Raiders’ players camp in Atlanta
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Monday, May 16th, 2011 at 3:26 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The “neutral site” Jason Campbell referred to in interviews last week in interviews with PFT Live and Sirius XM radio will apparently be in the Atlanta area.
According to the NFL Network’s Jason LaCanfora, approximately 25 to 30 players are expected at a Monday through Friday camp at an undisclosed location in the Atlanta area.
It’s convenient for both Campbell and Richard Seymour, who are organizing the camp. Campbell lives in Northern Virginia, Seymour in South Carolina.
It look as if that’s the only work players will be getting for awhile. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals granted a stay to ownership through the appeals process Tuesday, meaning that unless there is some kind of unlikely breakthrough, players should be on their own through at least this month.

Go Raiders!

MR is jealous of ALL HUMANS.
May 16th, 2011 at 3:41 pm
I think the definition of the word “jealousy” is lost on a lot of Raider fans. The only people who are jealous of Al Davis and/or the Raiders in general are people who are either involved with, or fans of, teams that have went more than 7 consecutive years losing 11 or more games.
May 16th, 2011 at 3:43 pm
And I think it speaks to the collective denial in the “raider nation”. You can pretend the past 8 years didn’t happen. Society at large won’t. It is basically impossible to be jealous of the modern day Oakland Raiders. There is literally nothing to be jealous of.
May 16th, 2011 at 4:19 pm
The NFL was granted a stay it’s going to eb a while folks!!
May 16th, 2011 at 4:23 pm
True because MR is not human he’s a Cyborg, why do you think he’s in here everyday allday?
May 16th, 2011 at 4:31 pm
good point RAIDER. And sadly some fans think that we’re going to improve simply because we promoted our O-coordinator to coach.
QB talent – subpar
OL talent – subpar and possibly terrible.
WR talent – terrible (honestly, compare it)
LB talent – subpar
DB talent – subpar to terrible without Aso and Huff.
2011 opponents – Packers, Jets, Bears, Pats, Vikings, Dolphins, Texans.
Count on at LEAST 5 losses just right there.
May 16th, 2011 at 4:35 pm
Yea DVD let it out of the bag in his interview last week on Silver and Black Pride that they were meeting in ATL.

you guys see Hue Jack in the ring w/ Andre Ward after the fight? Guy is already in the mix, what kind of trouble could he get in if he attended the atlanta camp?
May 16th, 2011 at 4:55 pm
Being a Raider fan used to be fun. You guys have made it too serious, with your anger and hatred toward any fan who criticizes Al. Sometimes I wonder if the losing is just bad karma. Perhaps you guys deserve agony.
May 16th, 2011 at 5:01 pm
Its a gesture but as far as effects? I just hope we have a season on time and camps so our new faces and new O line can gel

