Seymour `exclusive’ franchise player
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Thursday, February 25th, 2010 at 3:10 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders think so much of Richard Seymour even two first-round draft picks wouldn’t suffice as compensation.
Although the club has made no announcement, Seymour was the only one of six franchise players league wide to be given the “exclusive” designation, meaning no other teams can negotiate with him, according to an NFL press release.
The Raiders have since summed up their most signifcant personnel move of the offseason in two sentences and 24 words on their Web site.
As a non-exclusive franchise free agent, Seymour would have been free to field other offers, with the Raiders getting the choice to either match the offer or accept a pair of first-round draft picks in return. That would be twice as much as they paid New England to get him, having shipped their 2011 first-round pick to the Patriots.
As an exclusive free agent, Seymour will receive a minimum of $12.398 million for the season. The exclusive designation gives the player the average of the top five salaries at his position in 2009 (the $12.398 figure), the average of the top five salaries as of April 15, 2010, or 120 percent of their salary the previous year, whichever figure is greater.
If Julius Peppers lands a monster contract during free agency, it could drive Seymour’s 2010 price up.
The Raiders also used the exclusive designations with Charles Woodson and Nnamdi Asomugha.

Was wondering when Jerry was gonna get on top of this.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:14 pm
Obama is smart….he is taking a page directly out of FDR’s playbook.Ya gotta SPEND our way out
February 25th, 2010 at 3:14 pm
They could still be negotiating. It’s obvious Al wants to keep him on the roster. It’s possible he just didn’t want to let him loose while still talking long term numbers.
Either way, the Raiders always figure out the cap, even in the midst of a spending spree.
I expect at least one big namer in free agency and a few role player types, with the rest comin’ in the draft.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
Yep LA To TheBay,I really never cared how much da Raiders payed players simply because its not my $$$$
February 25th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
Will the Raiders sign:
A) Karlos Dansby
B) Antonio Bryant
C) Dunta Robinson
or
D) Trade for Cromartie
E) None of the above, stick to the draft
?
February 25th, 2010 at 3:20 pm
A…..I hope
February 25th, 2010 at 3:21 pm
Heard this was the non exclusive tag earlier in the day. Did that change this afternoon or was it incorrect in the first place?

Well it kind of is, but I know what you mean.
People who say, ‘oh he paid way too much for this guy or that guy.’ So what, as long as he plays (Nnamdi).
Drawback is guys who get overpaid and then underperform (DHB, Kelly – but in his case everyone seemed to think he got paid more than what he was worth – except Al of course).
February 25th, 2010 at 3:21 pm
This is yesterday’s news.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:22 pm
Grabbing Dansby and drafting a Lamarr Houston type would be maaaaaavolous
February 25th, 2010 at 3:22 pm
Eleven
February 25th, 2010 at 3:23 pm
Dansby goes to the highest bidder. We know Al will spend. We know Cable is not sold on Morrison at MLB.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:24 pm
Well just gotta weed those guys out and continue LA…its all ya can do

Will the Raiders sign:
A) Karlos Dansby = listed as an OLB, but still would be very helpful to us
B) Antonio Bryant = pain in the ass, but what WR isn’t it seems?
C) Dunta Robinson = has had a major injury and is not quite the player he used to be. Still good tho.
or
D) Trade for Cromartie = NO. Over rated.
E) None of the above, stick to the draft = Priotize selections in a deep draft. We have 4 in the top three rounds. This is the time to get some contributors.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:39 pm
Jerry go to the combine dude whats up
February 25th, 2010 at 3:44 pm
We would be silly to pass on Dansby,imo
February 25th, 2010 at 3:46 pm
Hell sign Dansby,next year if possible resign Seymour to a back-ended 3 year deal,then tag Dansby for the year after
February 25th, 2010 at 3:48 pm

February 25th, 2010 at 3:49 pm
What about Damarco Ryans MLB Houston. Restricted FA. Younger and better the Dansby.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:51 pm
Also talk to the Saints about Jamal Brown, they got by pretty good with out him. Beast of a LT when healthy.
February 25th, 2010 at 3:51 pm
Kell, look at the rate of growth once the War machine kicked in. GDP shot thru the roof.
I don’t know if the sight shows unemployment rates in the US during the war period, but I know that it dropped to single digits.
Here’s something else to look at.

February 25th, 2010 at 4:02 pm
That’s it, Beech? lol…I challenge you, and you DISAPPEAR..then come back when it’s safe?
In other words, don’t mess with the big boys.
I called your ass out at 1:00 above.
Nay, challenged your sorryass.
You posted a “don’t pick on me” reply…THEN LEFT.
I challenged you again..yet what was your response?
YOU DISAPPEARED FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF..and now show up with that sorry weak copout?
Again, lil man, I’ll torch your inept uneducated shytefetish ass…guaranteed. What? Not one single topic on the Raiders you feel you can hang with? NOT ONE??
Of course not…fool…you’re an idiot.
PRETENDING YOU COULD JUST MAKES YOU A COWARD, to go along with the idiot tag…
Now is when you can beg off…AGAIN..or disappear…again.
Offer is still there, lil man…admit you’re toast, or I’ll just keep calling you out, watching ya squirm.
I have a question..how’s it feel knowing that between you AND Kell, you can’t amass a single, much less a pair of balls?

Hoping Seymour has a Pro bowl “contract” year.
February 25th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
Hopefully the old man can get Seymours signature on a longer term deal.
February 25th, 2010 at 4:11 pm
This economy is making it rough RaiderLen.I hope things are better for you tho!

The War is a joke and we’ve been the punch line. The fallacy that the war is good for the economy is only true if your a f’in mercenary for a Texas based security company or the CEO shareholder of one of the multi national corporations raping our planet in the name of avarice.

But Al DOES do everything behind the HC’s back..where have you been?
Who hired the assts? Was that Cable..the guy who SHOULD have hired them, or was it Al, BEHIND CABLES BACK, where reporters informed Cable about Hue, and others coming on board?
Al blamed Shell for the problems, blamed Kiffin for the problems, and will blame Cable…just as he points fingers at others, never taking the blame. Only time Al took any responsibility was when he was asked if he took responsibility for the problems going on with the head coach hirings..and what could he say to that? No..I blame Amy??

Nnamdi, If #44 is directed towards me, you’ve missed the point of discussion.
I was reffering to the US economy during WWII.
I’m certainly not an advocate of War. Merely stating the effect WWII had on that eras economy and the resulting social changes.
Peace.
February 25th, 2010 at 4:17 pm
Seymour wasn’t worth the trade as it was..and now Raiders turn down the possibility of getting two first round picks?
Geez…1 step forward, 3 steps back…THE RAYDUUUUH’S
February 25th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
47. TRY not to be so stu-pid.
EVERYONE knows Davis calls the shots so OF COURSE he takes the Lions share of the balme for who HE hires! Can’t have it both ways.
“Davis is a dictator who never shares power!”
“Davis blames everyone when things go bad!”
Can you NOT see how ridiculous your lame azz argument is?

After WW2 we took control of Japan’s economy and set that GREAT Nation on the rightous path of Democracy with a HUGE INVESTMENT and it has worked out rather well,I would say….Where is the massive investment required to re-make Iraq?
There isnt any….Somehow the United States of America should be REAPING maximum benefits from Iraq.We spilled our blood for it.Why NOT take it?

I’m glad the Raiders traded their 1st rounder for an establised player. They should do that this year too. It’s better than watching another pathetic bust. What loser is the old fossil creaming over in this year’s draft?

