The Las Vegas Raiders have shed another former high draft pick of the previous regime.
The Raiders are releasing safety Johnathan Abram, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported on Tuesday, per a source informed of the plan. The Raiders have since announced Abram’s release.
Vegas attempted to trade the former first-round pick at the deadline but found no takers. Now they’ll cut bait.

Raiders release former first-round safety Johnathan Abram. He has to be better than K’Von Wallace.
You know what to do, Howie.