Basically, you’re saying you guys are going to continue making the Raider fan experience as joyless as possible by dividing the fan base between loyalists and fans who need to leave and choose from one of the “31 other teams”. That’s exactly what I’m talking about. There was once a time this attitude was rare amongst Raider fans. Notice, in fact, it really seemed to permeate when the team started losing.
May 16th, 2011 at 5:17 pm
Well, this is quite the hoot. MR, who accused me of using different blog names, seems to be doing that very thing. I noticed you using a different alias a week or two ago as well MR. What’s up with that? Guilty conscience hounding you?
May 16th, 2011 at 5:24 pm
Hmmmm…Guess you’re either trying to think of a comeback or going back through the archives. Hint: It was a couple of months ago. I’ll be back in a day or two…Give you time to prepare.
May 16th, 2011 at 5:26 pm
Training Camp might come sooner than later..according to PFT/ESPN Sal Paolantonio of ESPN reports that a new proposal has been made by the league, and that the players are considering the proposal and will respond. The process could go back and forth on Tuesday, and there’s no reason why the parties can’t keep talking without the mediator’s involvement after Tuesday, if momentum is building to get a deal done.
May 16th, 2011 at 5:44 pm
Nw they wont get serious until july, the owners are just taking the tempeture of the players to see how close they are to breaking. They do that also to appease the fans. If they do make a serious offer it’s because they tenured owners are making headway. Deep down this is a fight amongst the owners to get the players to except a deal which will allow the owners to haev a fund taht they can biuld stadia with. That way whenever an owner wants an upgrade he does have to go to the municipalities to do so the money will be provided by TV money and NFL properties.
May 16th, 2011 at 6:05 pm
“As for the “penalty box,” that was mostly put in place because of a perception that Bay Area media _ or as Warren Sapp termed “the local yokels” _ has been too critical. Some bigger national outlets get to move more freely if they’re considered more friendly or have a relationship with whoever the coach happens to be in a particular year.”
This is why I enjoy Jerry’s blog, maybe you can read something into this maybe you can’t…but funny stuff none the less, and not bad for May.
Thanks Jerry, the laugh is appreciated.
May 16th, 2011 at 6:19 pm
Canuck, why are you so concerned who’s posting under what name? Do you think people who you agree with here don’t switch names? Why take this stance and by default declare yourself a hypocrite? If you’re not going to call everyone on something, don’t single out those you don’t like and hold it against them. That’s weak and disingenuous. It makes it seem like you have an agenda. Don’t be so obvious.
May 16th, 2011 at 6:22 pm
Canuck Raider, your assumption that I was ducking you is just stupid. It shows a child like eagerness on your part to declare victory in an argument. People are going to leave this blog from time to time. When you declare yourself a winner just because someone stepped away, you’re only going to look dumber when they come back and tear your weak diatribe to shreds. Don’t be a silly little boy. Be a man. Watch how a man acts, if you need help. And you need all the help you can get with me, because trust me, I’ll beat you at anything.
May 16th, 2011 at 6:24 pm
priest, they won’t get serious until July? What does that mean? the Raiders don’t get serious till July? That says a lot.
May 16th, 2011 at 6:37 pm
I would contend that the Raiders won’t get serious until about December.
May 16th, 2011 at 6:56 pm
Speaking of December, I’m looking out my window and there is snow on the ground. WTF
May 16th, 2011 at 7:22 pm
This year should be interesting.
May 16th, 2011 at 7:29 pm
I think this year will be quite typical, actually. Usual overkill of hype from Raider fans. A blowout loss in week 1. 5-11.
May 16th, 2011 at 7:55 pm
It’s a pretty smart location considering how many players are from the south.
May 16th, 2011 at 8:28 pm
I for one think the lockout will benefit this team in becoming a cohesive unit through workouts like these. If only we had the rookies there to learn the Playbook even if they couldn’t risk injury they should be present. Seymour should pay for them to be there imo…maybe he did who knows. Would like to know who’s there. Go Campbell this is what the nation has missed for 7 yrs. Leadership
May 16th, 2011 at 8:34 pm
I guess Campbell has made copies of his playbook for his teammates…….

=============================================
Quite possibly an accurate asessment. One that leads me to ask how were the Raiders one of the higher scoring teams in the NFL last season ?
Some possible explanations/contributing factors:
Raids caught a break playing an easy schedule against weak teams with poor defenses.
The importance of having a stellar RB has been underestimated in a league in which offense is primarily QB driven.
Raider staff came up with excellent game plans and players were able to execute these plans.
Maybe these guys aren’t quite as bad as advertised.
Those are possible reasons, I’m sure there are others.
How will the personnel differ in 2011 ?
QB: basically the same; JaJason.
OL: Gallery gone, Satelle likely replaced by Wiz, non-contibutors like Barnes and Henderson could depart, rumored that Walker might retire. Certainly a unit in flux and in an overhaul process – remains to be seen if this unit gets worse with change, improves or remains about the same.
WR: basically the same; young cast gets a year older and wiser, but unless there’s a FA signing or a rookie is able to make an immediate impact, this unit remains the same.
So what does this mean for the prospects of the Raids remaining a high scoring team in 2011 ?
If one places an emphasis on the poor level of 2010 opposing defenses and an expectation that the Raids will face better opposition in 2011, we can expect a step backwards.
On the other hand, it’s quite possible even without major changes in the offensive personnel, the Raids will still continue to perform well and what we perceive to be much better opposition today mught not turn out to be as staunch as we expect.
Personally, I find it hard to be optimistic about this team ever having a robust passing attack with JaJason at the helm. I think there is some validity to the ‘easy schedule’ factor in the revitalization of Raider point production, but it’s one that might be exaggerated.
Quite frankly, I find it difficult to explain how the Raids went from a doormat dormant offense to one of the higher scoring units in the NFL.
Whatever the reasons, I sure hope they consistently put up points in 2011. Sure, the 48 point explosions against Denver are great – but it’s essential that the team is able to score with regularity, week in and week out, against tougher opposition – if 2011 is going to be a success.
May 16th, 2011 at 9:09 pm

Why say you are here all day, every day, because you want to be just like the other old coot on this board?