60 minutes did a feature on the missing money a year ago.
That damn Minister of Defense guy from Iraq admitted he stole the money, moved to like Holland or somewhere like that, and can’t face extradition.
Exactly why we should have never stepped foot there in the first place. They ain’t worth a damn!!!
February 25th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
Wow exclusive tag for Seymour, I don’t think any team would even negotiate with him if it involves two first round and over $30 mill in guaranteed money. I don’t know what AL is thinking but I seen Seymour disappear many games but that’s OK if you really look at the reason behind his mediocre performance on those games. He played well against SD, KC but the first Denver game JR struggled and the whole defense knew that they wont have any chance with Mcfumble bringing them back gassed out of their lungs. Same goes against Houston and Giants but he played very well against Philly and as soon as Grad became our QB, you could see him working hard. Seymour is very moody player, he is not really a leader, he struggles in a weak defense, is he worth the money, I will take him instead of Peppers.
February 25th, 2010 at 4:59 pm
The Good ol USA can’t just march into a Country or Culture that has a history of Tribal Warfare and expect that we can “instill” democracy.

I can probably answer that to some extent. lst off, it’s never going to be for just one reason but the Republicans have basically DOUBLED the defense budget over the last 10 years. And it was not small to begin with. When you are spending THAT MUCH MONEY on defense, you better have a few skirmishes going on, otherwise the constituency will realize that amount of spending is a sham.

To label Civil Rights as a Democrat victory is selfish at it’s core.

As for this one, the economy was already recessing at an enormous rate in the last 3 quarters of the Bush’s last year and that momentum has carried into the lst year of the Obama administration altho it has seemed to stabilize slightly. Can’t really blame Obama for the economy. It is well documented that the Clinton Administration and Intelligence Agencies passed onto Bush a warning of a mainland attack. That intelligence was ignored. But then again, it fits very nicely for justification with my post #91.

Everything Bush and Paulson lobbied to do in 2008 to fix the economy was supported fully by a Democratic led House and Senate.
And Bush and Paulson taking the first TARP money and buying Citi shares was the single biggest move to socialism this country ever made.

The Reason why the south is all republican now is the Civil Right Movement, signed into law by LBJ. It cost the Democrats the South. So, I give them credit for that.

Jimmy Carter handed over to Ron Reagan hostages in Iran, Stag flation (rising interest rates and unempolyment and infaltion) Home loans 30 year fixed…23%
Jimmy Carter handed us a nutered US Miltary.
Bill Clinton from no effort of His own benifitted from the dot com bubble.
Do you remember all of the venture capital that was invested during that time?
W sucks, I have no rebuttal to Him. : )
===============================================
Actually Len, I would completely argue against this. Most of the Civil Rights victories came because of Bob Kennedy as Attorney General of the United States. The Eisenhower Administration basically ignored Civil Rights in the South because of the Southern Voting block.
As for Carter, once again, the Republicans were the ones that gutted the US economy. 15 years of Vietnam had ruined the economy. The US economy was recessing greatly from 1973-1978 as a direct result of Republican war policies. War is an excellent short term panacea for an economy that is in trouble (See Germany 1930-1933) but it is a poor long run economic driver. When Jimmy Carter took over the American economy was not in good shape and had a very poor prognosis.
Lastly, the economic boom of the 90’s was the DIRECT RESULT of Clinton and his policies. One of the main things that the Clinton Administration did was CUT defense spending down to approximatley $375B a year. Right now, it is over double that! Investors, instead of dumping money into Raetheon or General Dynamics dumped that same investment money into this new fangled thing Clinton and Gore kept hyping called the internet. In fact didn’t Gore invent the internet? (Just kidding.)

Not really seeing Pierre-Paul as an overall #8 based on one years worth of production. Especially considering he played in a non major.
Donald Butler in the 2nd round? They must be high and Ducasse is not lasting to the third. He will be gone by mid second. And then we draft a safety? What the heck is wrong with Huff, Branch and Mitchell that we would need a third round safety? What are these guys thinking? If Claussen or Bradford are sitting there at #8, you have to think hard about taking one of them. Chances would be slim tho, and as I wrote yesterday, I think they would have more trade value with Buffalo and Denver picking right behind us, and both of them needing Q’s.

One other thing that caught my eye. They have Alabama DT Terrence Cody rated as a seventh round pick. Say he showed up at the senior bowl at 370+. Over 40 lbs. overweight. I can see him slipping some, but not to the seventh rd. IMO. I think he would e a steal in the 4th.
===========================================
Sorry Buckeye, but these picks seem kind of out there. And I mean Planet Zadok out there. I hope you didn’t pay any money for that dross. You get better info from some of the more knowledgable posters here on this blog yourself included.

To be honest, Japenese Americans got compensated for the period of discrimination they faced during WWII when they got imprisoned, Native Americans were given lands and rights not to pay taxes for the massacre that took place, Hispanics were financially compensated for their lands been taken through war. The reasons blacks can’t get compensated is because its hard to proof who suffered, the lineage is broken for most black people. They can only go back to maybe a second grandfather which is primarily during the Jim Crew era. However, there are those who say affirmative action is a form of compensation, to be honest I am black and affirmative action only compensates rich or middle class blacks who have the knowledge to attend universities. The ghettos has the poorest schooling system you can imagine, affirmative action does nothing, the way you compensate blacks is through incentives not food stamps, provide them tax breaks and provide them jobs rather then having a liquor store and gun shops.

I am hearing that WR/KR Jacoby Ford can run a 4.2 or 4.3 and is projected 5th round pick, I think we need a skilled kick returner, I doubt Higgins can get over the mental hit, Nick Miller is still not proven basically we dont know if he can succeed in returning kicks for prolonged period of time, he could start fumbling and we end up in square one having Higgins or whomever return for 20 yards, you see what I am saying, what do you think?

=====================================
I completely agree. Chokie Lee Higgins was just TERRIBLE last year. Maybe it was the WACK Weddle put on him, I don’t know, but he was terrible in every aspect of the game. His return game was awful, he was a complete non-factor in the passing game other than one or two receptions the entire season, AND he FUMBLED like five times, which no one talks about. Cut his ass!
February 25th, 2010 at 7:44 pm
If the old man Al decides to go O-Tackle with that #8 pick….I’m convinced the pick should be on…..
Anthony Davis, Bruce Campbell and maaaaaybe Vlad Ducasse.
Of course it will depend on their workouts and overall balance and footwork….but Davis reminds me of Oher when it comes to his measurables, 6′5, 323, his versatility and his ability to both run block and pass block well and he is has long arms at 34 inches. He has a nasty mean streak as well.
Campbell is a physical specimen at 6′6, 315lbs and he his extremely long arms measured at 36 inches today! WOW! He has a mean and nasty streak also, but the questions with him are his durability.
Vlad Ducasse looks like a monster at 6′4, 332lbs with 34 3/4 inch arms, but does he have the footwork to be a pure true LT or will he be a better fit as a RT?
February 25th, 2010 at 7:45 pm
Also, do you think a 2 rounder is good if we can get a guy like Boldin, Arizona wants to trade him, I am sure no team would offer first for a guy who is really a number 2 wrs but a legit possession Wr who could get YAC is what we need, Boldin fits that bill, do you think he is worth a second plus ofcourse new money?
February 25th, 2010 at 7:46 pm
Vlad Ducasse?????
The guy is projected 3th -4th rounder, I researched about him last night, he is injury prone, you wanna take him 8th overall Dknight????
February 25th, 2010 at 7:49 pm
Remember….the Raiders do have the ammunition to TRADE UP this year by having the #8 pick, the 2nd rounder, and the key picks….the TWO 3rds and TWO 5ths to use as bait.
If the crazy old man Al wants the beast DT Suh….it maybe possible to get him!

