Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Raiders are bringing in free agent LB Zach Brown for a visit.

• A source tells Josina Anderson of Brown’s visit with the Raiders: “We expect this to be the first of a few visits, for now.“

This is the first reported visit for Brown since the free agent market officially opened last week.

The inside linebacker has been slow to develop up to this point, but we’re starting to see things pick up in recent days. Brown is one of the best free agents still available in this year’s market.

Brown, 27, is a former second-round pick of the Titans back in 2012. He finished his four-year rookie contract with Tennessee before signing on with the Bills as an unrestricted free agent last year.

He finished a one-year, $1,250,000 with the Bills and is once again testing the open market.

In 2016, Brown appeared in all 16 games for the Bills and recorded 143 total tackles, four sacks, one interception, two forced fumbles, and four pass defenses. Pro Football Focus rated him as the No. 17 overall linebackers out of 87 qualifying players.

We have him featured in our Top 50 Available Free Agents list.