—————————————–
This assessment depends on how one looks at the team. QB talent subpar, but what are the Raiders asking him to do? The team identity is run first. Oline is definitely subpar and possibly terrible when it comes to pass protection, but in the run game they were ranked 2nd, so in that view the line is elite. WRs…hmmm…can’t really argue there so Zach Miller better be resigned or things can get real ugly really quick. But, the potential at WR is there, the production on the other hand has not, clearly. A model of success that the 2011 Raiders can emulate, but hopefully do a better job than, is the Jets and what they’ve been doing the past two years. Strong defense, no turnovers, pound the rock, and the occasional deepball that breaks the opposing defense. The Raiders can do all of that in 2011, but where they are better than the Jets hands down is special teams, which is a very underrated part of Oakland’s success.
May 16th, 2011 at 11:24 pm
Incredibly weak schedule was the number 1 reason for offensive improvement in 2010.
Healthy Mcfadden was reason #2.
We averaged just 17 points vs non afc west / nfc west teams last season. And thats WITH two Ford td returns included.
May 16th, 2011 at 11:28 pm
I think too much hype is put into that strength of schedule stuff. Seattle beat New Orleans last year…cmon man. That’s why they say any given sunday.
May 16th, 2011 at 11:41 pm
No, the Raiders D can certainly NOT emulate the Jets D. Come on.
We had TWO Jaguar runners crack 100 yards vs us in the same game.
We let third string Colts rb dominic rhodes gash us.
We let the Texans put up 31 on us at home while Arian Foster was benched AND Andre Johnson was out injured.
We made Chad Henne look great.
And now we lose our top two dbs.
May 16th, 2011 at 11:47 pm
510, we played lots of bad teams over the course of the entire year. No one is talking about any one week. You did notice, I’m sure, how terrible we looked when we played the Steelers, Niners, and Dolphins D, right?
Expect the same when we play the Jets, Patriots, Bears, Packers, and Vikings Ds next season.
May 16th, 2011 at 11:57 pm
I tell ya’ I’ve been watching the SD game in SD with my eye on the Oline and the sfaety positions. The most impressive players in the secondary was Routt and MM34. Mitchell could’ve played fopr the Raiders in any era due is a flat out stud, he’s aggessive as hell and hits a ton. On a sweep he hit #35 for SD that big back and stoned him. he covered Gates all over holding gates to his first catch late in the 2nd qrtr. He just palys with reckless abandon. No doubt he can play either safety position no problem. Dude is a heat seeking missle. His enthuisiasm is infectuous.
Also the Oline was not bad at all via the run or the pass. Satele gets a ton of crap in here now if you watch this game there is no doubt this guy was the best Olineman we had last year first he’s biuld like a fire hydrin and good feet angles well and is more stout than anyone in here gives him credit for.
Also for the first time I noticed that Ford played a lot in the slot in taht game. I also watched DHB very closely and IMO he is a lot closer than people think to being a player. I wont make any predictions but it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he has a very solid year.

