Hue at the Senior Bowl
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Wednesday, January 26th, 2011 at 7:05 am in Oakland Raiders.
Hue Jackson has surfaced a couple of times for interviews while in Mobile, Ala., for the Senior Bowl.
Jackson told Bengals.com he planned on reaching out to the fan base in Oakland and although he couldn’t comment directly on any interest in wide receiver Chad Johnson, said of him, “He’s my son.”
CSN Bay Area’s Matt Maiocco caught up with Jackson before Senior Bowl practice for a one-on-one interview during which time Jackson broke no new ground in terms of staffing.

The little I know about the Senior Bowl players the Raiders are looking at…
Allen Bailey: Projects as 3-4 end best. Weighed in at 278, so he would be a LDE in a 4-3. Would probably need to trade up to get him. If Seymour bails and they move Houston to 3-technique, Bailey could be a good replacement at end. Tough guy, good motor, stout against the run.
Roy Helu Jr: Don’t know much, except that he’s 6 foot, 220 and is a physical runner. Possible MBush replacement.
Casey Matthews: Plays inside at Oregon, probably too light to play to the position in the NFL. Have to think the Raiders are looking at him for the weakside. Had 6 passes defensed and 3 interceptions, so he seems like he could handle the coverage duties.

I’m ready for Ocho. A change of scenary for him is needed, and there is no doubt in my mind he would improve our team for a few years.
Things might end with Chad crashing and burning, but I would give Cincy next years 3rd rounder for him if we had to.
++++++++++++++++
I’m with you. I hadn’t liked the idea before, but eff it…bring in Ocho. Give Campbell at least one other legit target besides Jacoby. I have to think HueJax could handle him if anyone could.
I wouldn’t give up more than a 4th rounder, though. Hell, Santonio Holmes is twice the receiver at this point and he only brought a 5th.
Speaking of Holmes, he’s a free agent…..though the Jets will probably franchise him.
January 26th, 2011 at 7:10 am
We don’t need a 3-4 end. We have a couple people who could play that position (although only one of them ever has). What we need would be a 3-4 NT if we were going to switch to it. I don’t like the idea as I feel it’s wasting a lot of talent (our 4 d-linemen are probably our strong point at this time on our defense as a unit).

Whats up Neil…only difference is that Chad sort of agrees, unlike Luke! LOL
January 26th, 2011 at 7:17 am
i agree about chad ,we have to get at least one person to catch somewhere close to 70 plus balls if we are going to the next level ,and he’s not on our team as of right now .i just dont see dhb stepping up or anyone else .we need to see if dhb can play corner ,wont have to catch
January 26th, 2011 at 7:20 am
Hey Hwnrdr! I can see Hue saying “join me……it is your destiny!
January 26th, 2011 at 7:20 am
Having a name WR will force Soup to get the ball down the field to his WR’s, and make him “cut it loose” a little more.

Especially a guy like Ochocinco/Johnson since he’s never been hesitant about letting his QB hear it when he’s not getting him the ball.
January 26th, 2011 at 7:22 am
All for Chad coming.Can’t be any worse than what we’ve got now.
January 26th, 2011 at 7:23 am
Difference is that Hue doesn’t have that commanding voice that James Earl Jones (Darth Vader) has…but I guess its good enough!

January 26th, 2011 at 7:28 am
its gotta be tough to be qb right now for the raiders all wr ’s are green ,o line dont give ya much time ,and if they do ,hope some one is open ,and then are they gonna catch it ,or dump it and hope for 5 or 6 yards
January 26th, 2011 at 7:31 am
Chad would work.Would improve other WR’s and especially Miller.Other teams would have to repect the passing game helping Dmac and the running game.Win,win move.All depends on the cost of bringing Chad to Oakland.
January 26th, 2011 at 7:33 am
Isn’t Chad Johnson under contract with the bungals? I sure don’t see us trading them anything for him, maybe we’d get him if they released him but I don’t see Al trading the farm for him…

January 26th, 2011 at 7:59 am
Maybe he’ll change his name to the player who was formerly known as ocho.
January 26th, 2011 at 7:59 am
I’d honestly rather they go after VJax if we are going to take a head case on. Plax would be a good option as well, plus you could get him on the cheap.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:00 am
Either way a true #1 WR is a must add this offseason!
January 26th, 2011 at 8:01 am
Ocho Cinco is actually totally cool. We need somebody with a personality and tude.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:01 am
If “Ocho” has changed his name again and his cable show is up in the air (as to whether they re-up it or not), then doesn’t that make him the – wait for it – hanging Chad?!

