Raiders can’t lose in Henderson acquisition
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Friday, June 11th, 2010 at 11:24 am in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders, looking even thinner than usual on their interior defensive line this week with the “excused” absences of Tommy Kelly and William Joseph, bulked up considerably Friday with the free agent acquisition of defensive tackle John Henderson.
At 6-foot-7, 335 pounds, Henderson’s strength has been as a run defender _ a weak spot for the Raiders in recent years. In theory, Henderson, who reportedly signed a one-year contract according to beat writer Steve Corkran, would join an interior line rotation that would Kelly and Desmond Bryant. Others on the roster include Joseph, Chris Cooper, Ryan Boschetti and undrafted free agent Kellen Heard.
No confirmation as yet from the Raiders.
With the trade for Kamerion Wimbley, the selection of middle linebacker Rolando McClain and former defensive end Trevor Scott at weak side linebacker, Oakland on paper looks considerably more stout.
Assuming Henderson is being paid at or near the veteran minimum, there is no gamble inherent on taking a flyer on a two-time Pro Bowler who was the ninth overall pick of the 2002 draft out of Tennessee, where he was a teammate of Albert Haynesworth. Henderson was a Pro Bowler in 2004 and 2006, but his dedication was openly questioned by coach Jack Del Rio last year (the two later hashed out their differences in a meeting) and the Jaguars put almost no pressure on the quarterback with a league-low 14 sacks.
The Jaguars tried to trade Henderson before the draft, releasing him April 26, not long after taking Cal defensive tackle Tyson Alualu. He was scheduled to make approximately $5 million.
In talking to an NFL personnel-type a few weeks back about Henderson I was told flatly, “he can’t play anymore.”
Still, Henderson is 31 years old and doesn’t need to be a Pro Bowler to help the Raiders. If he can contribute 15 to 20 snaps on running downs and help keep blockers off McClain and Co., he’ll be well worth the signing.
If not, Henderson would be like other veteran acquisitions of recent years such as Donovin Darius and Lorenzo Neal. Worth a look, and gone before the regular season begins.

Our new DT:
“Henderson has a unique motivational ritual before games that involves a team trainer slapping him in the face.”

I don’t know…
Many of you won’t agree w/ me, but I think Coach Cable has had alot to do w/ this nice off season.
+++++++++++++
Lol, so Cable winning 5 games and then left out swinging in the wind for the first several months of the offseason by Al Davis and then being emasculated and busted down to Assistant O-line coach/Timeout Coordinator and the fact that nothing like this happened last year when Cable was here makes you believe that?

do you see the last line on the pft article, still talking mess about the raiders, saying we still will suck in run d, we have to prove it or they will continue to say this
Raiders sign former Jaguar John Henderson
Posted by Evan Silva on June 11, 2010 1:33 PM ET
All has been quiet on the John Henderson front since he didn’t visit the Chiefs just after April’s draft, but the free agent defensive tackle has finally found a new home.
Notorious collectors of former first-round picks, the Raiders have agreed to terms with Henderson — the No. 9 overall selection in 2002 — on a one-year contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Behind perhaps only O.J. Atogwe, Henderson is the premier defender on the free agent market. Henderson, 31, has lost much of his pass-rush ability, but remains a quality run stopper. He is also capable of playing both defensive end in a 3-4 defense and tackle in a 4-3. The Raiders have hinted that they will be using more 3-4 fronts by trading for outside linebackers Kamerion Wimbley and Quentin Groves, and drafting Nick Saban disciple Rolando McClain with the eighth overall pick.
At 6-foot-7 and 335 pounds, Henderson gives the Raiders an imposing bookend for 6-foot-6, 310-pounder Richard Seymour.
The Raiders, though, will probably still find a way to again rank among the NFL’s worst run defenses.

Raider teammates are stoked about adding a starter quality nose tackle too, I see…
June 11th, 2010 at 11:34 am
Nice…I wanted this since day 1….like Jerry says, potential big payout for very minimal risk. Good move, guys.
Depth on the D-line is looking good….I like the idea of Shaugnessy, Seymour, Kelly, and Houston, but now Seymour can play more defensive end with the acquisition of Hendo.
I like the move.
June 11th, 2010 at 11:35 am
Looks like we are about set to run a 3/4

Henderson cancelled his visit with KC because they wanted to make him a 3-4 NT. I doubt he’d sign with us for the minimum to do just that!
he’s been a 4-3 NT his entire career
June 11th, 2010 at 11:37 am
finally!

June 11th, 2010 at 11:39 am
I don’t think this means we are going to a 3-4…he is a DT in a 4-3…he was hesitant to play NT in KC’s 3-4, so I doubt he wopuld be willing to do so here.
Plus our coach is a 4-3 D coordinator…then again Al made Ryan run the 4-3 when he had more experience with the 3-4, so you never know I guess.

Keep in mind that Jacksonville moved to a 3-4 defense last year and Henderson was forced to play out of position at DE…that had a lot to do with his major drop in stats last season.

No sour grapes at all. Just stating a fact. You’re not big on facts are you RR? I actually like the signing. What it means is a couple of the Dlinemen are not going to make the roster which is probably a good thing. It shows the Raiders are serious about fixing their problems.

Again, it’s not just last year. His production has been in steady decline ever since he signed a big contract. Not a good sign.

June 11th, 2010 at 11:49 am
There’s no excuse for our defense now. We will definitely be in the top 10 of defenses and quite possibly could make a top 5 bid. If the offense can control the ball and not give it back, keeping the D off the field all the time, we will be a top 5 Defense.
I see us taking the AFC West this year. Denver & KC are both still messed up and San Diego didn’t get better this time around. I believe they will miss LT even though he was getting long of tooth.
It’s payback time! That’s when we kick ass & take names.
June 11th, 2010 at 11:49 am
Yeeeaaahhhhhh!
Raiders FINALLY sign the guy I wanted…BIG DT JOHN HENDERSON, to add depth, strength, experience and leadership to that D-Line!
Yeah baby, it’s going to be nice adding him to that DT rotation to help stuff the run!
He will bring alot of leadership and character to that locker room as well!
Good bargain basement signing!
Screw Albert Haynesworth!
June 11th, 2010 at 11:50 am
the Raiders gave up 155 yards rushing per game last year & 24 rush TD’s.
the Jags gave up 116 yards rushing per game last year & 12 rush TD’s.
that was playing with guys like MLB Daryl Smith (replaced by Kirk Morrison) and rookie DT Terrance Knighton last year …
June 11th, 2010 at 11:51 am
Seymour,
It is true that after 2006 his production has certainly declined, but last year’s VERY poor numbers had to do with playing in the 3-4…if he can get back to even his 2008 numbers we will have improved over Warren.
June 11th, 2010 at 11:54 am
Looks like the run D has been adressed, but what about our nickel situation???
Routt gets burned all the time and our new rookies are already getting abused in OTA’s.
June 11th, 2010 at 11:54 am
man i am getting excited for football raiders have really done some good things this off season finally, no big name no big spending and letting our coaches get good quality football players that love the game
June 11th, 2010 at 11:54 am
Last season, the Jaguars switched to a 3-4 defense after they lost defensive end Reggie Hayward to a season-ending leg injury in the opener.
But that defense didn’t fit their personnel well, and they eventually switched back to the 4-3, although they never did find a way to rush the passer.

June 11th, 2010 at 11:56 am
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Huff at LCB this year. That would mean that Branch would be at FS and Mike Mitchell at SS. I like it. The defense is finally coming together. Nhamdi will be tested more this year. It would be great for him to have a record year in INT’s.

I didn’t like this signing 2 months ago because Hen would have commanded some real good $$$. Now after he had no offers came in and his value plummeted, this could be a NICE signing. I am still a bit skeptical tho.

Al is still alive and kicking baby. These are the perfect Vets we should get. The guys with a chip on their shoulders that can give us 1-2 yrs. At the very least, they should play his face slapping antics on the jumbotron before every game to get the crowd fired up. Can’t wait to go there in Dec.
June 11th, 2010 at 12:00 pm
Let CJ be the nickle back with Routt being in the dime package. That works for me.

Playing with Kelly at DT and Seymour at DE will hopefully resurrect Henderson’s stats…
…now the question is, will the Raiders move Seymour to LDE where he belongs and let Houston and Shonasy play RDE?
June 11th, 2010 at 12:06 pm

Getting Mitchell into the starting line-up further strengthens our run D. Huff can roll to CB very easily. His coverage skills are excellent. I don’t look at this as a big change . Just a refinement of personnel usage.

Believe it or not I am always a cheery guy! I have felt the problems with the Raider run defense has been more on the LB and 2ndary than it has been on the Dline. Not that the Dline couldn’t have been improved. I think the additions of Wimbley, Mike Mitchell, Tyvon Branch, McClain, in addition to Houston, Henderson and Richard Seymour are going to really help the run defense.
June 11th, 2010 at 12:10 pm
I can see Kelly having his best year this season playing alongside Henderson.