Raccoon, I thought we cleared this up last weekend. I’m not going to offer my identity on this blog. If you think you can figure it out with your little ip gidget, go for it. I don’t know what you think you’re accomplishing by continually bringing up my ip addresses. Clearly it’s not deterred me from commenting here. If this is some lame attempt to intimidate me, clearly it’s not working. So what’s the point? If you really know who I am, and know where to find me, you’re going to have to be a man (for a change), and step to me in person. Of course even then nothing would change, but perhaps you can get this anxiety off of your chest for good. Sometimes even losing a fight makes you feel better. At least you tried.
May 17th, 2011 at 1:07 am
Gerard, I’m a Raider fan. I “support” the Raiders. Period. I just feel our current management is detrimental and counterproductive. I want Al Davis gone so the Raiders can win. That’s about the best I can explain it. If you have a problem with it, too bad. Because there’s a lot of fans like me. You’re just going to have to get used to it.
May 17th, 2011 at 1:46 am
God bless you, Priestj, but DHB is never going to be a player unless they switch him to safety.
May 17th, 2011 at 2:09 am
@ Kirk, We will see what happens, but i wouldnt write off a hard working player with potential after just two seasons with dubious QB play and a subpar passing game overall – should he start if he doesnt outplay the competition? No he shouldnt!
But you never know, he has the intangibles coupled with some great physical treats to become something! .. He could be a late bloomer that was thrown in too soon before he was ready, causing the majority of Raidernation to loose faith in him, instead of fazing him in as a rotational player until he was ready (… arguments that we should have taken another WR in the deep WR class instead is mood as we chose DHB and he is what we have now)!
Sid Rice didn’t do anything in his first two years either, then exploded in the third (a couple of injuries and no chemistry with the QB – just like Hey-Bey)..
At least Hey-Bey should be given the opportunity to compete for his third year before facing final judgement – only getting what his workouts in practise and play in games merits naturally, has to earn it..
May 17th, 2011 at 2:23 am
“Sal Paolantonio just reported that the NFLPA asked the NFL to give them a new offer, and that they’re going to meet well into the night. Carl Eller said he was very optimistic.”
Could it be that they will be willing to make a deal? 8th circuit seems to be in favor of the owners, but it is not a definite certainty, which might make most owners prefer a deal done before the hearing in june.. And the players just realized that they most likely won’t win anything by dragging it out to long – could be a situation where both parties are willing to budge a little (the players the most)! Lets hope..

G’Mornin fellas.
‘Sup RRS, Hwnrdr?
Alex7 and alot of others are complaining about next years schedule. How tough it is and crying woe is me, no way can Oakland duplicate their record from last year. Doom and Gloom. 6-10 at best. Probably 5-11. OH NO!
Here’s how I look at the schedule: The .520 SOS is the exact same as last year. The Raiders swept their division foes last year, hammering each in their own backyard. Tough to duplicate that this year. I’m hoping for a 4-2 division record. Anything better would be awesome.
NOT ONLY do the Raiders have to play New England, Green Bay, etc….everybody does. The AFC West has a tough draw with AFC East and NFC North.
The Difference is… in addition, KC gets Pittsburgh and Indy. Have you seen their friggin schedule? San Diego gets Baltimore, while Oakland host the Browns.
Advantage: Oakland.
I think the West is a race to 9-7. I think Oakland has a chance to get there. Hell, a couple of years ago SD won it at 8-8. Could happen again.
I’m not as scared of Minnesota and their aging defense as Alex is. Yes they have AP, but that’s not an automatic loss, IMO. Neither is hosting Da Bears in Oakland. Tough games, but winnable. Geez.
I think Oakland has as good a shot as anybody to take the division. But I guess I’m a glass half full kinda guy. Negative Nancies.

After the draft, Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones acknowledged that the team wouldn’t shy away from free agency. “Certainly we will be looking there,” Jones said. “If we can help our team, we will do it.”
May 17th, 2011 at 7:18 am
@Buckeyeraider,
Good point, thought about that as well – the schedule is difficult for all AFC West teams, not just the Raiders! We compete against the other division rivals on a spot, and we have actually been pretty lucky with regards to additional teams as well as construction of the schedule! The difficult schedule could mean that AFC West is out of the race for a wild card spot, but that is seen many times before, and it doesnt matter if we take the division.. So it only matters with regards to the division commpetition, and there we’re not worse off than the others..
May 17th, 2011 at 7:26 am
I think that KC is the least likely to repeat as division champs. But then again, anyone could win this division. It’s going to be wide open, and I don’t think that Denver is going to be that bad. Especially with the tougher schedule for all, you can throw last years records out the window if you are looking to forecast next year.
May 17th, 2011 at 7:35 am
With KC a losing their OC and Denver trying to decide between Tebow and Quinn, I am FAR from worried about those 2 teams in the AFC West.
The Chargers and the Raiders will battle for the AFC West title.
May 17th, 2011 at 7:45 am
GOOOOO LAKERS!
May 17th, 2011 at 7:46 am
Guest,and 2000
Yeah, I’d say it’s safe to say the division is wide open. I’d put SD as a SLIGHT favorite just because of Rivers. As much as I despise his whiny AZZ, he is a helluva QB. While their window is closing, IMO it’s not shut yet.
The big thing is though, last year Oakland got a HUGE monkey off their back. After 6+ years of being tortured by the Chargers, Oakland turned the table on them last year. They aren’t afraid of SD at all. Confidence is a HUGE factor.
IMO, it started two years ago on that opening MNF game. Oakland put a physical beating on them, and probably should have won that game. Rivers pulled out a late one.
This past year, the Raiders dominated them, especially the rematch in SD. A lot of critics said the first game was a fluke. Two blocked punts…Fumble return TD. Not gonna happen again. Blah, blah, blah.
Oakland then proceeded to go to SD in the rematch…during SD’s patented late season hot streak…and kicked their friggin teeth in.
With their schedule, I think KC is going to be lucky to stay in contention. The division could come down to the final week of the season…SD@Oak…for all the marbles.

