Espn.com and 10 more
- By releasing Smith, the Raiders open up $8 million in cap space and take on nearly $19 million in dead cap money.
- The Raiders hold the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft and are widely expected to draft quarterback Fernando Mendoza.
- The Raiders opted to go in another direction. Smith's release clears the way for Mendoza's arrival. They can add an affordable veteran quarterback later if they would like.