OJ Simpson Seeking New Trial At State Supreme Court
KEN RITTER | 06/10/10 08:43 PM |
O.J. Simpson’s lawyer says time could be the biggest hurdle he’ll face when he asks the Nevada Supreme Court on Friday to overturn the imprisoned former football star’s conviction in a September 2007 hotel room heist and grant a new trial.
“We only have 15 minutes to make our arguments. It really is daunting,” Yale Galanter said Thursday. “But what the public doesn’t know is that there are hundreds of pages of briefs that have already been filed.”
Simpson and convicted co-defendant Clarence “C.J.” Stewart won’t be in court when their lawyers tell a trio of justices that Simpson’s fame – and his acquittal in the 1994 slayings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman in Los Angeles – tilted the Las Vegas proceedings in favor of the prosecution.
Simpson, who turns 63 next month, has been working as a gymnasium janitor while serving nine to 33 years at a state prison in the northern Nevada town of Lovelock.

Here’s hoping Henderson can contribute. From what Cable has said, Kellen Heard is going to be a good player but needs to develop a bit more. Playing behind Henderson for a year could be very beneficial to the young man.
Henderson may or may not be the player he was, but it doesn’t mean he’s forgotten how to play.
Kelly and DBryant, Henderson and Heard. Not a great rotation, but we’ve seen a lot worse here. If they can just hold the fort in the middle and let the LBs and ends do their thing we should be better.
June 11th, 2010 at 1:28 pm

Henderson, Kelly, Bryant & Seymour will be the rotation.

the Raiders gave up 155 yards rushing per game last year & 24 rush TD’s.
the Jags gave up 116 yards rushing per game last year & 12 rush TD’s.
that was playing with guys like MLB Daryl Smith (replaced by Kirk Morrison) and rookie DT Terrance Knighton last year …
===================================================
good point

I dont want to put a damper on this great NATION news
but, 4 million gallons a day….
contrary to popular belief you have been lied to. Oil is not a fossil fuel but it is a Abiotic. It is created naturally by the earth, and created on a continuous basis. The pressures that I am hearing
20k-70k psi…. nothing in the human language can control something like this. several “plumes” have been reported 5-20 miles away. we are looking at an oil volcano….
EPA report stuff in the air include;
1. hydrogen sulfide, allowable 5-10 ppb test in the gulf 1200 ppb
2. benzene, luekimia, and cancer, very toxic, 0-4 ppb, test 3000 ppb
3. Metholyne cholride 61 ppb, test 3000-3400 ppb
The only thing that can potentially stop it is a nuke.

Henderson cancelled his visit with KC because they wanted to make him a 3-4 NT. I doubt he’d sign with us for the minimum to do just that!
he’s been a 4-3 NT his entire career

Exactly.
Raiders will (as they have) play a 3-4 “look” but will remain a 4-3 base.

However, I’d hate to see him end up like Jeff Garcia or Ed Hartwell. Or as Jerry Mac points out – Lo Neal & D Darius … Cable wants high character, high effort guys that buy into the Marshall Plan. nobody is above the team. I hope big John comes in here hungry and ready to prove himself after being released by JAX. I want him to practice & play with that chip on his shoulder, give us some leadership too. If he takes somebody with raw skills and a huge body like Kellen Heard under his wing, sky is the limit for that kid too imo

Well, they signed the beef for the middle of the D that everybody in here has been screaming for. The Kool aid is flowing. This is shaping up to be one hell of an off season.
The way I look at it, if history teaches us anything, if we have learned anything from the last 40 years, then pencil the Raiders in for the AFC championship game. Print that. This is the first year of a new decade. So, the Raiders are going to at least the title game.
1970 – lost the AFC champ to the Baltimore Colts
1980 – won AFC on way to SB XV
1990 – lost AFC champ to Buffalo
2000 – lost AFC champ to Baltimore Ravens
2010 – AFC West champs and trip to AFC champ?
Write it down!

Big John might not be the player he was a few years ago. But he is an enormous SOB. If he can just be a rotational player, and help keep guards off of the rookie MLB, then his impact will be enormous.

Big John Henderson’s deal with the Raiders is a one-year deal, which means there is little risk for the big reward of a veteran’s bounce-back season.
Just talked to Raiders linebacker Quentin Groves, a former teammate of Henderson’s at Jacksonville, and he said the 6-foot-7, 335-pound Henderson “is excited” about coming to Oakland.
Here is Scouts Inc.’s Matt Williamson on Henderson, as told to ESPN’s Bill Williamson:
Williamson: “Henderson is a big, wide body that will clog up the interior. I don’t think you will see him on passing downs, but he will help against the run for 25-35 plays a game. He is not a difference maker at this point. But he could be an above-average player for Oakland. I like this signing.”
Oakland needed a defensive tackle since releasing Gerard Warren in March. Henderson could play alongside Tommy Kelly in the 4-3 defense, with Richard Seymour, Matt Shaugnessy and Lamarr Houston rotating on the outside.
(Earlier post:) The Raiders have reached agreement with former Jaguars defensive tackle John Henderson on a one-year deal, a team source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Jacksonville released the eight-year veteran days after the NFL draft. Henderson, 31, is a two-time Pro Bowler who was regarded as one of the best players remaining in the free-agent pool.
A run-stuffer, Henderson started in 120 of 124 appearances with the Jaguars. He registered 329 tackles, 29 sacks and eight forced fumbles.

Exactly….all we need him to be a rotational player who will clog up the middle for LB’s and help stuff the run.
He won’t be in there on passing downs….so having him as a rotational situational DT helping against run at this stage of his career is well worth the bargain signing!

From that report it sounds like you’re right. Might have been Grove. Speaking of Grove, that was a move that kinda flew under the radar. The guy underperformed his first couple of years in Jax. But this kid was supposed to be a pass rushing beast coming out of Auburn. The best in his draft class according to the preview mag I have. If the change of scenery does him good, then the Raiders may have a steal on their hands.

fat Kid, I am not advocating we use a nuke. i dont like the idea at all. I beleive using a nuke device will further fracture the mantel of the strata that was hit.
the russians who are the leaders at drilling the abiotic oil, do use small nuke device when this type of accident happens. the diffrence between what the russians do, and the BP oil rig, is the oil rig was 1 mile under water, not on solid ground. word I am hearing they are talking angle drilling, and then setting off a device of some sort…
We are not talking about a normal oil well. they hit what is called a strata of oil… Our technology cannot control anything under pressure in excess of 21,000 psi, and by some reports 70,000 psi…

Suitcase nukes or ICBMs might or might not get the attention of the spewing wellhead, but if you brought a World Cup live feed in proximity to the gusher it just may go to sleep or die of boredom.
Having watched the entire first match and the latter portion of the second, I would estimate that there were perhaps 58 seconds of action in 3 plus hours of game time. Sort of like watching JRuss engineer one three and out after another only to don the jersey of the other side after the punts to continue the three and outs for that team as well.

Unemployment was 6% when Bush left office now its 9.7
=======================================================
Actually, no it wasn’t. National unemployment numbers when Bush took office was 4.0% unemployed. When he left those numbers had almost doubled to 7.7% the day Obama took over and then quickly went to 9.7% a few short months after Obama took office. Bush took over a well running economy and left with one of the biggest economic disasters this country has ever seen, mainly due to his conservative policies you seem to subscribe to.

It sounds simple enough, in theory;”the underground explosion moves the rock, presses on it, and, in essence, squeezes the well’s channel.” A sign of the times, this technique already has its own Youtube video which has garnered nearly 7,000 hits so far. The footage comes from a Soviet-era propaganda film and shows precisely the steps involved in collapsing a compromised natural-gas mining shaft.
Could a similar technique work in the Gulf? According to a CBS News report, Russian science editor Vladimir Lagowski says ‘maybe.’ According to CBS, Lagowski wrote in a recent column “that the probability a nuke detonated a mile under the gulf would seal the Deepwater Horizon leak is perhaps 20 percent: ‘Americans could take a chance

Exactly who I begged for in my last post. We don’t need massive production from him, just a guy that stays disciplined and won’t get pushed out of his lane like Warren did every other play. If he keeps guys off McClain for 30 plays a game and eats up space we’re golden. Anything more than that is a plus.
If he gets beat out by our UFA, so be it, at least there’s some competition at the spot and some decent depth. If it works out, it buys us a year to draft a NT in next year’s draft or FA class. Great signing, no risk.

last year the great no risk signing was Khalif Barnes. The money was right. Zero to show for it. Perhaps it will turn differently this year. Perhaps not.
June 11th, 2010 at 3:56 pm
Henderson/Kelly on running downs and Seymore/Kelly on passing downs. Makes sense to me.
June 11th, 2010 at 3:57 pm
Great addition!!!!
Not to be highly optimistic but I think is this is a top 10 defensive team this year. We can play both the 3-4 and 4-3, there is competition in every position maybe the best man win. Matt vs Houston, Henderson vs Heard, TK vs Bryant, Seymour vs Groves on the DL. Wimbley vs R Brown, McClain vs Goethal, Scott vs Howard.
Now we need to sign T.O, Mawae and Chester Pitts. Actually, Mawae will do it, get it done AL.

from the beginning it has been misnomered. it is not a “spill”. it is more than a “spew”. It is a freaking explosion of oil.
the other day I looked at a live “leak cam”. this was AFTER! it had a cap in place. knowing that the pipe is 21 inches across I looked at it and counted “thousand 1″.
given the size I estimated that at least 10 five gallon buckets spewed in that one second. even given a mis-overerestimation of my part, calculating 20 gallons per second instead of 50 gallons per second…
20 gal per second = 1,200 gal per minute = 72,000 gal per hour = 1.7 million gallons per day.
go look at spew cam yourself and tell me I’m wrong.
June 11th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
We got Henderson on the cheap with a one-year deal.
I doubt Haynesworth would even bother showing up with those type of salary numbers.
June 11th, 2010 at 4:12 pm
Rockstar,
Richard Seymour is a defnsive end, despite the fact that several in here have decided that he needs to switch positions.
He played there last year, he’ll play there this year. He might moonlight at tackle from time to time to take advantage of matchups or help on passing downs, but there’s no way in hell we line up with Seymour and Tommy Kelly as our primary DTs. No way.

