It's been a busy offseason for General Manager Reggie McKenzie and his staff. Since the end of the 2014 season, McKenzie has been busy signing* *free agents to the roster in Oakland, as well as signing the 10-man 2015 Draft Class.
Let's take a quick look at McKenzie's offseason, and what new faces will be wearing Silver and Black in 2015.

LB Curtis Lofton – Lofton is set to be the new man in the middle for the Silver and Black in 2015. If nothing else, Lofton is durable, as he's started every game he's played in since 2009.
DT Dan Williams – The 6'3'' 215 pounder comes to Oakland by way of the Arizona Cardinals where he appeared in 70 games with 40 starts.
