Could the Oakland Raiders try to land Will Smith, reuniting him with Dennis Allen?
Today the New Orleans Saints went on a cutting spree, releasing three of their defensive starters. Well according to Vic Tafur Will Smith could be re-uniting with his former coach.
“@JoeyBates2: Should #Raiders go after recently released Roman Harper?” >> maybe. but I can really see DE Smith reuniting with Dennis Allen

Raiders head coach Dennis Allen was the Saints defensive coach from 2006-2007 and was the secondary coach from 2007-2010. A reunion between Smith and Allen could be likely, as Smith’s injury in 2013 likely reduced his value on the free agent market and the Raiders would love to bargain shop and happen into one of the better defensive lineman on the market.
