Greg Wesley, who stated in May that, “he was done,” with the Kansas City Chiefs, is now done with the Oakland Raiders.

 The 30-year old safety that signed with the Silver & Black in July attempted to compete for a back-up spot, but his inability to get on the practice field, conditioning and the availability of Adam Archuleta made him expendable.

 Archuleta’s signing was posted on the official Raiders web site today, and terms of the contract are reportedly the same as the safety that he will be replacing.

 Should Archuleta make the 53-man roster, he will stand to make $730,000.

 During a media session earlier today, head coach Lane Kiffin stated about Wesley’s status, “I don’t know that yet. He did move around well today.”

 Upon arriving to Oakland, Wesley raved about the direction of the team and commented on why he stayed in the AFC West. “With some of the transactions they made this year. Some of the players they got coming back. I feel that they will be a pretty good team this year.”

 As for Archuleta, the Raiders may take a look at him at strong side linebacker, a position they’ve been trying to solidify the last few seasons after finding stand outs Kirk Morrison and Thomas Howard in back-to-back drafts. 

 Oakland has used the often-injured Sam Williams and spot starter Robert Thomas in recent years at that position. This summer, special teams ace Ricky Brown has made a push atop the depth chart, but it is uncertain whether or not they will hand over the job to the inexperienced defender.

 Archuleta played linebacker in college, but has spent the majority of his pro career at safety while at St. Louis, Washington and Chicago.

 He played well under Lovie Smith in his early years as a Ram, and in 2005, he was a sought after free agent, eventually signing with Washington, for one of the richest deals ever given to a safety at that time (6-years for $30 million with a $10 million bonus).

 The Redskins traded Archuleta to Chicago after one campaign - reuniting him with Smith - for a sixth round draft choice. But after an uneventful and disappointing season in 2007 in which he started 10 of the first 11 games of the season prior to injuring his hand, the Bears released him.

 Archuleta has started 86 of his 103 contests since entering the NFL as the 20^th overall selection in the 2001 draft, compiling 423 solo tackles and four interceptions.

 He is known to be a solid tackler, but his struggles in coverage have been his downfall in recent years. At 5’11” and 215 pounds, it will be interesting to see how Archuleta plays in alignments where he is close to the line of scrimmage in run support and where he wont be asked to be the last line of defense in pass coverage down the field.
