Raiders agree to terms with receiver Nelson Agholor, guard Erik Kush

The Raiders went on the offensive Saturday in the second wave of free agency, agreeing to terms with wide receiver Nelson Agholor and guard Erik Kush, according to a team source.

This comes after opening free agency with seven signings, five on defense, as the Raiders remain one of the NFL's busiest teams in terms of upgrading their roster heading in to the NFL draft April 23-25.

Agholor, a former first-round pick out of USC, caught 224 passes for 2,515 yards in five seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles and had 39 catches for 363 yards and a career-low 9.3 yards per catch in 11 games last season. Terms were unavailable, but ESPN reported the contract was for one season.

Kush, who turns 31 in September, is a well-traveled guard who played in all 16 games last year for the Cleveland Browns with seven starts. He was a sixth-round draft pick out of California (Pa.) by the Chiefs in 2013 but has also played for the Buccaneers, Rams and Bears.
