The Oakland Raiders have continued their effort to upgrade the talent on the roster via the expenditure of enormous amounts of money by signing free-agent defensive end Kalimba Edwards.
The deal, per Adam Schefter of NFL Network, is for two years and pays $5 million.
Edwards was released on March 13 by the Detroit Lions. He visited the Titans a few days later, but otherwise generated not much interest.
A second-round draft pick in 2002, Edwards spent six seasons with the Lions, appearing in 87 games and starting 22. He has 26 career sacks.

As a lifelong Lions fan, I say good riddance to “Kalimbust.”
Yet another failed high draft pick by Matt Millen.

He might have been a bust with Dertroit, but Al Davis has been known to take busts and make them pro-bowlers. He probally won’t get a lot of starting time with Derick Burgess on one end and Hopefully Chris Long on the other.
