Haha. The Raiders should be thinking about trying to get a franchise QB this year too, especially since they pick in the top 10. Again.
well on the opposite ends of the spectrum I saw a mock draft where the Jets do the following 1st round Matt Stafford 2nd Round Clint stintim (can play middle if needed) 3rd round Shannon Greene
Is it true that Big Al is buying up ever Doughnut shop in the Oakland area to ban Russle and keep him from Getting his "playing weight" back up to 320?
Whoa that was bad.... I'd love to see Mays fall to us...... I think should Ryan be the guy you know defense is how you win games so I would imagine D would be the way to go although I wouldn't mind seeing a big fast WR drafted. BTW I couldn't imagine Maclin with the Texans. They already are a fun team to watch but you add a guy like Maclin into the mix and watch out.
Raiders have their franchise Qb jamarcus russell . finished the season very strong and had a higher Qb ranking than either eli or Peyton manning had in their first 16 games starting. all raiders have to is tweak their oline somewhat. Was it coincidence that Russell finished very strong when raiders inserted Mario henderson 6'7 325 at Lt. Lets see he shutout R seymour, Mario williams and gaines adams. Not bad and he goes into next season at Lt. lg R gallery 6'7 325 keeps getting better under guidance of Tom cable. should have made the probowl last year as he clearly had better year than faneca. c Jake Grove 6'4 305 Rg Kwame harris 6'7 325 was disasterat Lt but like Gallery, is great fit at guard. Gives raiders two athlethic guards who are able to block on second level. Both inside are equally excellent run and pass blockers. Rt Michael Oher 6'5 315-325 (draft with first pick0) Not only would that oline be sick blocking for the run but that Oline would be great blocking for pass. Raiders start that line and lookout for their offense. Btw down stretch Raiders also found two young Wrs they can built around. johnnie lee Higgins 5'11 195 (showed hes more than just a great returner) and Chaz schilens 6'4 225 4.3 something 44 inch vertical. Thats not counting raiders m ost promising young Wr Arman shields 6'1 195. 4.38 and who won all the drills for wrs,at the combine. Raiders just IR to let him fully recover from his injuries.(missed 2007 college season due to injury0 Raiders get that veteran Wr in Fa Like Housandmana(sp?) To be russell dependable Wr and role model to their talented Wrs. Its a very young offense that only going to get better with time.
LMAO so basically your entire roster is filled with potential? And Houshmanzadeh isn't going from one crappy franchise to another unless you offer him a fortune.
Thats exactly what Im saying. Raiders roster is loaded with young talent on both sides of the ball. Houshmanzadeh is a west coast kid. So there could be appeal to play in front of his famikly and friends. Dosen't hurt to have a franchise Qb throwing the football to him. Houshnmanzadeh is no dope, he sees the incredible young talent they have on offense. Don't Hate or be jealous.
Why would I be jealous of the Raiders of all teams lol? And after what senile Al Davis did by releasing Deangelo Hall in his 1st season and upsetting Asomugha (ur best player) I doubt you'll be able to attract fa's for a while. And i like how you get at us for liking someone like Ratliff who we believe might have potential yet you say your team is filled with potential talent which we have yet to see :rofl:
Russell is garbage. All the Raiders players can run fast and look like great athletes but they all suck. How much did you give up for Deangelo Hall? two 2nd rounds picks and a boat load of money? What team does he play for now? Until Al Davis dies you need to find another team.
No Al Davis did the smart thing and he was willing to cut a player that didn't fit the Raiders system. Raiders play man to man 98% of the time. deangelo Hall is more comfortable playing off his man than playing Raiders traditional bump and run. Raiders could cut a Deangelo Hall because they had a CB Chris Johnson 6'1 200 already on the roster. This guy a late developer and he fits the Raiders system like a Glove. ( ITs a shame they blew a second round pick0 Teams tested Chris Johnson alot and he more than held his own. Gave the Raiders two Of the better starting Cbs in the Game. . Chris Johnson is a Freeagent and you can bet he is Raiders number 1 Priority .( N asomugha will get franchise tag. Raiders are extremely blessed at Cb they lose nothing if they have to play Stanford Routt 6'1 195 on the outside. The problem the Raiders have is all three of those Cbs are more comfortable playing on the outside ,than inside, on the slot reciever. Finding a Cb that can match up to those slotreciever is still priority. Lets see ratcliffe Playing against other team scrubs is not proving hes a capable NFL QB. At least Jet fans got off that midget Jock strap- K Clemens. Trevor Scott a sixth rounder had five sacks last year. You Look at Him and Greyson Gunheim 6'5 265 triangle numbers and you know Raiders have something special. Now you take one best coaches developing speed rushers Keith Milliard. Heck yea I like both chanceds developing into stud Des.
again Russell had a Higher Qb rating than Both Peyton and Eli manning starting his first 16 games. Raiders look like they found one tackle LT Mario Henderson. Now they draft a Lt with their first pick to play RT . ive Raiders two Tackles that can protect him and hes going to do some damage. Again see what he did against your offense- couldn't muster a pass rush.
^ QB rating means a lot. Thats been proven over and over again. It means everything to a QBs status and how many rings they are going to win over their career and who has the biggest ding dong.