“He’s my son”. Makes the whole Ochoci- excuse me, the whole Chad Johnson thing seem more plausible.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:24 am
according to Wes Bunting…Allen Bailey has been the biggest disapointment…and Cal DL Cam Jordan has been the standout…

CSN Bay Area’s Matt Maiocco caught up with Jackson
===========
Look at Big Zack in the background of the interview.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:44 am
Deuce,
Cam Jordan looks good.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:44 am
That DE from Cal that Mayock briefly highlighted on NFL Network last night jumped off the screen to me in those drills. Normally, I wouldn’t put much stock in a snippet like that and none of the other players featured did much for me. But that Cal dude looked extremely long, quick and powerful.
You guys should know out there. Is he the real deal?
Not our biggest position of need, but I was real impressed with what little I saw. And I feel like this may be a year to just go best player available across the board.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:46 am
Chris,
The kid can definitely play.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:47 am
I used to like 85 alot but he’s just become an annoying clown who’s not half as funny as he thinks. Plus I think his play is starting to slip.
I could live with bringing him in and maybe get a little excited about it, but I wouldn’t be disappointed if we don’t.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:51 am
85>Ford
85>Murph
85>Chaz
85>DHB
Bring him on. Even at this stage of his career, he’s better than what we have now.
January 26th, 2011 at 8:58 am
bringing in disgruntled players to turn around a dysfunctional franchise seldom pans out …
Besides, he said he wants to stay in Cincy and he’s under contract for $6 million in 2011
Lets re-visit this next offseason if none of the youngsters elevate their game (Heyward-Bey, Murphy, Ford, etc)
January 26th, 2011 at 8:59 am
Agreed. Hopefully he’d be a team player for his “father” and not make waves.

++++++++++++++++++++++
Cameron Jordan….he’s apparently dominated every drill he’s participated in. Long, quick and powerful is a good way to describe him. Some 3-4 team will snap him up. He’s played most of his college career as a 3-4 DE.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:08 am
DMAC,
Maybe. I’ll tell you one thing, I wouldn’t trade Ford or Murphy for him at this point in all their careers. And I’d love Chaz if he could stay healthy.
Not opposed to bringing in a veteran receiver, but I don’t think it’s imperative either. Some good ones in the draft, too. I like both kids from Boise State.
If we’re going to make a splash in free agency, I’m more interested in the QB position. Vince Young is mighty intriguing to me. No, he’s not a great passer, but he’s OK. Which might be more than you’d say for Campbell, since he’s Captain Checkdown most of the time. Uses the TE well. Isn’t afraid to make some throws downfield. A consistent winner. Could break off some HUGE runs when our speedy WRs go deep and the secondary goes with them. How many times did Campbell run for 15 yards in scrambling plays this year before there was even a defender on the screen? If VY gets that kind of head of steam he’s taking some of those to the house.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:13 am
Chris in NY,
Al Davis made it clear that he considers Campbell the unquestioned starter of the Raiders heading into 2011. Cross quarterback off Oakland’s offseason shopping list.

January 26th, 2011 at 9:20 am
“Kiss da Baby!”
“Child, Please!”
……Pepe and Scarface reunited!!
January 26th, 2011 at 9:23 am
I remember that and being disappointed. Then someone made the comment that Davis left the door open slightly there because he supposedly said “Right now, Jason Campbell is …”.
Plus, if he wants VY, and he supposedly loved him coming out of college and we all know Al’s love of high first-round draft picks, he’s not going to want to show his hand at this point in time.
I agree. Campbell is likely to be our opening day starter — if there is an opening day in 2011 — but I won’t feel real excited if that’s the case. I think it would mean that if we are to contend it’ll be with the QB simply along for the ride rather than leading the charge, much like it was in just about all our wins with Campbell this season.

I thought teams could only deny permission to interview for the same position but not if it would entail a promotion?

Jets refused to let Dennis Thurman visit Raiders for DC job. I will assume Dennis has some hot feet!
January 26th, 2011 at 9:45 am
If I’m not mistaken, the Raiders can still interview him if it’s for a promotion, but generally it’s a common courtesy offered to the team to ask permission.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:46 am
I’ll bet the interview was for secondary coach, not the DC. This is what I was thinking awhile back when some ESPN doof said that the Raiders wanted an attacking 34 defense like the Jets. I think rather than wanting the Jets-style 34 line, Al wants to utilize the Jets style of coverage, which gets the most out of a guy like Revis, which I am sure intrigues Al, who has Nnmadi Asomugha, but can’t get any turnovers out of him.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:47 am
is Winston Moss under contract next season?
If so, the Packers could deny us as well!
January 26th, 2011 at 9:47 am
Damn, accordning to this it doesn’t matter if the move is a promotion from one assistant job to another assistant job, the team holding the contract can deny the other team. Bummer. Hope GB relents this time.
Promotions:
•The NFL does not differentiate between levels of assistant coaches in its rules regarding their availability to interview with other teams. Whether the coach is a defensive line coach or an offensive coordinator, the rules are the same. If a team wishes to interview an assistant coach who is still under contract with another team for its head coaching position, the current team is required to give permission for the interview as long as it happens between the end of the team’s season and March 1. After March 1, teams can still ask, but the current team is not obligated to give permission.
Lateral Move
•An NFL team cannot interview an assistant coach who is under contract as an assistant with another team for the following season without the permission of his current organization. Teams will usually give permission upon request, particularly if a lower level coach is set to take an offensive or defensive coordinator position elsewhere, but the current team is not required to give permission.