We need a DT, MLB, and an OT this daft.
Anything other than The top 2 DTs, McClain, or an OT will be a reach.

=====================================
I’m kind of thinking the same thing. I am a little surprised that so many “analysts” have us taking a DE at #8. Between Seymour, Shaughnessy, Richardson, and Scott, I am just not seeing a huge need there. Okung if available at OT yes, Anthony Davis and Bruce Campbell seem like nice players to me.
February 25th, 2010 at 7:58 pm
Seymour,
They also have safety listed as position of need. They say although the raiders were happy with the play of Huff, Branch and rookie Mitchell, they wouldn’t hesitate to draft either Taylor Mays or Eric Berry at eight or even trade up to do so. WTF? That doesn’t even make sense.
They also have DE as the Raiders 2nd biggest need behind OT. I don’t get it. I see DE as one of this teams strong points, with depth. A nice blend of veterans and youth. Seymour, Ellis, Shaunessy, Richardson. Trevor Scott can even move back to DE in passing situations.
February 25th, 2010 at 7:59 pm
Hey O,
I agree. I’d like to spend our early money on OL, and then fill out the rest of the draft with DL, LB
February 25th, 2010 at 7:59 pm
I like Ducasse. He played well Senior Bowl week, which will raise his draft status. If we took McClain and he was there at the top of the 2nd and none of the other good tackles were, I would take a flyer on him. He’s Haitian. I will bet he will be a nice prospect for someone.

See, I completely agree with your breakdown here. Now that being said, if Eric Berry is sitting there at #8 overall, I wouldn’t HESITATE to grab him. He is a very very good prospect. Taylor Mays is a bit of a tweener, which is a problem, and he would have gone higher if he came out last year. He got a bit exposed last year as not quite as good a coverage guy as you would want. I got to see him play live once last year and he looked pretty good to me just not a need right now.
You look at what teams like Indy did when they drafted Manning and they got guys around him and they got guys on the Oline. People forget they drafted Tarik Glenn 19th overall and he played well for them for 8 years. We need to do that.

Not many people knew who Chris Johnson was until the running back from East Carolina turned heads at the 2008 scouting combine by running a 4.24-second 40-yard dash. After that 40, the Tennessee Titans chose Johnson with the 24th pick in the draft, and Johnson is now the league’s reigning offensive player of the year.
LSU running back Trindon Holliday wants to do Johnson one better.
“My goal is to run a 4.23,” Holliday said today in Indianapolis.
It’s not out of the question. The 5-foot-5 Holliday is a track star who has run the 100-meter dash in 10 seconds flat, and he says he’s been timed at 4.21 seconds in the 40.
“It’s not really a competition,” Holliday said of trying to beat Johnson’s time. “I just want to come out and run as fast as I can. But I am going to try to.”

Trindin Holliday is a blur that kid is so freakin’ quick it’s frightening. While only 5′6″ he is very well biult and can get into open field in a blink of an eye. I wouldn’t give up a ton to get him but I wouldn’t mind seeing him in silver and black at all.
He is not a track guy he’s a football player in a track stars body. I’ve been very critical of DHB but that kid is a physical freak if he disciplines himself to run more accurate routes and relax and just catch the football he is going to be a defensive nightmare. He over concentrates which makes you panic he needs to just catch the football and worry about the other stuff afterwards.
If you focus so hard as to say to yourself “I can’t drop this ball” you are puttimg way too much pressure on yourself. Just relax and catch it if you drop it the world wont end. Just focus on making plays the actual catch should be second nature. I watched the film on this kid and he made some great catch’s look easy. But he was confident right now he’;s trying to prove people wrong and he should forget that and just play football. Proving them wrong will take care of itself. Just relax and play………….period

Agreed. WWII was in full swing prior to the US entering Militarily.
Recall the Lend Lease Act?
WWII enabled the USA to emerge as the pre emminant world power.
It was achieved by means of our ablity, brains, and most importantly, resources.
The aftermath of the pre emminance and how our “leaders” have handled it are IMO less than noble.
We as a Country can be so much better.

Russell reported at 275 last year now tell me if he can discipline himself enough to lose 35pounds in maybe 6 weeks why would he not discipline himself enough not to gain it?
Losing 35 pounds is much harder than not gaining them. They will never stop until he retires and I mean he could win 2 SB’s and they’ll still criticise that kid because they hate him………..period
So it doesn’t matter that he gained 400 lbs. it only matters if he wins.

The Man HAS ability. But…He needs to demonstrate that He is a leader, and a worker.
This is and has always been part of the role of the quarterback.
I want to see the Raiders provide some protection on the O Line, and at least some semblence of a WR group that will run routes on time and actually catch the ball.
I’m fully in the corner of Jamarcus. I want Him to succeed.
If the Kid can get it together, we as fans will have years of great football in front of us.
Jamarcus has to demonstrate in all ways possible that he is dedicated to being the best he can be.
Quarterbacks are publicly held to a higher standard.
Jamarcus needs to acknowledge this and run with it.

His playing weight is 260-5 he came in at 275 and they fined him. At 250- he would be at optimum condition. But it’s not required to play his game and be at his best. Russell at 260 is about where he should try to stay.

Plus the US was one of the few places that wasn’t bombed back to the stone age after WWII. That had a lot to do with the faster recovery.

DO YOU EVEN FOLLOW THE GAME?
geez..ok…DUMBASS..pay attention.
The “revenues” you’re mentioning? THAT’S NOT FOR TICKET SALES, moron.
The equal sharing revenues apply to TV REVENUE, IDIOT.
Yeah..all the revenue from the tv deals get’s split evenly between all teams.
As well, MORON, all of the money taken in from all NFL merchandise that is sold is equally divided.
TICKET SALES ARE NOT, FOOL.
And no, it’s not even..60% to the home team. 40% to the visiting team. Home team keeps all luxury suite $, as well, obviously, of any other events scheduled.
What’s funny is you, in a desperate attempt to keep up, keeps posting, THEN THINKING, lol..which gives everyone tons of fodder to pour in as salt in that festering wound called a brain.
How damn stupid do you feel NOW for the following: “In the NFL All money, all, every dime, goes into a pot, and is divided equally!!”
Yes, again…still…LMFAO at you..DUMBASS (thanks for the setup, BTW.)

no Grad is NOT a franchise qb..no one said he was.
All that has been said is he is, in almost EVERY category, a better qb than JaMultipleButtCheeks.
that’s a fact.
REFUTE IT, IF YOU CARE TO.
Has better touch on the ball…FACT.
has better pocket awareness…FACT.
has better footwork….FACT.
fumbles less…..FACT.
Knowledge of playbook? lol…do we need to go there?
Average yds per game? 143 for Grad..107 for JR..
TD/Int Grad 6/3 JR 3/11
QB Rating? Grad 80.6 JR 50.0
Sacked? Grad 1 out every 13 passes JR 1 out of 7 passes
Leadership ability? No contest…JR couldn’t lead a cub scout pack.
Respect from players? Players are very careful to NOT throw teammates under the bus (JR being the exception) so while many have NO COMMENT when asked about JR, MANY gladly state they appreciate what Grad brings…AS COMPARED TO JR.
Sure, some have the politically correct ‘We still have faith in JR’ when DIRECTLY ASKED, knowing full well that Al/coaches/players are reading what they’re saying.
But WHAT DOES JR DO BETTER THAN GRAD? Going to point to a COUPLE of deep balls that just happen to fall in?? A COUPLE/FEW IN A WHOLE SEASON? (conveniently forgetting the dozens of deep balls that weren’t even close).
Only a fool would state “With a better Oline, more talented receivers, JR wins hands down over Grad”…
Hell, some of JR balls were so badly thrown, even the announcers AND the players weren’t sure who he was throwing to.
Grad might not be the franchise qb. Might not be the “future”.
What he is is an improvement, in EVERY category, over Russell.
Works for me.

