Search Raiderjeaux's post hall of fame. It should be in the trash talking forum, while it might make you laugh, it may also make you weep for the future of humanity if retards like that can exist.

http://www.ibabuzz.com/raidersblog/2...ing/#more-5079 The silver lining By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer Monday, May 11th, 2009 at 9:53 am in Oakland Raiders. If you?re one of those people shaking their heads because three of Oakland?s first four draft picks ended up with sore hamstrings, watching their new teammates finish minicamp Sunday, just wait until next year. That?s not to say it will be a year Darrius Heyward-Mike Mitchell and Louis Murphy won?t contribute anything. In the grand scheme of things, it?s not all that significant that they didn?t finish strong. Look at it as if they were thrown off the high-dive without knowing how to swim and their overprotective parents decided they?d be better off staying out of the pool on Sunday. Meanwhile, players who were dog-paddling a year ago were making like Michael Phelps (minus the bong). Some of the best looking players at the three-day camp included running back Darren McFadden, wide receiver Chaz Schilens and defensive end Trevor Scott _ all rookies last season. Tom Cable submitted Tyvon Branch, a first-team strong safety, as well, and he may well have been on film, athough nothing jumped out to my untrained eye. Going back a year further, the Class of 2007 was well-represented with starting left tackle Mario Henderson, wide receiver Johnnie Lee Higgins and running back Michael Bush looking confident and effective, and that doesn?t even include the injured Zach Miller and what they hope and expect out of quarterback JaMarcus Russell. ?It?s good to see the guys in year two and year three starting to develop and make plays,? Cable said. Defensive end Jay Richardson also flashed during the final two sessions with a pair of would-be sacks. What that means is this _ through all the upheaval of his cat fight with Lane Kiffin that crippled the team on the field, Al Davis and Co. have picked and developed enough good young players over the past two years to serve as the core of something competitive. That?s no small thing in a division which was won with a .500 record last year and a league which routinely sees dramatic turnarounds as Atlanta and Miami accomplished last year. Schilens couldn?t help but think back to a year ago and his fish-out-of-water experience as a seventh-round draft pick out of San Diego State. ?I know what they feel like and they?re dealing with it well,? Schilens said. ?They?re smart and they have a good knack for the game. They came out well prepared, and except for a little hamstring soreness I think they?re good. That?s something they?ll get used to.? Watching Schilens operate over the weekend, aside from a dropped pass in the end zone, and the decision to take a pass on Michael Crabtree seems reasonable. Schilens is taller, was faster coming out of college, and looks comfortable on the deeper patterns the Raiders plan to run this season. (They?re not necessarily connecting on a lot of them yet. Cable is promising that will come later). Schilens said there is no real way to be prepared for the first weekend as a pro. ?You get thrown into it, you deal with it and adapt as bet you can,? Schilens said. ?It?s a year later and I think I?m a better much better receiver mechanically.? McFadden looked like the McFadden of training camp a year ago, consistently beating defenders to the corner even when it seemed to be strung out. He was as sure-handed as any receiver, and putting him in the slot, in motion or on swing passes out of the backfield make a touchdown-on-any-play capability. It served as a reminder that McFadden, once the toe miseries began, was a shell of what he was in training camp. ?I?m eager to get going. I?ve got a steel toe in my shoe and I don?t even want to give that a chance to happen again,? McFadden said. Like Schilens, McFadden, watched the rookie class struggle and had a flashback. ?You want to try and do everything perfect and you?re going to make mistakes,? McFadden said. ?I?m sure not being able to go on the last day is going to play on their mind a little bit. You?ve got to let it roll off your shoulders.? The way minicamp is set up, with no locker room, I never got a chance to talk to Scott, who spent a lot of time getting around offensive tackles and racing in to the backfield. If Scott has put on weight _ he played last year in the 240s _ visual evidence suggests he didn?t overdo it, and that?s a good thing.
My apologies for getting a bit off-topic, but has anyone else noticed irony of RJ's avatar. The clueless expression on DHB's face is so fitting for RJ, lol... It's priceless. Sorry if it has been mentioned before... couldn't help but make the connection. Anyways; on topic... DHB certainly has the potential to be a pretty good wide receiver, and two days into minicamp I'm not going to call this guy a bust (no matter how temping it is with RJ trolling the board)... However, I sincerely doubt that he will ever be as good as Crabtree, or even Maclin for that matter. DHB has speed, cool... but he drops passes, doesn't have great body control, his production in college was questionable, and after watching a couple interviews with him, he seems a little slow upstairs. I know Jeaux here is an optimist, but I hope he wasn't actually hoping for Heyward Bey on draft day... if he was, he's even more retarded than he's already displayed...
This is classic you. If you read through all the OTHER blog items from that page, they're full of "Russell overthrew thisguy or thatguy" . . . "Russell threw a wobbler" . . . "DHB dropped Russell's pass" . . . "DHB was out again" . . . "DHB watched the punt drop five yards in front of him" . . . "Sloppy" . . . . "False starts" . . . and so on. So you, of course, post the article intended to tell Raiders fans - PAY NO ATTENTION TO ALL THAT HORRIBLE NEWS, EVERYTHING IS ROSEY!! Oh lordy. . .
Reminds me of this guy... "We have crushed the infidels at Saddam International Airport!!!!!!!! :rofl:
I don't even know how this new article posted by Jeaux is any better. So, a bunch of rookies got sore hamstrings and couldn't finish practice. Ok, big deal. Schillens runs the deep routes well, is fast and is tall (much better than Crabtree)...but Russell and his receivers are not connecting on those long passes. That's awesome. Also, Future Hall of Fame, All-Pro, Schillens dropped a pass in the endzone. Championship. Zach Miller, your best player is hurt. Ouch. McFadden looked as good as he did last year in camp because he's fast and can get to the outside. Nothing new. Oh, wait, they're splitting him out wide now and it automatically becomes a TD-on-any-play formula? Hm. Who would've thought the entire Raiders season last year could've been salvaged by just splitting DMC out wide. So let me get the formula straight now. DHB, DMC and Schillens...all they have to do is just sprint down-field and you'll be outscoring opponents by 5 TD's? Got it. You and these writers for the lowly Raiders are a joke Jeaux. Neither can successfully spin this god-awful mess.
I like how he always replies to the useless posts, and then when people actually say something insightful... he ignores them... good arguing skills Jeaux
He's already better than Jamarcus BUSTell that's for sure. His work ethic so far has been great and he doesn't even have a contract yet
If Burress posted on this thread he would still be a better poster than you, even with the blood-loss from his shot up leg dragging him in to delirium. I've reached the conclusion that you are either A)a dumbass that clearly needs to attend some more English classes B)Actually Al Davis (which would explain both the blind optimism about the Raiders and the total lack of football knowledge) or C)Someone so lonely and pathetic the only way he can get any attention whatsoever is to come online and be a tool. Personally, I am kind of hoping that it's all of the above.
Gee, So glad to see that not only are you staying cautiously optimistic, but you aren't letting any jets bias enter your analysis good job!:up:
that made me LOL... I've come to expect it. My guess is he's a newer jets fan... To be fair though, Jamarcus Russell hasn't shown much talent or poise so far in his NFL career.