LMN I’ll be visiting your city 7/6-7/12.
Any suggestions.
Tivoli Gardens – Amusement Park in Copenhagen center.
The Round Tower – Old observatory in city center. 360 degree views of Copenhagen.
New Harbor – Old harbor area with great outdoor seating restaurants and a good place to enjoy afternoon beers.
Town hall square/Strøget – City hall and a long walking/shopping street in the city center. Takes you from Tivoli gardens to New Harbor.
National Museum if you like history. Free admission. City center
Our Saviours church/Vor Frelsers Kirke – very beautiful church that has an amazing spire that is very narrow and very tall where you can walk to the top on the outside of the spire. And you cant sue anyone if you fall out. But damn amazing views.
Glyptotecket – Museum, large collection of Egyptian, greek and various sculptures.
NOMA – just won the prize as the worlds best restaurant for 2010. Good luck on the reservations.
Rosenborg – kickass castle with amazing decoration and the royal crown jewels in the basement.
Amalienborg – the monarch’s residence.
Operahouse – a huge new opera house
Channel tours – flat boat that takes you on a tour of Copenhagens channels. You get to see a lot of sites, and its great if the sun is out.
Bars: Bryggeriet, Nørrebros bryghus, The Dubliner, Barbarellah, Café Victor just to mention a few. I haven’t been out there for some time so Im not sure which ones are the best.
Outside Copenhagen:
Kronborg – Setting of Shakespeares Hamlet. Very impressive.
Dyrehaven – big forest with the queen’s summer mansion and Denmarks oldest golf course.
Bakken – I think it’s the worlds oldest amusement park in Dyrehaven.
Frederiksborg – stunning castle with beautiful gardens
I think that will keep them busy for some time

Lets do it AL.

I’m tellin you fellas, the similarities with 1990 are almost eerie. Back then my Reds had been horrible for a long time. That year their young talent like Larkin, Eric Davis and Sabo came together, went wire to wire and then swept some roided out freaks from…ahem, somewhere to win the WS in October. That year the Raiders, who had missed the playoffs the previous four or five years , won the AFC West and advanced all the way to the conference championship game.
Flash forward. My Reds after having been horrible for a really long time, their young talent like Votto and Bruce are coming together and they are in first place. Out in Oakland the Raiders have missed the playoffs for the last seven years. Well this year, it feels like the winds of change are blowin. Some serious positive mojo in Silver and Black. We shall see.

- Tivoli Gardens – Amusement Park in Copenhagen center.
^^^^^ I dont care for it, but I know its a must for americans, its the oldes amusment parks, very cozy nothing wild though, what you have state-sites is 10 times wilder..
___
- The Round Tower – Old observatory in city center. 360 degree views of Copenhagen.
^^^^^great spot in the middle of CPH, Christian the 4th made it, he was a nut for astronomy..
___
- New Harbor – Old harbor area with great outdoor seating restaurants and a good place to enjoy afternoon beers.
^^^^^great place to take a pause, the sun is there in the afternoon, a bit touristy, but all my american friends have loved it, and the new playhouse is very near by, great architecture and a great spot for great theater…
___
- Town hall square/Strøget – City hall and a long walking/shopping street in the city center. Takes you from Tivoli gardens to New Harbor.
^^^^^
do this before New Harbour, its about a mile long first street in the world for just pedestrians..
___
- National Museum if you like history. Free admission. City center
^^^^^Must see, I love it, i come there often, you’ll going to get a real understanding how old Denmark is..
___
- Our Saviours church/Vor Frelsers Kirke – very beautiful church that has an amazing spire that is very narrow and very tall where you can walk to the top on the outside of the spire. And you cant sue anyone if you fall out. But damn amazing views.
^^^^its outstanding, and the freetown christania is nearby if you are interested in that kind of lefty stuff.. there are TWO ore churches you got to visit if you have the time and the interest.. 1) Vor Frue Kirke/Domkirken, Notre Dame, Our Lady, great room, Neo-Classicist and Thorvaldsens original sculptures which are in churces all over the world.. 2) Christianborg Slotskirke, its one of the most beautiful rooms in the world, its classicist, and I hope to be married there some day..
___
- Glyptotecket – Museum, large collection of Egyptian, greek and various sculptures.
^^^^^ Must see, its the privat collection of the creators of Carlsberg, they gave their fortunes and their art to the Danish people and its really something..
___
- NOMA – just won the prize as the worlds best restaurant for 2010. Good luck on the reservations.
^^^^^ I ate there once, and I LOVED it, if I had the Doe and the time I would eat there each night, if you long for some more american food, go to Halifax, it has CPH’s best burger, and great Chipotle…
___
- Rosenborg – kickass castle with amazing decoration and the royal crown jewels in the basement.
^^^^^ Well its a tiny castle its whats called a erimitage, its a house the King (Christian 4th) made for himself in what used to be downtown CPH, the Jewels are spetacular, and by visiting you’ll understand why one of our Kings was called Grand Pa of europe, all his sons and daughters was married into other royalties.. I stood guard there when I was a soldier, the royal guards’ barracks is very nearby
___
- Amalienborg – the monarch’s residence.
^^^^^ Fine part of town, its where I stood guard most of the time, before my joint in the yugo’s..
___
- Operahouse – a huge new opera house
^^^^^ Paid by Mearsk’s patriarch, huge colossus, great view from the top deck, honestly an ugly building, but one of the worlds best concert halls, it has it all, fantastic..

^^^^^ what the Tin says, great if its sunny, and you will see CPH from all its angles, the guides are very good…
____
- Bars: Bryggeriet, Nørrebros bryghus, The Dubliner, Barbarellah, Café Victor just to mention a few. I haven’t been out there for some time so Im not sure which ones are the best.
^^^^^ tough to say, in CPH its like so many other places it depends on what you are looking for.. all places are good suggestions, though a bit touristy..
___
- Outside Copenhagen:
Kronborg – Setting of Shakespeares Hamlet. Very impressive.
^^^^^ aboslutely a must if you are going site-seeing outside CPH, a suggestion is Frederiksborg slot( Frederiksborg Castle)…
___
- Dyrehaven – big forest with the queen’s summer mansion and Denmarks oldest golf course.
^^^^^ Great place, trees, deers and nature, take a trip round the forest in a carriage with your loved one, very romantic, though the queen isnt there, here summer mansion is in Jutland in Aarhus, the house out there is a 1700 hunting “cabin” =)…
___
- Bakken – I think it’s the worlds oldest amusement park in Dyrehaven.
^^^^^Major touristy, very near Dyrhaven, so if you go there you might as well go here, its mostly Danish tourist and not foreign tourists..
___
- Frederiksborg – stunning castle with beautiful gardens
^^^^^Totally must see, I didnt see it was here on your list, so I suggested it under Kronborg…

June 11th, 2010 at 5:36 pm
—”Rookie second-round DT Terrence Cody has shown even better than the Ravens expected in spring practices. “We are really, really pleased with the player we see,” coordinator Greg Mattison said. “All the things we hoped, all the things we thought we saw either on film or at our workout … have been coming through.” The Ravens are loaded at defensive tackle this year and figure to be murder on fantasy backs once again.