Because he hasn’t earned it.

There are some sad individuals that post comments on this blog. Luckily, there seems to be a lot of non-trolls who can help me find the best place for someone in San Jose to go watch Raiders games this year, besides my living room or streaming online when need be.
Aren’t there any Raider hangouts around here? I know Ricky’s in San Leandro but that’s it. Crap, I even found a Browns meeting spot at a “British” Pub in downtown SJ, but can’t seem to find a good Raiders bar anywhere in the 408. Any help?

———————————————
Hey dumfuk, I already told you, Russell was not going to play in his rookie season anyway. The Whiners DESPERATELY needed Craptree to start. Problem was Craptree wanted $100mm when he was worth $20mm. So, Craptree is going back into the draft in 2010. Think I’m kidding?? the Whiners drafted Alex Smith Number One Overall didn’t they?? And he is going to be cut in two weeks! Whiners have NO HOPE!

RICHOCHET: Wrong, crossposting tool. Bey did squat in college.
=================================================
Let’s actually check the facts:
DHB in College:
One of the nation’s most explosive receivers during his three-year career … has good size and blazing speed … earned freshman All-America honors in 2006 and honorable mention All-America accolades in 2007 … a two-time All-ACC performer … two-time member (2007-08) of the Biletnikoff Award watch list … ranks second in school history in career receiving yards (2,089), third in receptions (138), tied for third in TD catches (13) and tied for sixth in 100-yard receiving games (4) … also 17th in Maryland history in career all-purpose yards (2,403) despite never returning a punt or kickoff … caught at least one pass in 34 of his last 37 career contests … posted 228 receiving yards in his three bowl-game appearances … one of the fastest players in the ACC … his 40 time of 4.23 in 2006 set the school record among WRs … surrendered his final year of eligibility to enter the 2009 NFL Draft … invited to the 2009 NFL Combine.
============================================
The guy was Freshman All American and 2 time All ACC but wacky says DHB did squat in college. The coaches voted him twice All ACC. But hey what these ACC coaches know? Well, Frank Beamer has been to 17 straight Bowl Games and is the 2nd winningest coach behind Joe Paterno. Bobbby Bowden won 12 ACC championships. But hey, what would Bobby know about the ACC? Butch Davis is 44-22 in the ACC. Frank Spaziani has coached in 11 Bowl Games for Boston College. And Randy Shannon? Well, he had a defense ranked in the top 10 in the nation for 7 straight years. What would he know? All these guys must have wacky on speed dial to get his opinion of incoming freshmen prospects. You know Wacky, maybe you could take up a knitting class or something. Football is just NOT your thing.

As a direct result, this website will shut down for that period of time.
Okay, I made up the second part, but the legislation is true.
Read that bloggers?

There are some sad individuals that post comments on this blog. Luckily, there seems to be a lot of non-trolls who can help me find the best place for someone in San Jose to go watch Raiders games this year, besides my living room or streaming online when need be.
Aren’t there any Raider hangouts around here? I know Ricky’s in San Leandro but that’s it. Crap, I even found a Browns meeting spot at a “British” Pub in downtown SJ, but can’t seem to find a good Raiders bar anywhere in the 408. Any help?
***********************************************
Dokie….The 408RAIDER of course lives in the 408 so watch 4 him an he will let you knoq.Plus he’s an ALL-AROUND GREAT GUY and FF KING!!!!

Actually, at the end of the 30’s FDR’s treasury secretary said, “we’ve spent more than anyone has ever spent before; it doesn’t work”. FDR turned what should been a hard 2 or 3 year correction into a 10 year debacle culminating in world war. Great job

You know, this thread is so full of acrimonious rhetoric, that I find myself scrolling through so much…. I want to talk football. It gets political, well, ok. I will scroll. I keep seeing someone shouting, very antagonistic personal stuff, I scroll.scroll scroll. You can’t escape Richochet. He has ruined this blog. I’m going to have a good day, and a wonderful evening. Dollars to donuts he won’t. He must have no life. He’s always here, calling people names, being hostile. LMAO
February 26th, 2010 at 5:00 am
Well Souldogdave….the pundits have us taking a DE.I think they are wrong as we are pretty much set a DE,imo
February 26th, 2010 at 5:04 am
If Bush or Dmac dont step it up,we get thin real quick at RB,imo.This Gearhardt or Matthews at 3a is a possibility and I think that would be a good move if they’re available
February 26th, 2010 at 5:14 am
RB,imo….is the 1 offensive position that can shine in their 1st year.But because both Bush and Dmac have been injured, they are still unproven.BUT this is the year,injury or no,1 or both of them must step up. Fargas is gonna retire a Raider,as he should.Cant say enough about him,all the adversity and change this team has been through.Has been a TRUE professional and played the hand he was dealt gracefully.I hope because the way he has handled himself that the O-line stays healthy and Hue Jackson can utilize him and all our RB’s to their fullest extent so our 3 above average RB’s ALL have a break-out year

Rather rain than snow though!
February 26th, 2010 at 6:10 am
Frank Hawkins ? Another good one.I’ll have to go over to “where are they now” on the Raiders site.
Back in the old days I used to listen to games on the Armed Services Network.I remember a game against Dallas where Plunkett replaced Marc Wilson and threw a wiining TD to Dokie over 2 defenders.

