Howard gets second-round tender
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010 at 5:34 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Linebacker Thomas Howard received a second-round tender from the Raiders Thursday, beat writer Steve Corkran reports.
After making $535,000 last season, Howard is in line for a $1.759 million salary in 2010 should he remain with the Raiders. If Howard receives an offer from another team and the Raiders don’t match, they’d receive a second-round draft pick in return.
While Kirk Morrison’s original round tender would indicate the Raiders may be planning on a new middle linebacker, it would appear they’re open to Howard returning.
Had the Raiders given the original round tender to Howard, his salary would have been $1.176 million and they still would have received a second-round pick as compensation. Howard was a second-round pick in 2006.
With the second-round designation, it’s an extra $583,000 for Howard. Not sure how to interpret that other than wanting to give a fair market offer to a potential starter who they expect could remain with the team.

At least Howard is somewhat reasonable

Actually wack-o the more I talk about myself, the crazier you get. I might just keep going. I have had a very interesting life. But enough about me. How’s that internet trolling going?

Might be old news, but Raiders give Morrison original round tender.

Wack job how do you know I didn’t have a hit band at the age of 18? You know wack-o and koolkell, you guys are two of the most laughed at, sh** on, numbskulls in here. There really isn’t any reason to talk to you. You’re both losers.
==============================
LMFAO…damn…you’re easy.
Ok…just because I can…and it’s fun…I’m going to embarrass you more…
Uh..Oakdork? YOU stated you had a hit band at 18?
You earlier stated you graduated at 20 and formed a public corporation at 26, but NOW YOU HAD A HIT BAND AT 18???
Which is it?? What?? In all of your schtick..you just happen to “forgot to mention” that you HAD A HIT BAND AT 18?
Point to one lie, and stick to it, would ya?
Oh..wait..you already are running the “isn’t any reason to talk to you”?? lol…
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:45 pm
Let me see if I have it straight, Oakglen.
You graduated at 20?
had a company that went public at 26?
Bought a house at 19?
and..the answer to “how did you buy a house at 19, when you were a full time student?” your answer is “Because I was a rockstar when I was 18″?????
LMFAO…is that the current story?

I’m angry at Al Davis, sure. But not angry in general. I don’t stalk people here to insult them, like you people.

Brownstains wants his country back, I guess.

Shut up, sniveling fool.
You didn’t worry about me posting for the last year, until I slapped around your ignorant take, and torched your amateurish web page…now you’re crying.
KrazyKell: “OMG..they’re picking on me…WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY”???
That’s where you have it wrong, KeptMan..laughing at you, Oakdork, TJ is entertainment..and the price is right…IT’S FREE

OH..THAT’S RIGHT..YOU DON’T WORK.
Got cha…

It’s an interesting question. I don’t find them angry as much as I find them pathetic, deranged and useless. But of course if either of them had anything going on, they wouldn’t be lurking in the shadows to come out and hurl insults. That’s what fragile little nobodies do.

Disagree with Oakglenn and 10 Trolls immediately show up.
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:54 pm
The Gerard Warren watch is now on. Owed $1M roster bonus and the Raiders could also get out from under $10 million due to no salary cap.
Come on Al. Time for change. cut warren draft dan williams
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:54 pm
Kell, why is a 70 yr old man on a blog 18 hours a day calling other grown men names like brownstains and boob ?
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:55 pm
OakGlen, so your not even denying the new name anymore?
lol
Go ahead and give yourself another pat on the back..
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:55 pm
Oakglenn at least you’re a Raider Fan. You just get psycho if anybody has the temerity to disagree with you.
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:56 pm
The Raiders have no choice but to draft Williams. You can’t start Ricky Brown at MLB and expect him to do much under the best of circumstances. Its key they start getting better lineplay since Davis does not value linebackers

You’re full of crap.
Someone made a comment to me.
YOU jumped in with an insult.
Now you’re crying like a slapped on little girl that you get it back?
You’re one of those rare people who truly ARE as stupid as they look.
March 3rd, 2010 at 5:59 pm
Its a defense mechanism for a guy like Kell who gets pummeled in here 7 days a week to say we are angry.

Your whole life’s pleasure seems to be personal insults. I don’t see any interest in the Raiders at all in you.
You just come here to put down people.