You mentioned the Seymour contract negotiations earlier. That would be the cherry on this offseason sundae, IMO. If the Raiders could reach a fair contract with him. One that made Richard and his people happy, but that wasn’t one of those ridiculous deals Al’s been doling out lately. That made people scratch their head and say WTF? He seems to be acting much more rationally this year. So far, so good.
June 11th, 2010 at 7:19 pm
J. Henderson had the worst production of his career last year with 36 tackles, 3 passes defensed and 2 forced fumbles.
Richard Seymour had 47 tackles (17 of those were assists) 4 sacks 3 passes defensed.
Henderson’s production added to Seymour’s could benefit the Raiders.
IF like Jerry said, he makes the final cut down.
June 11th, 2010 at 7:27 pm
It looks like the Raiders have some players that want to play inspired football. A nice mix of young cats and good but maybe declining vets on D that can help lead and help others mind their responsibilities.
Kudos to Kirk but I’m not sure he had the leadership neccesary.
Seemed almost like he was trying to pad his stat instead of staying home and guarding his gaps.
Too often over ran plays, made bad reads and worse audlibles.
Lets hope McClain’s the real deal and a field general right off the bat.
If not, I belive he will be but maybe its a little much with the transition year one, but I hope he can be a productive starter.
A pro bowl and ROY would be nice too!
June 11th, 2010 at 7:39 pm
Nnamdi,
If he makes it? You don’t think Henderson can beat out Boschetti or William Joseph, who the Raiders have seemingly cut and then resigned about three or four times?
I said awhile back, that there must be something wrong with Henderson. Bad knees or back. Attitude or even drug problem. Not only hadn’t the Raiders signed him, but nobody else had either. And big run stuffing DT’s are at a premium.
Hopefully, it was just a case of him wanting too much money. Thinking he was still going to command top dollar. Kind of like the talk of TO pricing himself out of the market. Maybe he realized he wasn’t going to get it, and signed with Oakland after hearing good things from his former teammates in Jax.
That would be the best case scenario, IMO.
June 11th, 2010 at 7:58 pm
247. Lets hope so!
June 11th, 2010 at 8:04 pm
Nnamdi,
McClain is being touted for ROY. By both John Clayton of BSPN and Jamie Dukes of NFLN. Still early, yes. But it’s nice to hear a Raider draft pick praised instead of mocked.
I’m sure you read on here about Kiper reevaluating the Raiders draft. He said he thought about it and Lammar Houston compared to fellow Big 12 DT Gerald McCoy of OK. Who was a concensus top 5 pick. Kiper said Houston could be a steal for the Raiders.
I’m tellin ya, there’s a whole different vibe around this years team. Good things could be in store for the Raider faithful.
June 11th, 2010 at 8:13 pm
so is this offical cuz its not on the raiders transaction list
June 11th, 2010 at 8:22 pm
Oh well. So much for the cautious optimism approach. That’s out the window. I can’t help it. The koolaid is tastin’ goood.

June 11th, 2010 at 8:53 pm
ESPN doesn’t have to confirm it, and I wouldn’t believe it anyway from them. But we can all count this one to be true. We all know how slow the Raiders can be to put up signings on their website.
Anyway, until somebody else shows me more heart though, #80 Miller will be the jersey I’m buying.
as always, GO RAIDERS!
June 11th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
Nice Signing.
Go Raiders. 10-6
June 11th, 2010 at 9:08 pm
Would someone like to go to the pre-draft archives and see what Steve Alford had to say about cutting JR, how we WOULD get Campbell (and how I really didn’t want to), and that we needed to get Henderson. Anyone care to find out what I said about those things a few months ago?
June 11th, 2010 at 9:23 pm
We have a good defense now with the potential of being great.
•DTs: Henderson, TK, Bryant, and Heard.
•DEs: Seymour, Matt S, Houston, and Groves.
•LBS: McClain, Scott, Wimbley, TH, Brown, and Euk/ Norris/ Goethel
•CBs: Nnamdi, CJ, Routt, McFadden, and Ware.
•Ss: Branch, Huff, MM, and I hope it’s not Eugene.
This Defense has 6 players that were selected in the 1st RD, and 5 players selected in the 2nd.
We have talent on Defense!!
June 11th, 2010 at 9:24 pm
I just seen this on nfl network right now. it was kinda humerous, because for once dukes and charles backed us. they both said the same things I hear around here lately. basically we’re chasing sd, and the afc west is all open. with wins to be made by oakland. charles also said something laek, others, and myself have been saying 8-8. I know big deal we got ranked 28, but even Rich Eisen said that was by the fans. not the experts, guess not eveeryone hates the Raiders. thoughts y’all?
June 11th, 2010 at 9:29 pm
I think we should cut Brown, Euk, Williams, and Keep Goethel. Condo is a LS.

Hey 24, about your post #259 – all I gotta say is that it is a good thing that Russell is gone. With that much intensity, JR’s mellowness would’ve been a drag. Besides, I think it wouldn’t have been long before JR would’ve gotten pimp slapped like that.

Great day to be a raiders fan. Just think where we were a year ago, alot does change in a year. anyway whether we run a 4-3 or a 3-4 it doesn’t matter cause teams aren’t gonna run all over us anymore. not to be greedy but a little more o-line help and a wr or rb or both would be nice!

Not only should we continue drilling we should increase it 6x. We should drill in Alaska as well. Only a idiot would want to be dependent on foreign oil. China, Russia, India, they are ALL out there drilling ONLY the US pulled out.

Hey don’t shoot the messenger, that was what was reported by pft.
The fact of that statistical measure, plus no interest in the FA market, has to at least give it some merit.

June 12th, 2010 at 8:44 am
I don’t see how a football team can turn a corner without having played a game, but if you guys say so. It’s just that I saw a lot of the same talk two years ago when we signed Walker, G. Wilson and co. There’s a reason we have Henderson, and we didn’t win him in a bidding war. I haven’t done a google on him yet to see what his cons are, but I can just guess what they are from here. I can see the logic in him being a “can’t miss” scenario because of what we’re paying for him, but does that mean he’s a good player? It just means if he sucks, we won’t be losing as much money. And then there’s Al Davis. Even if these players are good, we have an owner who’s a noted meddler and is also noted a noted believer in having conflict amongst his coaches, which pretty much equal chaos in the real world (see Cable/Hanson, and Rich Gannon’s comments about his time here.)
June 12th, 2010 at 8:47 am
I’m still predicting 5-11. I don’t see Henderson being a charismatic enough person to offset the chaos that will take place from the locker room to the sideline, and the ensuing feeling of hopelessness that permeates the building by late September.
June 12th, 2010 at 8:54 am
Looks like another good move for the RAIDERS… whats next vet oline pick up like flozel? I think we should be able to knock off the bolts from atop the afc west.
June 12th, 2010 at 8:56 am
I am so glad Al Davis owns the Oakland Raiders. The man mixes the best damn kool-aid I have ever tasted, and this years batch is tasting exceptionally good.

Every teams has “on paper” strengths and weakness. Of course you cant tell how fa or rookies will turn out till the pads and lights go on. But there is real reason for optimism for next years season.
June 12th, 2010 at 9:00 am
“It was chaos every day” – Rich Gannon (and this was under Jon Gruden, a coach who took control of the locker room and believed in cohesiveness and discipline)

June 12th, 2010 at 9:02 am
Doesn’t every team have a reason for optimism, though? Can’t every team in the league claim they have a shot at 9-7 right now? Who can’t? Name a team that can’t say they have a shot at a winning record this year while Raider fans can say they do so with certainty.

I think the team attitude has fundamentally changed. I give Cable Guy credit for some of the change. If the HC can not work in the Al Davis system, they should not have taken the job in the first place.
Cutting Russell was huge. Regardless of who is responsible for Russell’s regression, it happened. The entire team witnessed this regression and blamed Russell rightly or wrongly. The Washington game was the best example that I could think of. Grad went down, and the entire team stopped playing. You could feel the air suck out of the coliseum when he started to warm up on the sideline.
Even if only one or two of the so called bottom of the barrel free agent pickups the Raiders have signed decide they have something to prove to the league, I would be happy.

323. Your NFL Total Access rip off of the Washington game as an example of how Russell was horrible is wrong and so was Charles Davis.
Russell was a lazy A hole no doubt but more true was the fact he stepped in as a replacement and was MORE competetive.
The rest of the time he was a bum but this analogy of the Washington game being the norm was wrong.

I went years working 6, 7 days a week, 10, 12 hours a day building up my business, It took a toll on me but I stashed some nest eggs. I did not blow my money on booze, women, drugs and toys.
Heck, I drive an 11 year old power stroker and live in a house that is half finished, but its all paid for.;
God has been good to me.

JFB..
still Mawae’s better than we got.. Grove should have stayed.. but I understand him.. getting away from the raider mayhem must be like holiday all over..
*************************************
Not sure if you looked at the link and whatever “statistical” measures they use, but Grove was a top 5 center according to it, Satele was 28th and Mawae was dead last.
_______________________________________________________
I know the site, and Grove should have stayed, not for his sake, but for ours.. Grove isnt 5th, he is shared 4th or a shared 3rd if you will…
I used the site for a year and a half.. Satele only had 744 snaps against Mawae’s 1039, had satele played full year, he would have been way below Mawae..
Mawae is better in run plays, and thats where we need to make our money, Jason Campbell is used to run for his life so Mawae wont hurt our pass game any more than it already is..