HEY ROCKSTAR,ANY BIG MOVES B4 THE DRAFT U C COMMING ?
February 26th, 2010 at 6:18 am
Drew Brees has lobbied to get Tomlinson in New Orleans
all of a sudden Reggie Bush is rumored on the trade block and Mike Bell wasn’t tendered a qualifying offer as a restricted free agent
Hmmmm…
Pierre Thomas & LT 1-2 punch ???
February 26th, 2010 at 6:21 am
Rockstar…
Gotta ask the question then….what’s wrong with him? Injury prone? too expensive or too old?
February 26th, 2010 at 6:21 am
Sure that would be great if lady went to N.O. With him on the team the Saints wont repeat lol
February 26th, 2010 at 6:22 am
ANY BIG MOVES B4 THE DRAFT U C COMMING ?
***
Dirt Lot: there are plenty big moves I’d like to see the Raiders make prior to the draft, I don’t feel confident enough in Davis/Cable’s ability to identify weaknesses on the team and take steps toward correcting them.
whats your take?
the combine is already happening and free agency starts next friday!
February 26th, 2010 at 6:27 am
I THINK REGGIE BUSH IS DUE SOMETHING LIKE 8 MILL THIS YR..
February 26th, 2010 at 6:44 am
I don’t think the Raiders will go after any big names in free agency like Peppers, Dansby or Robinson.
Probably not even guys like Mawae, Owens or Bodden.
February 26th, 2010 at 6:48 am
I dunno Rockstar,Big Al saw in pre-season the D-line wasnt good enough and went out and got Ellis and Seymour….hope he can see the LB’s aren’t either.We sure could use a experienced smart LB as Dansby
February 26th, 2010 at 6:48 am
Many Raider & Russell fans aren’t sold on Bruce, Charlie & JP if we build him a better supporting cast and he still flops …
What if we replaced these 3 with David Carr, Jon Kitna & Chris Redman in free agency?
would that be considered upgrade, downgrade or about even?
February 26th, 2010 at 6:49 am
4eva: Dansby will probably end up in Miami and get at least $30 million guaranteed imo
February 26th, 2010 at 6:50 am
With Shaunessy Bryant and Richardson being young they will be ale to grow together.The time is now to ad a young DT to go along with Bryant,imo
February 26th, 2010 at 6:50 am
Yeah you prolly right Rockstar,and hes worth it ,imo
February 26th, 2010 at 6:51 am
Rockstar…
We don’t need big names we just need players who will produce from day one.That’s why I’d rather see us look for a veteran RT and RG and use our #1 pick on a stud DT or middle LB.
February 26th, 2010 at 6:54 am
Yeah Rockstar LOL
February 26th, 2010 at 6:54 am
Desmond Bryant is similar to Seymour & Kelly in terms of size & strength. all could be base ends or UT’s
Warren = UT, not NT.
we need a REAL NT. I’m tired of just throwing guys like Warren, Sands, Boschetti, Joseph & Wakefield in there and watching them fail play after play
A D-Line without an anchor is a D-Line that can’t stop the run imo
February 26th, 2010 at 7:00 am
A D-Line without an anchor is a D-Line that can’t stop the run imo
EXACTLY!!!!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:01 am
Gotta ask the question then….what’s wrong with him? Injury prone? too expensive or too old?
***
Neil: I did some digging on Jahri Evans and here’s what I found. not old or injury prone. 4th Round pick in 2006. started every game the past 4 years. 64 straight starts and he’s only 26 years old. made the Pro Bowl last year.
6′4″ 318 lbs out of Bloomsburg. Philly native
only 5 sacks allowed total in 4 years!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:03 am
I agree then Rockstar,let’s go get him!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:05 am
Y’all might think I’m crazy but…….
what ’bout Nnamdi and our first pick for the Rams #1 and then drafting Suh.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:06 am
and guess what?
Jahri Evans played RIGHT GUARD in New Orleans.
Gallery & Evans on the same O-Line would be awesome, especially if we brought in Casey Wiegmann at center and Mike Goff for depth at guard (in case Gallery’s back injury is worse than expected)
OT: Mario Henderson, Chester Pitts, Tra Thomas, Rookie
OG: Robert Gallery, Jahri Evans, Langston Walker, Mike Goff
C: Casey Wiegmann, Samson Satele
February 26th, 2010 at 7:06 am
no
February 26th, 2010 at 7:07 am
not even a little bit?
February 26th, 2010 at 7:09 am
what ’bout Nnamdi and our first pick for the Rams #1 and then drafting Suh.
***
I think the Rams would jump all over that because they could still draft a QB at #8 for a lot less money and they get a shutdown corner out of the deal …
if the Raiders trade N21 you know they’d draft CB’s in Rounds 2 and 3 though. or they might even ship Mike Bush to Sandy Eggo for Cromartie
February 26th, 2010 at 7:11 am
If the Rams put one of their starting CB’s in the trade would that make it better ?
February 26th, 2010 at 7:12 am
OK…issues this morning that I have to take care of…you all have a great weekend!!!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:12 am
LMAO Neilb!….But thats like giving the widdle wams 2 1st round picks.They have GROOMED Nnamdi and he is living proof of Big Als system.Wow every CB gets beat in this league,but Nnamdi gets beat the least.And I think he plays the run very well and physical.
I would be happy 2 stay at 8 or trade down
February 26th, 2010 at 7:12 am
It doesn’t make sense that we keep putting on the EXCLUSIVE franchise tag. Noone’s going to want to pay Seymour top dollars and give up 2 first round picks, and by putting Exclusive we pay a lot more.
It seems like we try our hardest to overpay people.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:13 am
Gee….I dunno lol!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:14 am
If the Rams put one of their starting CB’s in the trade would that make it better ?
***
Neil: I think that would actually make it worse!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:17 am
Just thinking out loud!!
Nnamdi’s one of the best,but so what ? Why throw the ball if you can run it all day?
February 26th, 2010 at 7:18 am
Big Al can tag Seymour for 1 year and pay him 13 million without blinking an eye.He’s waiting of course to see whats in store in the upcoming meetings
February 26th, 2010 at 7:19 am
what if the Raiders offered JaMarcus Russell to swap from #8 to #1 ?
Rams wouldn’t have to draft a QB (or so they think. lol) and they wouldn’t have to shell out the big bucks for a DT. They could draft McClain or Haden
February 26th, 2010 at 7:19 am
very true Neilb
February 26th, 2010 at 7:21 am
Nnamdi’s one of the best,but so what ? Why throw the ball if you can run it all day?
***
teams can also throw the ball AT WILL against us. Nnamdi alone doesn’t make us a #1 pass defense automatically. Often times he’s not even asked to shadow the other teams #1 WR
great player? absolutely.
worth $15-25 million per season with an awful run defense? not in my opinion
February 26th, 2010 at 7:23 am
but Neilb you cant build a team by trading a player like a CB for a DT .For one the CB,Nnamdi in this case,has his spot nailed down.1 position down,10 to go.You cant get rid of a nailed down position,imo.Thats the same argument for continuity at Head Coach….Big Al finally understands this and for better of worse Tom Cable is the coach when Big Al finally figured it out.

