Report: McClain unhurt in drive-by shooting – Inside the Oakland Raiders

Nnamdi21

“McClain then chased down the shooter and body slammed him with a crushing blindside tackle”

Seriously though, glad he’s ok…

big pep

revis is full of schyt, last i remember jets have all but 1 super bowl so fuc him and the J-E-T-S JETS,JETS,JETS

Nnamdi21

48. Thats funny. “Kim” Davis could care less about him and thats a good thing.

Cams got bad news written all over him. His Dad is trouble already.

A lil worried about Campbell re united with Saunders but we shall see.

Looks like maybe, just maybe Aso could go and if he does it could free up money for a real WR.

Ocho anyone?

big pep

brady went to new england and took that job from bledsoe, he didnt need to be groomed and when bledsoe left to dallas romo took his job there.

big pep

no ocho, just big nasties on both sides.imo

a rookie salary cap could actually be of help for mediocre prospects like Newton and Mallet and Locker, Kapernick and Tyrod Taylor. nearly every team is constantly on the lookout for a functional QB but no one wants to be caught in that no-win situation of drafting Couch or Carr or Leaf or JaWalrus or countless others who were never worth a dime.
with a structured rookie scale teams might actually look to snag a prospect higher than they would normally go on the offchance that they might pan out, but if they flameout there is not the crippling financial burden.

Jake Locker, like Kyle Boller, never completed 60% of his completions in college, a normal standard for top-conference QBs.

Accuracy issues are never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever SOLVED by NFL coaching.

Locker was HORRIBLE vs Nebraska the two times he faced them. Versus semi-weak Pac-10 defenses, he STILL couldn’t complete passes. Weak receivers? There aren’t exactly many Pac-10 defensive backs breaking out at 1st and 2nd round draft grades.

big pep

lonetree makes alot of sense.

alex7

Can anyone name legit starting NFL QBs that were 3rd round picks or lower?

Besides Brady, who was ONLY a 5th rounder because he started just one season at Michigan – not enough tape on him.

3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th round QBs = wasted pick 99 out of 100 times.

alex7

Matt Schaub is the only guy I can think of (3rd round pick) and the reason he slipped was he injured himself to start his senior season, after only starting one other year.

Locker = 4 years of inaccurate passing and struggles vs Nebraska and USC. No thank you, Kyle Boller II.

Nnamdi21

59. Brady benefitted from blatant and constant cheating.

“How could scouts have missed such a huge talent?!”

They didn’t…CHEATRIOTS!

Tom Brady?

Nnamdi21

Davis beleives in Plunkett…I mean Campbell.

He hired Air Coryell’s Al Saunders to re ignite the passing game in Oakland next season.

He’s going to add Ocho Johnson too toward that end.

IF and thats a big “IF” Schilens stays healthy we may have a shot. Thats IF Wizzer can teach any of our O line guys to pass protect…

Johnny Unitas was undrafted.

Mike Mayock says Locker struggles to throw accurately from the pocket.

Umm, yikes. Kinda important.

KK,

did you not read where I wrote “Besides Brady”?

And again, Brady slipped because he only started 1 year at Michigan.

Locker started four.

And try sticking to the last, ummm, 40 years.

Aso isn’t going anywhere if Al doesn’t want to part ways. Revis made a comment re Aso last time that got blown way out of proportion accd’g to Aso himself.

Even saying he was wants to go to a winning team says nothing ..bec Oakland will be a winning team …win the damn division. Book it!

@Big Pep No one hurt here. lol Just finishing the line that you started from the Chappelle show. When i red the story, that’s the first thing that came to mind too.

Ed McManly

Maybe it was from a debt he owed from that poker game on draft night.

TerrapinRaider

Al & Hue are giving the Wiz his start at coaching in the NFL. No problem with that at all. He will not be the Oline coach though. An asst Oline coach yes, but not THE guy who would be giving the direction. He will have his clipboard learning the ropes and motivating the players ..adding value here and their with technique etc.

Macho Man Randy Savage

You know our run D is gonna rank in the bottom third, but with Nnamdi & Huffy gone, Routt and the fastest CB in the combine manning the corners, our Pass D may fair even worse!

alex7

KK,

it’s called history and statistical analysis.

You can learn from it, or you can draft some development QB in the middle rounds and watch it amount to nothing.

http://www.aldavissucks.blogspot.com The Real MaddenRaider

I don’t understand why Al would bring in an OC to bring back a deep passing game…can’t Hue do that? Doesn’t he believe in Hue? What is Hue’s job?

With so many holes to fill o-line, secondary, olb and dline & wr i just cant see spendeing a pick on a qb.

We have the prototype qb for our system already in the fold, going itno the prime of his career. Davis elevating hu jack, adding suanders and the wiz tells you evrything you need to know. Goodbye kiffin/ cable & zbs, we are going back to the future.

Matt Cassel 7th round 05

I’m showing the reality.

If you want to show that 1 in 300 pick that worked out, go bet $100 on the Kansas City Royals winning the World Series next year.

QB is a premium position. If you’re even close to being good, you get bumped to the 1st or 2nd round.

TerrapinRaider

McClain has to learn that he simply cannot go around those parts anymore or he will get targeted esp if he’s flashing too much with a nice car or what have you. (Assuming it was a bad part of Bama).

I have a similiar issue; although not as servere. My hometown as gone down the toilet from what I hear from fam so when I go back I don’t go anywhere ..just stay in the house with fam. Rarely do I go out and about in town and NEVER go out to the clubs or anything around there.

You want to take pride in your accomplishments but People just dont think and will target you to get whatever they can.

Go out there. See you fam for a few days, stay in the house, soke it up the love and leave in one piece. Keep it simple.

“those parts”? LOL. Maybe McCain was at a Congresswoman’s rally.

Hu Jack and Suanders together will be great. hu will call the plays, he and saunders will put toghether the game plans. saunders is an expert in davis vertical passing attack. This was hu jacks call. Saundrs has history with campbell under gibbs as well.

In other words hujack can over see the rest of the team during the week, and saunders can run meetings and install the weekly plan, and he is a direct extension of hu jack. they have the exact same philosophy and vision.

Davis master plan air coryell lives!!!!

alex7

lol Macho. Because obviously we are on par with Bill Belichick and the Patriots staff at identifying talent, and setting up an incredible system around it.

Again, it’s a 1 in 300 chance. No thanks. Take a DT or OT, where the odds are about 1 in 3 at the middle rounds.

http://www.aldavissucks.blogspot.com The Real MaddenRaider

Mcclain, not McCain. Jesus. Ruined that one

TerrapinRaider

Saunders was Hue’s choice. Period. And I think its a fantastic hire!

The best non-injury full-time college starting QB selected in the middle to late rounds the last decade is…

Kyle Orton!

Yay, a 1 in 300 shot at getting a Kyle Orton!!!!

You guys are something else.