We are looking good so far
up 1 – 0
June 12th, 2010 at 11:53 am

Every team has a “chance” in June, moron, if you’re going to put a price tag on mere optimism, which is what people in here are doing. The Raiders can be optimism, considering their record in the past 7 years and the fact that they still have the SAME GM, but the Rams can’t set a goal for 9 wins? The Raiders are THAT superior to the Rams because of a couple of draft picks, a trade for another mediocre QB, and a couple of bargain bin FA pickups? Go dunk your head in a toilet. Maybe it will wake you up.
——————————————
Yes the raides are superior to the rams because even without a solid Gm, these new draft picks, quaterback and free agents we were more competetive… and with these upgrades were going to be even better. W/0 jamarcus playin I think we would have won nine games last season honestly. Jafatass blew alot of opportunitys for us. You don’t have to agree but I honestly believe that.

Big Ben’s refusal to quit drinking could be a big mistake
Posted by Mike Florio on June 12, 2010 8:30 AM ET
Earlier this week, Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger began the long, difficult process of reconnecting with Pittsburgh fans by making one important but unexpected step — giving access to the Pittsburgh media. Closer review of the contents of Roethlisberger’s interview illustrates the risk of talking publicly prior to the league office’s proclamation of final judgment as to whether his six-game suspension will be reduced, or expanded.
Specifically, after everything he has endured over the past year, Roethlisberger is not yet prepared to swear off drinking alcohol.
June 12th, 2010 at 12:03 pm

Ben wont stop poking women with his woody untill he quits drinking and he wont quit drinking till he hits bottom.
Probaly out of football in 4 years, but talent like that and lots of money to silence the women he abuses might be good for 6 more years.

—”The Jaguars reportedly turned down a fifth-round pick in exchange for DL John Henderson in April. The Jags offered Henderson to the Raiders for a fourth-rounder, and Oakland countered with a fifth. Considering the outrageous going rate for fifth-round picks during draft time, Jags GM Gene Smith obviously overplayed his hand with Henderson”—

Bars run dry as army of England fans descend on Rustenburg
A mass of English and US football fans overwhelmed the South African backwater of Rustenburg Saturday, grabbing a bed for the night in private homes and drinking the bars dry.
An England football fan blows a vuvuzela horn outside the Royal Bafokeng stadium in Rustenburg. A mass of English and US football fans overwhelmed the South African backwater of Rustenburg Saturday, grabbing a bed for the night in private homes and drinking the bars dry.
“I think this is the biggest thing that ever happened to Rustenburg,” said Carien Venter, owner of the Loerie-in guesthouse after not only filling out her 11 rooms but also arranging for another 18 people to stay with friends.
“And I’m not the only one. A lot of people booked out houses. If I had 100 rooms, I would have sold them all out tonight,” she told AFP.
Rustenburg, whose name means “Town of Rest” in Afrikaans, is one of the smallest of the nine cities hosting the World Cup.
A mining town in North West province, it is usually no more than a rest stop for people on their way to the nearby Magaliesburg mountain range, game reserves or the Vegas-style Sun City resort.
Saturday’s is much the most eye-watering of its five first round games.
Around 10,000 England fans are expected to pack into the Royal Bafokeng Stadium but most local supporters will also cheer on the Three Lions with English football widely shown on South African television.
Four thousand extra seats have been added to the stadium, bring the overall capacity at up to 42,000. Many more are expected to watch on giant television screens in a fan park in the city centre.
Large numbers of local and national police patrolled the streets ahead of a match that has been deemed to have a high terror risk rating.
“We have definitely beefed up security for this evening’s match by putting additional members in place, bringing sniffer dogs, additional bomb technicians, by putting in place very strict access controls,” national police spokeswoman Sally de Beer told AFP.
“We all know that the US, the UK are very much a priority … That’s not to say that we have traced any specific risk, but one never wants to take anything for granted.
A team of 12 British police officers has also gone to South Africa to help their local counterparts identify possible troublemakers and offer advice on how to handle the supporters, especially when drunk.
The English fans began packing out bars from the mid-morning, draping the windows with red and white flags. One watering hole near the stadium, the P.H. Network Cafe, had run out of beer some four hours before kick-off.
The atmosphere was largely good-natured and supporters of both sides mingled freely. As they queued for up to an hour to enter the gates and pass through security metal detectors, the chants of England supporters had to compete against a backdrop of “U.S.A”.
While England fans have in the past gained a reputation for hooliganism, supporters said they did not feel any trouble was likely this time.
“You’ve got lots of fans here, but I don’t think any of us are hooligans,” said Tim Marshall from Cheltenham in western England.
Assistant Chief Constable Andy Holt, head of the British police team in Rustenburg, said the bad reputation of English fans was outdated.
“The chances of organised disorder happening in South Africa are very limited indeed,” he told reporters.
The number of English fans is smaller than in previous competitions, partly as a result of negative publicity about South Africa’s crime rate in the British press.
“It (the press coverage) has turned a few people off, but if they were to know what it’s actually like, they’d come out,” said Jack Barnes from Bristol. “We haven’t had any trouble since we’ve been here.”
England are the strong favourites but the US team are seen as the second strongest in the group and their supporters were also exuding confidence.
“I’m excited, I’ve got a lot of confidence in the US team,” said Brian Moore, from Atlanta. “It’s the strongest team we’ve had in a long time.”

dont start lying…
1) there inst any blue in the English flag.. its white and red, just opposite to the Danish flag.. look it up if dont believe..
2) the name of the game is ENG – USA, that means USA is the away team, hence the blue colors, the last team mention is always the away team..
3) England has two uniform, as all have.. England’s home uniform is White shirt, white shorts, their away is Red shirt, white shorts..
4) your away which they are wearing now, is blue shirt and blue shorts with a white stripe across the chest and with red boarders, your home is white shirt, white shorts, with some red and blues splashed around the sleeves and legs..
5) England will NEVER play in a blue uniform, unless its a friendly game, then there are other alternatives, it might have been a friendly, but they dont count for anything..

This move is HUGE, almost as huge as Henderson himself (6′7″, 335lbs). The Oakland Raiders, the butt of many jokes for far too long, are putting together a respectable line-up. DL: Seymour, Henderson, Kelly & Houston (who has been very fiesty in OTAs & minicamps getting in scuffles w OLineman, gotta love that). LBs: stud rookie McClain, Wimbley, Scott, Graves, & Howard are all sure tacklers & bulkier than recent history. And with that stout DL eating up blockers, they’ll be free to fly to the ball. DBs: a much improved Huff, Branch (124 tckls in ‘09), Johnson, Mitchell, Routt, the all world Nnamdi Asomugha along with some promising rookies McFadden, Ware etc. add depth in a very talented & fast DBackfield.
This is a unit that can be more than just better than last season, but quite possibly dominant if our offense can stay on the field for more than 3 – 8 plays at a time (& I expect that from our O – minus Jamarcus Russell, plus Jason Campbell/Hue Jackson). Oh, I’m drinkin the Kool-aid & I’m drinkin a lot of it! Go Raiders!!!!!! Playoffs?? YES, PLAYOFFS! Lets do it!!!
June 12th, 2010 at 2:23 pm

June 12th, 2010 at 2:29 pm
Before picking up Henderson I was thinking about an 8-8 record. I think Henderson is worth at least 1 more win. Remember, he’s blocked some FG’s in the past so he could be a source of some special team plays.
@ 9-7 that’s boarderline playoffs!!
June 12th, 2010 at 2:29 pm
How about Team USA eeking out that 1-1 draw, against those wankers from across the pond!

WK14 @ JAX 8-5
WK15 DEN 9-5
WK16 IND 10-5
WK17 @KC 11-5
11-5, Colts will rest its players in week 16 its a given. If we in the playoff in week 17 we would be 10-6 if we still competing for the division, then we would end up 11-5. Go Raiders!!!

I seriously think our DL would be better if we started Matt Houston Henderson & Seymour. Take out Henderson in the third down replace him with TK. TK is average run blocker, not good one just average. If Mel Kiper Jr is correct about Houston and we know Henderson can stop the run, that’s a better line up then having TK a weak link in the line. I hope Cable switches Houston back to DT instead of DE.

I prefer a front 4 of seymore,houston,henderson,and kelly. Thats a BIG line,should stop the run no problem.We got wimbley and scott off the edge. Defense looking damn good,although corner opposite of Asamougha is a big weakness
June 12th, 2010 at 3:52 pm
Just got here and was catching up on all that I had missed…
Plunkethead: I’m sorry to inform you of this, bro… but LMN is dead on correct, ENGLAND has no blue in their flag. The UNITED KINGDOM (which is a group of countries, of which ENGLAND is a member) has blue in its flag (the Union Jack), but that flag does not represent ENGLAND alone. The flag for just the ONE country (against whom the U.S. played soccer today) has no blue. We didn’t play the U.K. in soccer today, we played England.
June 12th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
Stoopidmike
So you would make TK a DE, you know the most sacks he had in his career is 4.5? He also rarely causes any fumbles. Why would TK play ahead of Matt who had close to 5 sacks his rookie year?

