Who is a fit?
Las Vegas will could bring back a couple of the remaining UFAs, but there is nothing urgent. Training camp and preseason injuries could change thing.
Conclusion:
This was a very unimpressive free-agent class in Las Vegas to begin with. They had plenty of money and could prioritize whichever in-house options that they wanted and focused on Stokes and Koonce. It was somewhat of a surprise they didn’t re-sign Carlson, and instead, added Matt Gay. Other than that, there are no real surprises.
