up. Whereas Badger and Johnstone's contracts were terminated (i.e., they were cut).

(Badger and Johnstone are on the dear departed list if you need their stats or anything.)

I keep free agents on the main roster, because there's a chance the team might re-sign them. Whereas guys cut, generally that's a sign they definitely don't want them.

Now, odds are Gibson won't be back (I mean, they gave away his jersey number), but I usually don't drop free agents until after there's some sign they won't be re-signed, say they aren't at the mandatory minicamp.

And thanks, everyone!

Delete WR Leo Bookman, on the PS last year. Waived, per Raiders.com.