————————————-
I see your point.As i stated,i’m not looking for sacks,especially on 1st 2 downs.I’m looking to shut down the run,and our OLB’s can bring the heat you are looking for.If those 4 big boys are upfront,they will tie up everything.On 3rd down,thats when you bring in sack rotation
June 12th, 2010 at 4:17 pm
Lamarr Houston will play DE AND DT. Depends on the situation but most feel he doesn’t have the sand to play DT in the NFL one of the reasons he wasn’t considered a top prospect at the position.
Theoretically, Houston and Seymour at De seals the edge better than guys like Derrick Burgess and Trevor Scott have and will force Rb’s back into the teeth of our suddenly bigger defensive middle and our rookie MLB.
There will be packages where Houston and or Seymour play DT too though.
June 12th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
And no,TK would be in the middle with Henderson,houston and seymore at the ends
June 12th, 2010 at 4:22 pm

Nnamdi21
What do you mean Houston doesnt have the sand to play DT?
He played DT in college, Mel Kiper JR said that Houston seems to be a better player then DT McCoy.
My whole thing is why switch a guy from DT to DE if everyone seems to think he was a good DT in college?
June 12th, 2010 at 4:32 pm
Mel Kiper this Mel Kiper that. Who gives a fug what “the Hairmet” thinks?
He also said we had a C rating for our draft till he “reviewed it” a few days ago (ie. read what everyone lese said and adjusted)
“My whole thing is why switch a guy from DT to DE if everyone seems to think he was a good DT in college?”
Because this is the pros not college.
Run defense: Excellent pursuit down the line. Upper body and hands are strong enough for him to pull down ballcarriers while engaged with blockers. Regularly lines up at the five-technique, standing his ground against larger linemen using a strong punch and leverage. Stays square to the line, able to move laterally while engaged. Lacks the bulk play inside on run downs at the next level.
Short arms cause him to work harder to get off blocks against top-level guards. Must improve pass-rush moves.
June 12th, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Kiper also said JaMarcus would be an all-pro by now
June 12th, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Kiper also said we would draft Jimmy Clausen
June 12th, 2010 at 4:36 pm

Sounds like something that douche Kiper might say.
June 12th, 2010 at 4:36 pm
The truth is, Desmond Bryant weighs 290, Tommy Kelly weighs 300, so I can see your point in arguing about Houston not having the sand, but I can also see stacking the edges with guys who can force the run back inside to McClain & co.

We’ve supposedly got some guys who can return the ball on KR/PR so I wonder if JLH will play like Johhnie Lee Higgins or Jennifer Love Hewitt this year?
Said it b4, I can see him getting the boot if he doesn’t improve or get over his fear of being hit.
He still gives up on routes or runs the wrong one too often and if Jacoby Ford and or Nick Miller can do anything good in the return game the Higgins experiment could be winding down.
I hope he steps up and claims at least the Z.

so, ol’ Fearless Leader plops the “can’t lose” proposition on Henderson’s acquisition.
coupla days ago Dakota dredged up a spring of ‘08 post from yours truly stating that “the Raiders are in a can’t lose situation” with the #4 pick.
Ryan Clady was the pick and the Raiders selected a semi-domesticated piglet instead.
Last year the “can’t lose” free agent signing was “Ole!” Barnes.
Hoping that John Henderson is “da man” rather than the “can’t lose”.
June 12th, 2010 at 4:53 pm
So after watching another good NBA finals game at Kincaid’s on Thursday….I downed my last Fat Tire and was walking out the joint and guess who was walking in?
ROLANDO MCCLAIN!
Yep RoMac was walking in with that same chick you saw on draft day that was sitting next to him. Big MFKER for sure. Looks like he has frame to get bigger as well. Real cool guy down to earth and loves OAKLAND! He feels the team is ready to turn the corner and he loves the support he is getting out here
Now come on naysayers and try to say I’m lying becuz you know I’m not!
June 12th, 2010 at 4:53 pm
Man… the combination of intelligence and physicality spread throughout this Raider defense has me excited. In the secondary you have Nnamdi and Branch… man, I still remember the hit Branch put on that 300+ pound tackle on that gadget play to the flat… he stopped that dude cold in his tracks with ferocity. watching that highlight reel of big Mike Mitchell hits on youtube, one of those hitters who will not be out-physicaled… I don’t regret the raiders picking him at all. he wants to knock people unconscious. So Rolondo is really surrounded by guys who are, like him, students of the game. Our secondary already has a hitting attitude. if rolondo brings a hitting attitude to the linebackers, this defense will be elite… too lazy and stoned to talk about the d line.. please be as nasty as advertised, Houston. Pinch and twist and leave purple welts from violent engagements with the opposition!
June 12th, 2010 at 4:55 pm
If we have some luck stopping the run, watch the interceptions go way up. More points scored by the defense
June 12th, 2010 at 4:57 pm
easy schedule, decent QB, stopping the run.
Best year ever!!
June 12th, 2010 at 4:58 pm
And as all of you know I was adamant about the need for a NT on this defense. Ever since the draft ended I wanted big John Henderson or Albert Haynesworth.
I tried to tell people on here that the current guys on the roster CANNOT and WILL NOT be acceptable as the run stuffer. Well as usual the GREAT ONE gets challenged and yet again proves to be right on the money!
Consistently since 09 offseason really only two other people besides myself wanted a MLB and NT to help shore up the run defense…..that is Norco Bob and SnB Defense
Al shocked the world and drafted a hard hitting bruiser for a MLB in RoMac and I was tragically upset about not getting a NT in this past draft but hey Big Al shows he still knows whats up and got a very stout NT in Big John.
How anyone cant get juiced for this season is beyond me. Our front 7 will be hell to deal with and our defense will use multiple formations and personnel groupings on top of blitzing more often.
Let’s get training camp rolling soon. I CANT WAIT!

Well thats the thing I believe Howard will split time with Scott at WLB and will be out their on passing downs. Dont trip player we got plans for Howard. That sort of speed is something al loves and I still like Thomas. Met him last year at Chili’s and is a real cool guy. I told him I’d like us to use him on the blitz more often.

Brian,
Sup bro! I seem to recall that there were TWO people screaming on this blog (I know I was before the draft, I don’t think you were back on the blog yet at that time), just BEGGING AND PLEADING for us to get Haynesworth or Henderson or another MASSIVE run-stuffing DT. I wonder who those guys were… who could it be…? Oh yeah, it was you and me. I also said that I did not want Campbell, but that I KNEW that we would get him (before the draft), but that I hoped we would get Albert in the deal. I believe I also said that cutting JR and trading Kirk were going to happen and that we would draft MLB (but I expected it to be Spikes or Micah Johnson). The archives show it all. It feels good to be right… and this season will reflect the great moves.

I don’t see how a football team can turn a corner without having played a game, but if you guys say so. It’s just that I saw a lot of the same talk two years ago when we signed Walker, G. Wilson and co. There’s a reason we have Henderson, and we didn’t win him in a bidding war. I haven’t done a google on him yet to see what his cons are, but I can just guess what they are from here. I can see the logic in him being a “can’t miss” scenario because of what we’re paying for him, but does that mean he’s a good player? It just means if he sucks, we won’t be losing as much money. And then there’s Al Davis. Even if these players are good, we have an owner who’s a noted meddler and is also noted a noted believer in having conflict amongst his coaches, which pretty much equal chaos in the real world (see Cable/Hanson, and Rich Gannon’s comments about his time here.)
**************************************
This is one terribly depressed individual. His life is centered around hating Al Davis. Sure Al has made mistakes. at least the man admits to it. I can respect that.
Watch when the Raiders win…MR will all of a sudden say its becuz Al wasnt meddling and that he deserves zero credit.
Becuz after all…Al throws INTs, doesn’t protect the QB, cant stop the run nor can he catch the ball when its thrown to him LOL

Actually that was Asomugha taking out Ryan Clady on a gadget play the Broncos ran against us BUT game on against SD Branch LEVELED 6-2, 288 lb TE Brandon Manumaleuna (who now plays for Chicago)
Beautiful text book tackle and one of several delivered by Oaklands secondary that night. we should’ve won that game had we not been screwed by the refs on that Murphy “non” TD.
Quietly the Raiders have built a formidable looking secondary with Branch, Aso, Johnson, Huff and Mitchell looking good…

Hey Brian, quick hypothetical question for you:
If your ex-fiancee, the gorgeous yet evil woman of your dreams, who you always regretted ending it with, even though you were together for YEARS… and who expressed the same regrets to you, left her husband for you and you were together for about six months with her begging you to knock her up the whole time… then her husband started a bunch of BS and mindgames, she got scared that he would take her two little boys and run off with them, so she started lying to him and saying that you and she WEREN’T together, even though you lived together… so you decided to end it and told him everything and cut off all contact with her… then found out 8 and a half months later that she had been pregnant with YOUR kid, didn’t tell you, and got an abortion when she was ten weeks pregnant… what would you do?