February 26th, 2010 at 7:26 am
Good point ’bout the other teams #1 WR Rockstar.
I just think something drastic has to be done about the run D.If anyone can think of an answer – I’m all ears.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:28 am
I want to see the Raiders become a PHYSICAL football team, not a finesse team.
that means beef up the friggin d-line and dominante in the trenches.
I’m tired of building from the outside-in. That philosophy has cost us many wins, many players and many coaches … and it’s probably cost Al many millions, but he’s too set in his ways to do anything about it
Can you imagine what a player like Nnamdi would look like in the Vikings, Steelers or Ravens secondary? scary
February 26th, 2010 at 7:28 am
Draft Lamarr Houston DT Texas
Brian Price DT UCLA
I think that would be the best way 2 go,but whatever
February 26th, 2010 at 7:31 am
Morning 408….There joy is soo great because they FINALLY won one.Let em have their fun….Our turn next you know!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:32 am
I take your point 4eva but I’ll say again….something drastic has to be done.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:33 am
4eva: I don’t think Dan Williams or Brian Price will slip to the spot we’re in to draft in Round 2 …
what is it? 40th overall again?
NT’s are getting snapped up like crazy because they’re so important.
Houston might be there and if we take him i’d be happy with that selection.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:35 am
4eva it was all cool till they started shouting ufck usa… Ima slap a hoser..
February 26th, 2010 at 7:38 am
If Suh is as good as every report I’ve read about him says,then wouldn’t he improve both pass and run D ?
February 26th, 2010 at 7:38 am
Rockstar….yes Al’s theory of outside in has cost the organization.But…it seems to me that if we were 2 use ALL picks 4 on O and 4 on D plus F/A thats way more than enough to more than right the ship,imo.We already have the Thoroughbreds LET THEM RUN
February 26th, 2010 at 7:39 am
408….
what else they got to shout about?
February 26th, 2010 at 7:41 am
4 eva,
Pray tell fine sir, who would be the “thouroughbreds” you speak of???
February 26th, 2010 at 7:42 am
I know he’s not popular in the Nations eye but DHB is gonns blow it up….There is no one like him in the nfl…Someone compared him to Willie Gault.Speed wise yes but this kid is humble and will work hard to be the best.It look like it killed him to be “injured” so that means hes a good kid that will work hard for pride.I dont see any home run threat like DHB and we got him!
February 26th, 2010 at 7:42 am
Oh I think I hear the viqueens calling you ron
February 26th, 2010 at 7:43 am
it seems to me that if we were 2 use ALL picks 4 on O and 4 on D plus F/A thats way more than enough to more than right the ship,imo.We already have the Thoroughbreds LET THEM RUN
***
Very True. It can be done, but what will it take?
DT & OT should be the first 2 picks, but you know Al is probably thinking about WR’s & CB’s …
February 26th, 2010 at 7:47 am
4eva: I’m still a Heyward-Bey supporter as well
very raw talent with a lot to work on. It wasn’t his fault Al drafted him so high and now he’s compared to all the guys who were proven and more NFL ready. makes him look like a huge bust
he dropped 6 passes and certainly needs to work on more than just catching the football, but the kid will improve. I think Hue Jackson will help his development. Maybe some more input from Ted Tollner.
I think we need a new WR Coach and a vet mentor.
Sanjay & Javon need to go ASAP imo
February 26th, 2010 at 7:48 am
be back later. gotta run to the other building
February 26th, 2010 at 7:48 am
4 eva,
Either you are joking about DHB or you didnt see him play last year. DHB did NOTHING to warrant a rediculous take like you just wrote. For your sake I hope your joking.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:50 am
What if we replaced these 3 with David Carr, Jon Kitna & Chris Redman in free agency?
would that be considered upgrade, downgrade or about even?
——————————————————-
No thanks, I’ll keep the guys we have.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:51 am
I guess you could of mistaken him for Harvin or Maclin or Crabtree or Nicks or any of the other rookie WRs that made impacts on their club.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:54 am
Thats true RRS….Its not his fault where he was drafted,but I we fully understand why Al did it….
The problem with the me or instant gratification generation,whoever they are,dont understand these things take time.I dont think a rookie WR has ever led in any stats.
DHB gets at least 2 more years just to get it and then he could be worked into the starting line-up.But something tells me it wont take him that long
February 26th, 2010 at 7:54 am
Way to go out on a limb 4eva!
DHB has a chance to be exactly what you say. I think Jackson’s biggest priorities should be DHB and Darren McFadden. These guys in space with their hands on the ball are clear threats.
Jackson needs to dial it WAY down for DHB and give him some quick slants, ins, and basically shorter patterns that will allow RAC scenarios. Instead of just clearing out other routes with nothing but 15 yd plus patterns.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:55 am
You’re on the wrong board ron
February 26th, 2010 at 7:58 am
4eva,
Funny how a bunch of rook WRs stepped in a contributed immediately. You obviously didnt watch the kid play cause if you did you could see a guy who is nowhere near contributing at a NFL level. Cant catch, runs garbage routes, and his 4.2 speed on the track flat out doesnt translate on the field. He ran away from no one last year.
February 26th, 2010 at 7:59 am
NFL Paradigm shift…. “Trench Players” have superior value than “Skill Players”….
Look at the trends……
Mr. Davis building teams from the outside proves football has gone waaaayyyyy past him…..
Its all about the Trench PEIROD…
Skill players = dime a doz, and short shelf life….
SB winners all have good trenches….
February 26th, 2010 at 8:01 am
Every year Raider fan says the same thing…..
” (Insert player here) COULD be great”
” (Insert coach herr) will make a HUGE difference”
” (Insert player here) is gonna BLOW UP!”
Unfortunately nonne of it ever happens.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:01 am
DHB should have been a T, DT, or LB…..
after the last 3 years of drafting for the trenchesm, then we could have gotten Dez Bryant, who in my opinion is better than crabtree whom Mr Davis passed on for reasons yet to be determined, or that make any sense….
February 26th, 2010 at 8:03 am
Mr. Davis <——– Horrible GM……
February 26th, 2010 at 8:05 am
I wil give DHB a break… He did have a fat lazy slob of a QB throwing to him so i will cut him some space.
DHb better light it up this year…
February 26th, 2010 at 8:06 am
Time to get something to eat.
Have a great Friday everyone and enjoy the weekend!
February 26th, 2010 at 8:07 am
well all I can say Thec is,obviously,Big Al thinks he is on to something.Since the Kiff bebacle Al has been more hands on with personel.The last 3 drafts are very good,imo.Like I said with our 8 picks and F/A we could very well go all linemen…..On offense we may be thin at RB if Bush or Dmac dont step up,so I could see us drafting a RB also.But this grand experiment of Big Al’s needs to show a marked improvment this year,imo
February 26th, 2010 at 8:08 am
U 2 Neilb!
February 26th, 2010 at 8:10 am
Where do you morons come from?? LOL! “Al has been more hands on in personell” WTF? Cause before Kiff came to town ol Al just sat back and watched. LOL. “The last 3 drafts have been very good” Yep, superstars EVERYWHERE!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!

I would hope a Raider fan such as yourself would at least have some clue about what theyre talking about. Even good ol Raider O isnt as clueless as you. Your posts are based on wishful thinking and nothing more. You have no sound reasoning for anything you have said thus far. Period.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:21 am
NFLN guys just made the case for the LT.
Is Mario Henderson really out LT, or do we need to draft one with the #8 pick? LT is the only position we can use the #8 pick for on the Oline.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:22 am

February 26th, 2010 at 8:27 am
4 eva is gone now anyways, he got taken to the wood shed and wont be back for a while.
408,
Does this club need a C?? 4 sho. Should it take one at number 8? Helllllllllllllll no. You just dont draft centers that early.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:30 am

*************************
Not a first round pick on the O-line of the Super Bowl winning team in how many years?
Saints-NO
Steelers-No (And O-line was their weakest unit)
Giants- NO
Colts-NO
Get the picture. All these teams win Super Bowls with 4th and 5th rounds picks at LT, and some undrafted guys at Guard.
Are they good O-lines, absolutely. But the belief that you can only build an O-line through top picks in the draft is not supported by Super Bowl winning teams.

DHB in September was awful at everything.
By November, he was an excellent run blocker, and I thought a decent route-runner.
It’s just that damn catching the ball thing
February 26th, 2010 at 8:37 am

Id take a C at 8. Pfft we need a C more than the DB Big Al will picK. It aint gonna happen so whatever I can still hope..

but Neilb you cant build a team by trading a player like a CB for a DT .For one the CB,Nnamdi in this case,has his spot nailed down.1 position down,10 to go.You cant get rid of a nailed down position,imo.Thats the same argument for continuity at Head Coach….Big Al finally understands this and for better of worse Tom Cable is the coach when Big Al finally figured it out.