I don’t think there is any league rule against a club denying another onr permission to interview one of their employees under contract.
It’s just not done very often. It’s probably frowned upon in the coaching fraternity for an org. to deny one of their employees an opportunity for career advancement.
Kinda shady of the Jets, IMO.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:51 am
Hope GB relents this time

that depends on what they think of Kevin Greene
Right now he coaches OLB’s and Moss coaches ILB’s.
If they feel Greene can handle both, i’m sure they’d let Winston walk for the promotion and save some coin

I don’t think Al Davis would ask permission unless he was obligated to … he cares more about getting what he wants than doing something out of courtesy
January 26th, 2011 at 9:54 am
OK, forget the part I said about the interview being for the secondary coach position. Dakota and RRS shut me up with their “facts”
But I don’t relent on the second part of my statement, that Al wants the kind of secondary that Baltimore and the Jets are running, while keeping his 4-3 line.
Sounds like we may be able to interview Thurman after March 1st (or 4th). I am sure Al can wait that long.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:55 am
Basically if the Jets or GB (or any other NFL team) wants to be total azzholes, they can deny their assistants interviews unless the interview is for the HC position. That is why Baltimore came out and said they “let” Al Saunders interview because they didn’t want to stand in his way. They could have said no. GB can say no about Moss or the other guy.
That really sucks for those coaches.
January 26th, 2011 at 9:57 am
Damn the Jets!!
Don’t hire the drunk nudest!
January 26th, 2011 at 9:58 am
When was the last time any team asked for Al’s permission to interview someone on our staff? Seems like all of our coaches leave the organization via the “fired with cause” route…
January 26th, 2011 at 9:58 am
I have read other sources that claimed any promotion would prevent the team from denying permission to assistants for interviewing with other teams, but I guess the fact that it happens shows that those sources were wrong.
January 26th, 2011 at 10:02 am
Dakota,
It does suck for those coaches. Which is why I think it’s done so infrequently. It stands in the way of somebody’s career advancement.
Obviously Coordinator is a much more high profile position, than an anonymous DB coach.
Say, hypothetically Thurmond came to Oakland as a new DC. Their young talent jelled and he did a good job and moved their ranking from 28 to a top 10 defense.
Well, then in another year or two he might be a hot commodity for a HC position. Get his name out there.
But, no the Jets denied him the opportunity.

Baltimore Ravens
Pettine joined the Ravens in 2001 and was promoted to OLB’s coach in 2005 when Ryan became defensive coordinator.
New York Jets
Pettine, Ryan’s “right hand man”, reportedly received a three year deal to lead the Jets defense. Pettine has been credited with contributing strongly to the Jets number one defense in the NFL in 2009.

Ray, that report is likely bogus!
January 26th, 2011 at 10:22 am
I do not think it is written in stone that JC is the starter, b/c Uncle Al said so.
This is not to say I am not happy with Jason Campbell as the starter.
But remember what happened with Kerry Collins? Vote of confidence from Al and then released.

January 26th, 2011 at 10:28 am
Deuce,
What’s to call? I mean the “Big Nickle” probably has to go. But the doggone defense looks just about the same year in and year out. Except this year the Raiders got better play on the D-Line.
Its not like the Raiders are going to bring in some big time DC that bring in innovation and diversity to the playcalling, formations and use of players.
The only way the Raider defense gets better is getting another big-time shutdown CB to play opposite Nnamdi.
Otherwise, its more of the same….oh and if they lose Nnamdi, forget it. 31st ranked defense here we come

Jason Campbell is the QB next year. Bringing in Vince Young? ARe you serious? AFter the JaDavis debacle.
Listen carefully. The Raiders are not the place for undisciplined players and its not for those who are not self-motivated.
Why is Tennessee getting rid of VY?
SEriously, Raider fans look at things with rose colored glasses

AS far as DC. The Raiders just need a coach that understands the 4-3. That’s all

I heard Allen Bailey tore a meniscus at the Senior Bowl, could possibly lower his draft stock. I think the Raiders should pursue this guy, another DE that is big enough to play in a 3-4 or 4-3, which seems to be what Waufle likes. He is a bit raw, but I have no doubts that Waufle can coach him up. With Houston and Shaugnessy holding down the starting spots at DE it doesnt seem like a position of need, but another big body who can rotate into the inside or outside of the D-line would be huge, considering our weak depth at the position. Still need a nose though, big time.

You did not like the Big Nickel?
I like when they brought in Mitchell for Groves, Wimbley slides down to DE, but would rather see another CB than Howard. I liked the safety blitz, other than Colts game, cannot fool Manning.

The literal play calls have been our weakness.. The system works when given the right players. Last year was an example…
How many times did Marshall call the damn zone and we get burned by it..
