Raiders released S Gibril Wilson.

Raiders released S Gibril Wilson.

Similar to DeAngelo Hall, Wilson signed a lengthy deal just a year ago for $16 million guaranteed. Though he was productive with 129 tackles in 2008, Wilson was never worth what the Raiders paid. Now that they've spent big to keep Nnamdi Asomugha and Shane Lechler, Wilson was more of a luxury than a necessity. Fellow safety Michael Huff survives for now.

Does he play SS or FS? He seemed pretty good when he was with the Giants...

I liked him going into last season. I wouldn't write him off after a year in Oakland. He's worth a look.
