 By Number During the off-season NFL teams are allowed to expand their rosters to 80 players. The Raiders currently have four free agents, all of them unrestricted. This roster does not include those four remaining free agents. As the weeks pass the likelihood of their returning to the Raiders for 2008 grows less and less. The team's five draft choices, shown in green, are unsigned and do not count toward the limit of 80. We show them on this roster because it is a virtual certainty that they will be signed before the start of training camp in late July. In the days since the draft, the Raiders have signed 12 undrafted free agents, all of whom do count toward the limit. They are shown on this roster in blue. Finally, CB Nnamdi Asomugha, designated an exclusive franchise free agent by the team, is shown in orange (but not counted) since he has indicated he intends to play for the team but has not signed the team's tender offer. The Raiders and Asomugha's agent have until July 15 to negotiate a long-term contract. Because he is unsigned, however, he is currently forbidden from practicing with his teammates.