I know Mel is not all that, I watched this kid in Texas, he was a beast, I personally wouldn’t listen to any of those scouts and look at his progression in training camp, if he gets a feel for the game to play inside then keep him inside otherwise this year could be a learning curve for him.
My whole point is this, we know Seymour and Matt are our future DEs, we didnt give up our first round to have Seymour play for us for two years, I think a player of his calibre can play until 38. Then why have Houston as DE, isnt it better to prepare him for DT position to replace TK who is on his last contract?

=====================
Seymour’s likely getinghis family settled and I think if he wants, he’ll get what he needs from Davis contract wise.
The old mans got a good rep for paying his players (even when they don’t deserve it sometimes ie. D. Hall. Walker ect)
I think diversity is the name of the game in the NFL and Houston will play DT and DE so he can rotate in for Seymour on occasion at least in the beginning.
Could be exciting to see our guys line up at De and then “shift” to DT to take advantage of the O formations.
Seymour can flop anywhere on the line, supposedly so can Kelly. Nice short yard and goal line combos of Houston, Seymour, Kelly, Joseph ect.
Like what I’m seein, hope it works…

Walking away can be the hardest thing to do, especially when we are mad/hurt. The best decisions are not necessarily the easiest.

June 12th, 2010 at 5:52 pm
From the Mercury News
The Raiders addressed a glaring need at defensive tackle Friday by signing veteran John Henderson to a one-year contract.
Henderson, 31, spent his first eight NFL seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars, developing into one of the premier interior linemen.
He has started at least 13 games and averaged 15 starts during a productive career in which he has recorded 329 tackles, including 29 sacks.
The Raiders are trying to replace Gerard Warren, released in March. Henderson is expected to play alongside Tommy Kelly in Oakland’s 4-3 base alignment.
Henderson, 6-foot-7 and 335 pounds, is past his prime but still a productive run-stopper. He also has the versatility to play defensive end in a 3-4 scheme that uses two ends and one tackle.
The Jaguars released Henderson, trying to rebuild an aging defense. For years, Henderson teamed with tackle Marcus Stroud in a formidable tackle tandem.
Henderson signed a six-year, $34 million contract extension in 2006 but became expendable once the Jaguars selected Cal defensive tackle Tyson Alualu in the first round of the April draft. Henderson was released four days later

the thing about our defense is its versatility on the dline and the secondary. hope we move namdi and huff around as much as we will move the dline around.howard will have an impact on passing downs for scott and wimbley at times so im not worried about pass coverage from the lbs.as long as they stuff the run and get to the qb their questionable coverage skills wont be a huge factor. who knows maybe they surprise us and make some plays against the pass. we will actually see all of these young guys develope into what people said they couldnt.

Many still didnt pay attention to what I was saying about Big John…..after Stroud was traded to Buffalo in 2008 he was then switched to LDT or the Under Tackle which is the pass rushing DT…..that in no way should have happened because he is a run stuffing player. Of course the numbers fell….many like BHP and Jhill were not paying attention at all

Personally I think Tommy Kelly stands to gain the most from Hendu signing here. Too many times the last two seasons Kelly was getting doubled for the entire game because our so called NTs played awful. Gerard Warren was a UT and never occupied space. He wanted to just shoot the gap and not take on the LG and C effectively. You cant just try to be a playmaker from that spot at all or you are leaving the other DT out to dry.
Yeah Routt will need to step it up but with the the emphasis on pressure someone like Routt can make some plays IMO
Yes we got some mean guys on defense and our front 7 has more beef. We needed this bad and guys like Jhill and BHP need to go ahead and come around to it

Its’s the only shopping on Harbor Bay, so it’s hard for them to stay away. I had my No2 on btw, I’m always hoping to catch JaMarcus in there with my jersey on. You’d think you’d see that guy in a grocery store, no such luck though.

b what i dont like about routt is he gives up too many completions without makin plays on the ball. he gets a ton pi calls and he isnt very physical. he had a good 07 but he just rubs me the wrong way. he did get robbed on that pick 6 against philly ill admit. kelly just needs to be more disruptive. remember that game against the texans where he had 13 tks? he was all over the place and i expect more of that throughout the year.

Jaguars overplayed hand with John Henderson
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on June 12, 2010 8:09 PM ET
The Jaguars made it obvious they wanted to dump defensive tackle John Henderson around the draft, offering him up for a fourth-round pick.
The Raiders were interested, but were only willing to give up a fifth-rounder, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. The Jaguars balked, never found a better deal, and wound up releasing Henderson a few days later.
Henderson, of course, signed with the Raiders on Friday and they didn’t have to give anything up for him except a contract.
We’ve defended Jaguars G.M. Gene Smith for thinking differently on draft day, but getting nothing in return for Henderson marked a blown opportunity.
June 12th, 2010 at 8:27 pm
Shrewd move by Big Al. Raiders now have Henderson and kept the 4th rd pick to get either Bruce Campbell or Jacoby Ford. I’m glad to have all 3.
June 12th, 2010 at 9:03 pm
Just re watched this today…
Dec. 6th 2009 replay of the Raider win over the Steelers on NFLN tomorrow at 11:30 pac
What to watch for…
C.J. vs Hines Ward: Ward is a dirty azz sum bish
T.Scott at Will solid against run at SAM, not so much
13:43 Routt with nice pass defense
Shaughnessy good at LDE at stacking the run and staying home
G. Russell good return but a faster guy would’ve had TD
Raiders start slow, make mistakes but never stop playing.
Z. Miller good blocker…
11:46 4th and 1. Gutsy, great play call
O line waaay better with Gallery. Morris better at center than Satele.
Same drive 4th and 1 Carlisle completely whiffs on 3rd and 1. J Kow kick. TIE
Higgi9ns makes several grabs thanks to Pitt DB Gay falling all over the field.
Higgs sucks on return and as a WR despite grabs. N. Miller and Jacoby could help esp. in rtnr game…
Farg sucks.
Luke Lawton sucks. More motion penalties against the FB?!! Not his first time…
Pitt 2nd and 4 4:11 Why Morrison sucks…T.Scott at SAM gets held like a baby…big run Pitt
1:15 in 1st qurtr 4th and 1 inside Raider 5. Bad call Pitt. Good D Oakland…
Grads misses open Murphy…this kids gonna be good…Grads not so much…
T. Branch unsung best gunner in the game. FOOTBALL SPEED…
Branch looks bad on next drive “burned” in coverage twice. Further review, not his fault…People point to this drive saying Branch can’t cover, again, furhter review, blown coverages by others…Ward untouched off the line. S. Holmes left free by C.J. on TD play..
All for now, enjoy the game. Its a pretty good one…
June 12th, 2010 at 9:03 pm
Henderson has no injuries and missed only 3 games in his career (all 3 in the last 2 out of 8 yrs). He may have lost a step but he comes to play.
A strong off season. Hopefully, these new field generals, H. Jackson, J. Campbell and McClain, can inspire this extremely talented team to play to its true potential.

RMR, do you feel obligated to play this role, or do you still revel in it?
June 12th, 2010 at 9:57 pm
If Big Bad John is still big and bad this will be a great move. He adds quality depth and experience. He could really help us late in games and especially gl/shortyardage situations. This just makes an already stout defense deep at the interior line. I’m really looking forward to seeing this team.
Is the O back in Oakland? Is Jason Campbell for real? has DHB ready to show the world what the Raiders saw before they drafted him? Is almost crazy to say the answers to all the above is yes. But if in fact that is the case. The (O)akland Raiders could be quite the story in this league this year. They could set the NFL on it’s ear.
Not predicting playoffs or greatness immediately but I am saying they could make such an impact that they could be a real factor in who ultimately wins. I could see them knock a couple of teams off and if they d make the postseason they knock of a team that’s picked to win it all.
This defense IMO will be very good and at times flat out dominant. If the O comes along at the right time it could catapult them into into one of the elite teams in the league. And with that comes the ability to be great. The only thing that could hold them back is inexperience in the postseason.

Whe the Raider are good they are good on Oline and defense first and foremost. The Oline is the deal maker or the deal breaker. If they perform at a high level this team can get good very fast.

==========================
The role of pathetic insecure geek mama’s boy, who has no job, no life, no girl, and lives vicariously through a blog, of all things. Someone who falls asleep with his hand on his mouse, on this board, who wakes and immediately rushes to jump back on and post, on this board, desperately seeking attention..any attention..matters not.
You will rush from poster to poster, like a little child, shreeking out silly little comments, over and over, desperate to get a reply. When that doesn’t work, you’ll jump in on each and every post, commenting to each poster, just hoping one will engage, so you can ask him silly stupid questions, designed to fill that empty void.
that role, geek boy.

You honestly believe the raiders oline, as it is, can perform at a high level? Campbell is a project, Mario got worse as the year went on, Satale is still a raggedy andy out there, RT is anyone’s joke..Gallery can’t stay healthy…

Dear Mods,
If I said anything offensive last night and that was the cause for my comments “Awaiting Moderation” and not being posted for all to see (I was trying to continue my conversation, but Brian will never know the rest of the things that I was trying to say to him and ask him about now, nor will Nnamdi), then I apologize. My intent was never to offend anyone, nor to break any rules of the blog, though I don’t recall breaking any rules. Nevertheless, you have my sincerest apologies… posted here publicly.
June 13th, 2010 at 6:34 am
Can hardly wait for the first preseason game.
No more Jamarcus and all new players and a new offensive coordinator.