Still waiting for an answer to the Viking and hat question. I will wait.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:53 am
Vegas, Pouncey is climbing the boards and will go in the first. If we don’t take McClain at No8, our best option in the 2nd could be Brandon Spikes. We need a MLB and he will be available. If we don’t take an OT like Davis, Campbell or Bulaga in the first, we might still have the choice of Jared Veldheer or Rodger Saffold. Or one of the decent CBs that will still be around.
February 26th, 2010 at 8:55 am
Please no Campbell.
PLEASSSEEEE!!!!!!!!!
That guys has bust written all over him
February 26th, 2010 at 8:59 am
Run D has to be the pick with the 1st rounder.
McClain, Spikes, Dan Williams or Brian Price
That is my short list
February 26th, 2010 at 9:03 am
Anything new other than the Raiders being fukin retarded?
Why use the exclusive tag on Seymour? Why not let him shop his services, and if he signs a deal that we like we match, if we don’t like it we take that teams TWO FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICKS!
WTF?
I swear to god Al is brain dead these days.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:03 am
If we want to improve the run defense, the first step has to be trading DMAC.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:09 am
Dakota,
I think it is a moot point, why would anyone give up two #1’s for Seymour, one year after he could have been had for one #1?
But still, the positioning of it, is pretty stupid.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:18 am
Bottom line gentlemen. Al Davis no longer has the ability to identify the weak spots of this club and do the things neccesary to strengthen them. Period. Al Davis can not draft.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:18 am
Al is probably gonna do something stupid like draft Carlos Dunlap and then let Seymour walk next year …
February 26th, 2010 at 9:19 am
Al Davis can not draft.

He can draft. He just can’t draft well!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:20 am
I’m wondering what positions we’ve drafted the past few years that weren’t a need?
February 26th, 2010 at 9:20 am
I’d take Dunlap in the 2nd.
Talent-wise, he may be in the top 5 out of everybody in the whole draft.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:20 am
# 4evaRaider Says:
February 26th, 2010 at 7:54 am
Thats true RRS….Its not his fault where he was drafted,but I we fully understand why Al did it….
The problem with the me or instant gratification generation,whoever they are,dont understand these things take time.I dont think a rookie WR has ever led in any stats.
DHB gets at least 2 more years just to get it and then he could be worked into the starting line-up.But something tells me it wont take him that long
————————————————
Our WR DID lead in receptions….only the one drafted in the 4th round. And as far as gratification, look at EVERY OTHER first round WR picked and the instant gratification. All made big impacts while DHB actually made us worse (as proven by when he was out of the line-up WRs immediately the other WRS made more plays getting more playing time)
February 26th, 2010 at 9:24 am
Percy Harvin 60 receptions
Jeremy Maclin 56 receptions
Michael Crabtree 48 receptions (in playing in less games than DHB)
Hakeem Nicks 47 Receptions
DHB 9 Receptions.
Now, compare. I know you got to give people time to develop, but over the SAME time period here’s how much the other 1st rd rookie WRs developed compared to our 1st rd pick.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:25 am
QB and WR were needs. RB was not. All 3 were the wrong guy. Never should have drafted any of them without first strenghtening both interiors. Simple as that.

Doesn’t matter who or what you already have, you get the best player.
The Panthers already had Deangelo Williams, and than they drafted Jonathan Stewart, for example.

————————————
Drafting McFadden when we had Bush and Fargas. That wasn’t need. Drafting DHB – maybe it was a position of need, but not our biggest need. At the time we had 2 WRs that were rookies coming on strong at the end of the year and Walker who was recovered finally. Now he just got bench time and the other WRs (especially Jonny Lee Higgins) lost playing time so DHB could be in there and do nothing.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:28 am
Dunlap will not fall to the 2nd. I used to think he will due to off the field issues, but I think he is such a great talent that teams don’t care. Some team will draft him in the 1st. I think the Eagles will draft him.
He is 6′6, 280, Can add more weight, and he runs a 4.6!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:29 am
maverick:
the point we (or at least I) was making, is that Heyward-Bey is still a work in progress. Still developing. I’m not ready to call him a bust and part ways with him just because he got outplayed by our 4th Round rookie WR.
Murphy made the same mistakes DHB did. both dropped a ton of passes. I would even argue that #12 is a better route runner & blocker. The game will slow down for him in Year #2
February 26th, 2010 at 9:29 am
Last year was the first year I said WTF when Al made is first rd pick. But WR was clearly a need. None of those other guys could do the clear out things Cable’s offense called for.
I don’t think anyone could have imagined a first round prospect actually being so unproductive. Total disaster. Set himself up well for comebacl player of the year!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:30 am
DHB’s block in week 2 is what sprung Darren for the game-winning score.
I look forward to a few decleaters from DHB this year.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:31 am
So RRS,
You actually liked the DHB pick and think it will pan out for us?
February 26th, 2010 at 9:32 am
What a stupid, stupid, stupid comment. “None of the other guys could clear out”. Yep, lets draft a guy at 7 overall to be a clear out guy. Idiot.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:32 am
Dunlap takes a lot of plays off and has questionable passion for the game. We have enough players like that on the roster already imo
give me Derrick Morgan or let Matt Shaughnessy have more playing time!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:32 am
Jason Smith and Andre Smith were just as unproductive, if not more so, than DHB last year.
And they were taken ahead of him.
The top 10 is full of busts every year these days and I have no idea why.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:34 am
We should always draft the best available players, and not based on need. DMV was a good pick, but DHB was a reach. DMV was the best available talent that year.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:35 am
I still like the DHB pick. He fits where the organization is going. They are starting to take people who want to be here and who are hard workers. DHB will continue to strive to be better. We knew he was a bit of a project when we took him. (hint: we always take projects) I bet in a year or 2 he will pan out as good as Nnamdi did.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:37 am
9 catches in 11 starts is a joke!!
We need a WRs coach ASAP!!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:39 am

ask anybody in here. you should remember. I think you were calling for a MLB even back then. Rey Malalala
I was lobbying hard for Michael Crabtree …
obviously I felt that WR was a big need too. I never would have guessed that Eugene Monroe would have dropped to us and we’d pass on him though!
I gave S&B Defense a bad time for wanting BJ Raji, but I would have taken Raji over DHB 10 times out of 10
Heyward-Bey wouldn’t have even been my 2nd round pick
Do I think he’ll pan out? tough question. The jury is still out imo. Thats all i’m saying. I’m not expecting him to tear it up this year, but I expect to see a guy who has improved from last year and does his job. not just a fast guy with stone hands
February 26th, 2010 at 9:43 am
I like DHB, and I think he will be a solid NFL WR. I don’t like Al’s method if reaching for players he likes.
-DHB was rated as the 6th WR that year behing Crab, Maclin, PH, H Nicks, and K Britt.
- We could have drafted MM in the 3rd.
- Matt S had a lot of injuries at college, and we could have drafted him in the 4th.
- Norris was a reach too. He wasn’t even rated.
The only 2 players we didn’t reach for were L Murphy & the TE!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:46 am
Almost every rookie improves in their second year (see Jamarcus), than the NFL adapts and you have to adapt from there and thus the chess games begin.
I see 5 TD’s from DHB next year.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:47 am
Those of you looking at DHB’s stats, I think your forgetting JR was starting at QB for half the season…
February 26th, 2010 at 9:47 am
Like*
behind*
February 26th, 2010 at 9:47 am
O: I think Matt Shaughnessy, Louis Murphy & Brandon Myers will all be fine players for the Raidahs
DHB & Mitchell have a lot of potential & upside, but most high draft picks do and many times those young guys never reach their full potential in Oakland (if at all)
Norris & Sulak were terrible picks.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:50 am
And why the heck did we not keep Frantz Joseph?
February 26th, 2010 at 9:51 am
I think it benefits MM to be around guys like Nnamdi, CJ, Huff & Branch. Even Lionel Washington
Who does DHB have?
Walker was in the doghouse. Schilens was hurt. Higgins was shell-shocked. Murphy & Miller were fellow rookies. Watkins is a scrub with his 3rd team in 3 years.
February 26th, 2010 at 9:52 am
Yeah, I wanted that drunk Maulauga …
I agree with you on DHB. Jury is still out and the upside is huge. We need to use him way differently though. I don’t think the Willie Gault thing is going to work out for him. He needs to be put in a position to get YAC!
February 26th, 2010 at 9:53 am

I have no problem with Langston Walker at RG. I’m going to go ahead and put my stake in the ground and say he should be our starting RG next year moving Carlisle to a backup role.
Satele was the 2nd rated C coming out of college behind Khalil. He HAS to be better next year, but I’ totally on board with bringing in Mawae!
I have no problem with Pears, Barnes, and Green as backups.

