Raiders not on same page, after all
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010 at 3:41 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Following the first day of practice the Raiders’ mandatory minicamp following the draft, I asked rookie third-round pick Jared Veldheer about the intensity of the “no contact” practices.
He laughed out loud.
“Well, it’s a lot of contact right now,” said Veldheer, who went on to talk about technique, pad level and how you don’t quite finish a block even if you fire out to start one.
He said, “Besides that, the run stuff is pretty full go.”
The following is the official offseason guidelines for the 14 workouts classified as OTAs:
– No pads except protective knee or elbow pads. Helmets are permitted.
– No live contact; no live contact drills between offensive and defensive linemen.
– A maximum six hours per day, with a maximum two hours on field for any player.
– 7-on-7, 9-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills will be permitted, providing no live contact takes place.
For the second time since 2007, the Raiders have apparently either exceeded the amount of contact deemed acceptable for the offseason or practiced too long. The joint statement by the NFL and NFLPA did not specify Oakland’s violation and the Raiders have had no comment. Oakland head coach Tom Cable was the offensive line coach the last time the Raiders lost OTA time.
Oakland joins the Baltimore Ravens as the second team to lose OTA sessions. Violations typically are reported through the union, with the NFL then requesting practice film with the offending team obliged to produce it.
So as happy as Cable has been with the offseason turnout and as much as he believes everyone on the same page, a player or three had to deviate from the script to get the ball rolling for punishment to be meted out.
The Raiders have been pushing the two-hour limit in most of their offseason practices open to the media but cut Wednesday’s short by comparison, starting at 9:30 a.m. and finishing a little after 11 a.m.

Nothing wrong with being in a select group with the Ravens.
June 9th, 2010 at 3:47 pm
way to be on top of it there
June 9th, 2010 at 3:49 pm
Why would anyone think the Raiders would be on the same page?
June 9th, 2010 at 3:51 pm
If your not cheating your not trying.
June 9th, 2010 at 3:54 pm
so where should the over under on houston for unsportsman like be this year 4?????
June 9th, 2010 at 3:56 pm
Pro Football Talk .com points out the no contact rule is often broken but rarely enforced. Either the Raiders have more crybabies playing for them or the league is focusing on them to have 2 violations in 3 years.
June 9th, 2010 at 3:58 pm
Beeecham and R8eray, vas te faire encule!
June 9th, 2010 at 3:58 pm
We should start practicing with the Ravens!
June 9th, 2010 at 3:59 pm
Darrius Heyward-Bey has reportedly out-practiced Louis Murphy throughout each of the Raiders’ last two OTAs.
Heyward-Bey “dusted” speedy rookie Walter McFadden on a 20+ yard end-zone strike from Jason Campbell Wednesday, and has mostly avoided drops. DHB isn’t on the fantasy radar, but is worth tracking for his big-play potential.

Nice to hear, but gameday is where I want to see it. Hopefully it does translate to gameday.

Fat kid take a break you must be out of breath breathing heavy all over my posts.
Its not very manly to try and talk like your a tough guy on the internet makes you look weak and pathetic.
June 9th, 2010 at 4:01 pm
I kinda like what I’m hearing about Houston. Seymour seems to have a nasty streak too.
Maybe they and McClain can create a new physical vibe for the Defense.
June 9th, 2010 at 4:02 pm
a GRACEFUL TAUNT….
June 9th, 2010 at 4:04 pm
Having guys that want to fight and get after people will be a welcome addition to the defense.
Our defensive captain and MLB was a fashion diva the last 6 years.

There you go, making excuses and placing blame on others, for that organization’s actions.

this rule is gay these guys get paid more than a doctor and the pres but cant practice to hard BS
June 9th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
2 violations in 3 years is not enough…1-2 violations in one year is the quota! We gotta do something different around here…get this team back to .500 football (at least)!
June 9th, 2010 at 4:09 pm

I dont believe the league is focusing more on a single team ore than others, and they need video proof to make their point, so I think its crybabies…
COW, good to see you back, im on another schedule these days so im not that often here late at night…
I really fear we used Schilens too early and forced him on field, I fear his legs will implode this season again… Hope im wrong..

I never hear people complain about the salaries of anybody, except athletes, particularly those of a certain class. “non-deserving” ones.
Yet you get your asz ripped from throat to crotch everyday by Corporate America, while you subsidize their massive profits with your tax-dollar. Suckers. Bait & Switch.

well they are entitled to 14 OTA days, and no team uses them all, so if you have a smart team you plan for 14 OTA days, in case you get penalized, then you have days to spare =) just in case it gets a bit too wild =)

jason campbell vs saints is the first game this weekend, then oak and pitt, followed by dallas and nyg. all three games raider fans should watch. the dallas game just to see if flojob adams still has much left i believe he’s still a free agent.

Contact is good. Aggression is better, violence directed at your opponent is best.
That’s what we need, more opponent brutality. It’s time that we start dominating the lines of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Dominating lines win games. Defense wins championships, Dominating offenses win Super Bowls. We appear to finally going in the right direction. It’s about damn time.

Schilens, who employed the polite strategy of “if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all” when asked about JaMarcus Russell for most of the past two years, had no problem identifying what he liked about new quarterback Jason Campbell.
“He’s smart, intelligent, throws a good ball,” Schilens said. “He works hard at learning the offense. I’m happy.”

Blabbing Veldheer’s comments about the level of contact at OTAs is a perfect example of why the Raiders don’t give the media the access they desperately want, and cry about when they don’t get.

June 9th, 2010 at 7:10 pm
My point is that we still don’t have crap at QB and that whoever plays best in preseason still shouldn’t just be given the keys for 16 games because all that all 4 of those QB’s have proven so far is that their teams will be no good if they start 16 games.
Not too hard right?
And I am biased to the one guy of the 4 who has actually won tough road games in the Silver and Black before. Sue me.

Totally disagree that we should have the bullpen ready, if you will. And I don’t see Campbell failing.
IMO, Mini Garcia is the 4th best QB talent on the roster. Maybe #3, but I’d take Frye and Campbell 1 and 2. Grads is too short and has a turnover rate similar to Russell’s. His throwing motion is terrible. Oline has to be too good for a guy like him to be back there.

the key to the raiders having a good season is sitting in a office!!!!!!!!!al davis baby
al cant take all the blame the game is played and won on the field some players are to blame as well for vacationing when they come to oakland instead of giving 100%
…………..
The reason why they slack is because they can. Al won’t let a coach crack the whip on them. Oh, Al will let a coach attack another coach. Worked wonders for us last year, didn’t it? (5-11). So, it’s still Al’s fault, period. Al is responsible for every single employee here. If Al only had a losing season every few years or so, I could see chalking it up to Al just making a few bad moves and still being able to right the ship. But 7 years? Al is garbage!

************************
Really? I most have missed when Jamarcus had twice as many TD’s as INT’s.
BTW, Frye 6′4 220, Boller 6′3 214, Bruce 6′2 220.
They are all the same fkn size.

Frye AND Boller are both not making the team, so your going to have to pick a side on that one.

J,
Here’s some film to review why I am down on Campbell.
Week 1 last year. Great stats, all of 3 points scored offensively until his garbage TD at the end of the game that he patented in Washington.
Not to mention a TD costing turnover.
