Look at it like this, they’re making adjustmenst on a constant basis to get things the wya they need to be in order to be successful. Sometimes you think you’re done until the results are in which show you the difficiencies. You then adjust accordingly, biulding a winner isn’t like biulding a car or any other piece of machinery because the pieces have minds of their own. They’re not robots. Guy’s like KoolKell think you get players and they’re supposed to workout or else you’re at fault because you got the wrong player.

It’s just not as simple as that if it were you could biuld a tam on an assembly line. Players get injured have all kinds of issues which do not show up on a scouting report. Meaning you picked the right player physically speaking but he has issues that are near impossible to detect watching film or even in an interview. That’s why the draft is a such a crap shoot you cannot read the players mind and heart.

Thus mistakes that are in the 10’s of millions $ happen so often. Even with a PI on the case. Biulding a winnning team is extremely difficult that’s why you see organizations go 30-40 years without winning. Yet Raiders wish death on a man because he hasn’t won in 7 years.

In reality that is a very short period of time since a SB appearance. If we can just get back to respectability it will be a very good achievement in some respects. If we get to the playoffs in the next 2 years after rebiulding from scratch it will be impressive especially for a team so young.

And that’s not because I’m a Mr Davis supporter which I am it’s because it’s very true. That would mean we have able to compete for a SB appearance in every dcade of our existence. No other franchise can say that and very few in any sport…….period

Not even the most adamant Raider-hater can deny the improvements made by the Oakland Raiders this offseason. Accounts describing the extent of this improvement vary depending upon who is doing the speaking.

Hardcore haters say it’s minimal at best. Hardcore fans say it’s the best since Al Davis took the Raiders from 1-13 in 1962 to 10-4 in 1963.

As is always the case, the truth is somewhere in the middle.

The road back to success and respectability is a long one for the Raiders. Improvement is needed at almost every position on both sides of the ball. A team that has given up more points that it has scored for seven consecutive years cannot be turned around in one offseason.