It must be fun being a Raider beat writer. Having to sit there everyday and pretend you’re covering a real NFL football team with an actual chance to compete, breaking down positions, trying to appease fans that are so delusional they make Jim Jones’ punch drinkers look like cynics. You probably have enough to do an expose on Al Davis and other partners that would just topple what’s left of his crumbling empire, but the words “Bob Padeky” scare you out of doing it. Well, at least you’re getting paid, Jerry. These fans who still believe and sit in here and break the team down by position? Yikes.

Big Al’s decision to make Seymour an “exclusive” franchise player is the latest sign of how delusional he is.
As if another team would have been willing to trade 2 first-round picks for him. Not a chance of that. Seymour is a good, but from-from-great player at this point.
In fact, getting 2 first-round picks for Seymour would be a dream for the Raiders. But Big Al wanted to make sure it couldn’t happen.
The next step is for Big Al to way overpay Seymour for his 4 lousy sacks.

Big Al should at least try to sign Seymour before Peppers signs somewhere and the asking price for DE soars. But I doubt the old man will figure it out.
It would have made much more sense to keep our 2011 first-round pick and sign Peppers now. He has much more left than Seymour (which is why the Pats were willing to trade him).
Not having that pick next year will hurt big-time.

And Davis didn’t need to use the exclusive tag. Like any other team would have signed Seymour to the huge contract that his agent will demand AND be willing to fork over two 1st rounders. Davis is such a paranoid dude.

Marshall or Jackson?
You think those guys will hit the open market?
February 26th, 2010 at 10:39 am
I won’t call DHB a bust, but somehow he’s got to improve on his catching. He wasn’t even open all that much and when he was dropped as much as he caught. I think having a QB with touch like Grads throwing to him will help too as I saw a ton of other WRs drop Russell thrown balls also
February 26th, 2010 at 10:40 am

they haven’t been tendered yet. as of now they’ll become unrestricted on friday, March 5th
February 26th, 2010 at 10:43 am
RFA’s can negotiate with any club through a certain date. If the restricted free agent accepts an offer sheet from a new club, his old club has “right of first refusal,” a seven-day period in which it may match the offer and retain him, or choose not to match the offer, in which case it may receive one or more draft picks for the upcoming draft from the player’s new club. If an offer sheet is not executed, the player’s rights revert to his old club the day after negotiations must end.
February 26th, 2010 at 10:45 am
They will be tendered, don’t worry. It’d be foolish for their teams not to tender them. Relatively cheap to do so.
February 26th, 2010 at 10:45 am
Examples of possible outcomes ***
In addition to the following outcomes, if a player does not receive an offer sheet from his original team, he becomes an unrestricted free agent. If a player signs the offer sheet from his original team, he remains with that team.
Team declining to match offer sheet:
Carolina Panthers cornerback Ricky Manning, Jr. was a restricted free agent in the 2006 offseason. Based on the tender placed on Manning by the Panthers, the team would receive a third-round pick in the NFL Draft if Manning signed with another team. On April 21, the Chicago Bears signed Manning to an offer sheet – a five-year contract worth up to $23 million. Although the Panthers had a full week to decide if they wanted to match the offer sheet, they announced on April 24 that they would not match. At this time, Manning became a member of the Bears and the Panthers received a third-round draft choice in the 2006 draft from Chicago.
Team matching offer sheet:
Arizona Cardinals offensive guard Reggie Wells was a restricted free agent in the 2006 offseason. On March 17, the Buffalo Bills signed him to an offer sheet – a five-year deal worth approximately $18 million. Four days later on March 21, the Cardinals matched the Bills’ offer sheet for Wells, and he reverted to the Cardinals.
Team consummating a trade:
The Miami Dolphins offered wide receiver Wes Welker a second-round tender in 2007. Although it was widely rumored that the New England Patriots would offer Welker a seven-year, $35 million deal, the Patriots ultimately traded their second- and seventh-round draft picks to the Dolphins for Welker, signing Welker to a five-year, $18 million contract.
February 26th, 2010 at 10:46 am
Maybe Al put the non-excluisve on scritcly because he wants to be the only horse in the race as far as negotiating a long-term deal with Dick.
If Richard wants a long-term deal prior to the pending lockout, Al is the market-maker.
February 26th, 2010 at 10:48 am

February 26th, 2010 at 11:11 am
Oh, so in your lil world picking guys who cant play constitutes “filling a need”. Ok, got it. Brandon Meyers?? LOL!!
February 26th, 2010 at 11:17 am
What bothers me about Morrison is the team had a great run stopper in Danny (Hammerhead) Clark when they drafted Morrison. Both Morrison and Clark had a great year during Morrison’s rookie season at Weak Outside Linebacker. So what do the Raiders do? They draft Thomas Howard, start him at Weakside, cut Clark and start Morrison at the middle. That didn’t make any sense at all.
They should have kept Morrison at Weak, Clark at Middle and they should have started Howard at the Strong Side since he was great in coverage and would always be positioned right over the TE but years later, they’re not happy with the run support by Morrison in the middle and they have since tried Howard on the Strong side. How do I know these things but the coaching staff doesn’t?
February 26th, 2010 at 11:19 am
Ronda,
What does filling a need mean in your humongus world?
I thought taking a position OF NEED in the draft was filling a need. Didn’t the coach talk about finding a TE to marry with Miller so we could run 2 TEs and get Miller out into the patterns?
I don’t know why you even try Ronda, lol! What silly question do you have next? How long before you alter ego Dude appears, lol!
February 26th, 2010 at 11:20 am

You know these things because you know more about the game and the players than the NFL coaches on the Raiders staff do. Simple as that, bud.

Filling a need with a guy who cant play is not filling a need, tough guy. Drafting a guy who CAN play at a position of need is how its supposed to be done. Al Davis just doesnt know how to identify these guys. But to a brainiac like yourself it appears he has done a great job at it as evidence in the fact that the Raiders are working on 8 10plus loss seasons in a row. Yep, the needs have been filled to perfection! LOL. Freakn moron.
February 26th, 2010 at 11:31 am

They tried to GIVE the MLB position to Ricky Brown last year. Clear sign that they are not happy with Kirk.
The question is simply is Mario Henderson the guy at LT. If not, I think we go best athlete on the board.
======================
No doubt. Morrison and MLB is an issue that MUST be addressed!!!
Henderson will be fine I think IF Gallery stays healthy.
Trent Williams on the right side would be a good start to rebuilding the line, but CENTER is the most important position in the ZBS and Satele is NOT the man.
Need a FB too.
Lot of needs in O town so Al will take the fastest heighth-weight-speed specimen he always does.
