Besides Chris Long having the last name Long like the legendary Howie Long, lets just say theoretically if his name was Chris Jones. What makes him so great? Would the Raider nation want the guy if he was named Chris Jones? It just sounds like we are getting caught up in this he is a Legend like his Dad thing and this is coming from a guy who wants to see McFadden wearing #34 in honor of the old Bo Jackson taking it to the house 6.5 yards a pop days. ha ha ha LOL!!!!! If Long gets 12 solo sacks this year (great season)that is less than the Raiders totaled last year and what was our record? Come on Raider nation we need a home run hitter!!!!

There are still some descent DT out there in FA or if we can get a 2nd and 3rd or 3 and 4th for some of our baggage then Al will pick DMac (in for visit soon), then a OT in 2nd or 3rd, DT/LB in 3rd or 4th, and a QB in the 6th or 7th. If we can get LSU's QB in the 6th or 7th as #3 on the depth chart that would be great. Then hopefully next year Al can trade Walter for a 3rd or 4th round pick to make up for that lost 5th round to ATL. I think Kiff was being coy to ward off Jerry or the Jets from trading up.

Except for one little thing Kiffen said that is bothering me. He said that they were NOT going after a running back... WHAAAAAA??? Lane is too smart for that. you never say that even if it's true. At this point it could be anything like a lil misdirection... Maybe they want McFAD-den and believe someone above will take him? Or NOT? The thing that intrigues me is that he said it and Lane is a smart SOB guys... Frankly I can't wait to find out. I'll say this, Al's making this off season very interesting... Hopefully, the season turns out to be as much fun... Oh and what's with all of these recipes?!?!?!?! The CHEF's blog is elsewhere... I try not to be negative especially with fellow RAIDER FANS so please guys... this ain't the place... GO RAIDERS!!!!!!
