Former Washington Redskins running back Roy Helu has signed a two-year, $4 million deal with the Oakland Raiders. The Patriots were reportedly interested in Helu's services.

New England has also been linked to former Lions running back Reggie Bush as well as internal options if they choose to go that route, so losing out on Helu isn't too big of a deal.