Hahaha, yeah but I guess you would be able to see very much of the field with a mask on =)
but you are right, the Keeper can wear what he wants, more of less, some have bright colors so the defenders know where their keeper is, in their peripheral view other where more dark, numb colors, as green and gray, so when the opposite teams strikers and wings have more difficulties to locate the keeper, in the split second they take the shot…
personally, I dont think it matter, i think it has more to do what the keeper feel comfortable in, and thereby more secure..

Question on the substitutions in soccer, if you can help out your yankee friend here.
First off, how many guys are on the bench? When a guy gets substituted can he come back in? How many subs do you get a game?
The reason I ask, is that Ruud Giulutt (spelling off I’m sure) was railing on the England coach for his subs, and I was completely lost.
Thanks in advance!!!

1) each team have 3 subs…
2) No, first out of the came you cant go back in..
3) the squad consist of 23 players, including the 3 obligatory keepers, (so you in theory have 2 plyers for each position)
4) usually you start substitutions after the 70minmark, that why Ruud was pi55ed, Capello, Englands Coach, took out a man after 30 min, thats very disappointing for that player, but Capello is ruthless…

No I not talking about short passing soccer, there are more short passes in 4-3-3 than in 4-4-2…

their ideology is of a vulture, they are not the creating team on the field, so they are boring…

B) The RT spot, with Barnes and Walker and others probably involved?
C) The KR game? JLH-Ford-Figures-Miller battle
D) 3rd QB spot between Frye-Boller
E) Howard just tring to stay relevant and on the roster?
F) DT rotation, with Henderson and Bryant likely locks, and guys like Dick Seymour and Houston who can rotate in, should be intersting what happens to TK if this Heard kid can emerge as a player.

I am very interested in the DT’s. I think if we can stop the run it will change the whole team.
I think we should be excited about the new additions in Houston, Henderson, and the emergence of Shaughnessy and Bryant.
Stopping the run will keep the defense off the field, the offense will get more chances, and it just sets the right tone for the team.
I am hoping Henderson will really help in that area and return our run d to respectability.
June 13th, 2010 at 9:39 am

If Heard looks like a guy who can should stick on the roster and Henderson can still play, what do you do with TK and that salary?

Raiders publicly back Heyward-Bey
June, 12, 2010
JUN 12

By Bill Williamson
The Oakland Raiders are clearly behind Darrius Heyward-Bey.
Out of the blue, Oakland sent out a press release Saturday afternoon supporting Heyward-Bey, who struggled mightily as a rookie after being the No. 7 overall pick and being paid $23 million in guaranteed money. The press release listed all the great receivers to come through Oakland and then stated Heyward-Bey could be the next great one.
This release is significant because Oakland rarely sends out press releases to announce news. It is trying to send a message here:
Here is the press release:
Raiders Owner Al Davis has always said that the Raiders have had the greatest players, greatest coaches, played in the greatest games and participated in the greatest plays in the history of professional football. The Raiders have been dominant in terms of winning. The greatest wide receivers in professional football have passed through the portals of the Oakland Raiders or have been coached by Davis.
Lance Alworth
Willie Gault
Art Powell
Andre Rison
Warren Wells
Bob Chandler
Fred Biletnikoff
Jerry Rice
Cliff Branch
Tim Brown
James Lofton
Randy Moss
Now Darrius Heyward-Bey, the Raiders’ top pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, is prepping to join that select group. Heyward-Bey has enjoyed a workmanlike offseason where he has put in time and energy to prepare for his second NFL campaign, when many of those whose names mentioned blossomed in professional football competition.
“I’m just working on my game, using this opportunity to get better, to work with my quarterbacks and my teammates,” said Heyward-Bey following a recent OTA session. “Just going out, just playing my game. That’s all I’m doing right now. And I’m using each practice to reach my goals.”
The list of wide receivers should make any pundit or so-called expert think twice before putting negativity on Heyward-Bey. No one has come close to the excellence at wide receivers that have worn the Silver and Black. These performers have been the greatest players who have ever played the game.
Hey, it’s great that Oakland is behind Heyward-Bey. It should be. By all accounts, Heyward-Bey has made recent strides in organized team activities.
He was criticized last year as a rookie when he dropped way too many passes and made no impact. He showed he has a long way to go.
That doesn’t mean he will be a bust. He has a chance to do good things because he has a decent skill set. But he has to show it during the season. Again, the Raiders believe he can, but stating that players such as Biletnikoff and Brown were great Raiders so Heyward-Bey can do the same, puts unneeded pressure on a player who already has a lot at stake.
But again, give credit to Oakland for being loyal to its own.
June 13th, 2010 at 10:46 am
E) Howard just tring to stay relevant and on the roster?
———————-
I’m glad he’s still here. May not be much of a run-stopper, but he’s really solid in coverage. I have a feeling if Wimbley or Scott falter through the first part of the season, Howard will back in the starting lineup.

664 – B) The RT spot, with Barnes and Walker and others probably involved?
To me, this is the most important competition. The Oline can certainly be the key to success.
Bush/Dmac will be an exciting competition too. Who will be better as 3rd RB: Cartwright or Bennett?
June 13th, 2010 at 10:58 am
So watching Campbell in the NFL replay of Skins-Saints and Raiders-Steelers is up in a half an hour.
JC looks really good, I will admit if the guy has every thrown a non-spiral, I must have missed it. Just a beautiful ball out of his hands.
One thing, and JHill I hope you were watching, were two Saints DB’s dropped sure-fire int’s. J always rails on Bruce for the lucky dropped int’s he benefitted from.
The point being, DB’s drop INT’s all the time, almost every game. Just part of the game these days.
June 13th, 2010 at 10:59 am
And I think I have seen Rock Cartwright break more tackles in this game than D-Mac did all season.
Seems like a good back for the ZBS, a one-cut and get downhill back.

June 13th, 2010 at 11:32 am
Still not Campbell’s fault on that one, Suisam has to make a 23 yarder.
Times like those make Seabass in the first-round doesn’t seem so bad. How long have the Skins had kicker issues? 7-8 years?
June 13th, 2010 at 11:35 am
Every time I watch Fargas play, I have to wonder what it is that everyone dislikes about him so much. As a third RB, you can’t really ask for much more. Dude runs hard as hell.
June 13th, 2010 at 11:38 am
Plunketthead, M, Lonetree — it’s good to be back – thanks!
Although we have a lot of 3-4 capable personnel, and I’ve been begging to run that defense for quite some time, it was based on our lack of defensive lineman and the personnel we had at the time. One of my old posts, I had the following alignment:
DE Kelly
NT (needed a draft pick or FA)
DE Richardson
OLB Burgess (where the pats played him)
ILB Morrison
ILB FA/Brown
OLB Howard (Joey Porter-esque)
Later, with Trevor Scott (similar measurables to Merriman) and obviously Seymour last year, I thought the quickest fix for us was to go 3-4 and all we needed was a decent NT and we’d be better off running a 3-4 than a 4-3, just based on personnel.
Now that we have Houston and Henderson, we can run a base 4-3 and I’m excited to see what McClain can do as a MLB with space eaters in front of him. Even Ray Lewis had a couple down years in the 3-4 because he had to fight off OLinemen and he complained about it constantly – until they drafted Ngata (who I wanted badly over Huff in that draft) and went back to a 4-3.
Not saying Henderson is at the same level as Ngata now, but Kelly is just average and Warren was a three tech, not a NT, and it showed on running downs because he couldn’t hold the POA. Henderson doesn’t need to make plays in the run game, he just needs to occupy the center and the guard and not get pushed out of his gap. That, in conjunction with a real MLB and two DE’s (houston and Seymour) that can hold the edges to keep those interior running lanes small will compensate for Kelly and allow him to penetrate and disrupt with McClain shooting in to make tackles or at least not getting pushed out of the gap (like Capt Kirk) so the SS can make a play shooting running lanes in closed space, instead of having to wait for the runner to make a cut.
That’s the theory anyway, we’ll if Big John still has enough in the tank to make it happen and I still prefer Houston at the Three Tech to replace Kelly and Kelly moving to LDE where he played his best ball early in his career. At least we have some good depth at more spots this year, much better starters, and personnel are mostly playing positions that match their skill set.
June 13th, 2010 at 11:40 am
“Dude runs hard as hell”
Agreed,but you’ve got to make the first guy miss.Simply running straight into the defender won’t work all the time.

That’s true, but again, I didn’t say he was a superstar. But see what a solid, hard runner in your #3 RB spot – think Mike Bell for NO last season. I actually think Fargas is a little better than Bell.
That’s why I never understood the Fargas hate. We have two more running backs ahead of him on the depth chart. But Fargas understood his role, and played very well for us while he was here.