KC Denver and SD<—–all major jokes….not even a factor if we are healthy
May 17th, 2011 at 7:48 am
@Guest123
The problem for Denver will be how their run D holds up! They face KC and Raiders that are set on pounding the rock! As far as i remember they also face the Jets, the Vikes and the Titans that will try to run them over..
We might be gashed by some long runs, but if they dont get their interior line revamped after the switch to 4-3, they will be killed consistently on the ground.. There are some good prospects out there, lets hope they dont get their pick!

I also watched DHB very closely and IMO he is a lot closer than people think to being a player. I wont make any predictions but it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he has a very solid year.
May 17th, 2011 at 7:49 am
Actually it started against SD in 2008 when we lost a game we outplayed them in. U can see it then ad there soon SD bs hold on us was lifting

We have no idea what our team will look like nor what any of the other teams in our division will look like once the lockout is over and free agency begins.
If we don’t get some o-line help you can mark us down for last place.

May 17th, 2011 at 7:53 am
@Buckeyeraider, yeah, KC is looking at away games against Pats, Colts, Jets and Lions, they have some serious issues!
SD will be a contender mainly because of Rivers! They have a decent roster, but a quality starting QB that can win games and are comfortable in the system can really be a gamechanger! But as you say, the games are open now, will be good to see if we can keep the momentum going against them, turn the plates in yet another season..

May 17th, 2011 at 8:01 am
@Dakota, The uncertainty regarding the roster, with the DB’s and Oline in particular, makes it impossible to make predictions.. But if they fix, sign and resign the players needed to fix these areas, there is an open division to compete in! I hope we fix what needs fixing, cause even an Oline with great talent needs to gel – especially in the run game, and even more so with potentially 1 oneryear starter (Veldheer) and two rooks + a first time starter (Big Barks, Wiz and Campbell that didnt play last year)..
But i think it will be fixed, we will sign a player or two, and when camp starts we will get a look at where we stands and how competitive we might be this year!

May 17th, 2011 at 8:02 am
I love that DHB seems like a hard working guy that really has the desire to succeed….but none of that matters if he can’t catch.
People claim you can learn how to catch and they point to Jerry Rice as an example of a guy who dropped a lot of balls his first season and then solved that issue….yeah well, Jerry was a special guy.
Rice was very good in college, dropped a lot of passes his rookie year (but still won NFC offensive ROY), and then solved the issue. DHB has nothing in common with that….DHB did nothing in college and has continued that trend doing nothing in the NFL.
I just don’t see it happening for him. McFadden was great in college so you knew the potential was there…no such feeling on DHB. I hope he proves me wrong, but I just don’t have a good feeling about it. We will be very luck if he even becomes a slightly below average NFL WR. Right now the offense is playing 10 on 11 with DHB out there.
May 17th, 2011 at 8:03 am

This obsession with our OG position is much to do about nothing!
Our RG play was probably the worst in the NFL last year. How can it possibly be any worse?
We’ve already seen Loper fill in for Gallery without us missing a beat. Gallery was a bust OT barely hanging on at G.
Teams pick up OG in the 6th rd of the draft, they start as rookies, and play 10 years in the league.
OG is not that big of a deal. More concerned with Reece at FB.

May 17th, 2011 at 8:43 am
Dakota,
Have you watched the links to the youtube highlights of DHB at Maryland? I know youtube can be misleading because it doesn’t tell the complete story. They are only highlights.
I compared them to those yearly highlight shows that NFL Films does on every team every year. You condense the whole season down to 20 minutes of all the biggest plays and big hits and touchdowns and you’re like WOW, they look really good. Why didn’t they contend last year? Then you realize they were 5-11. Can be deceiving.
With that being said, the difference with DHB is…you can see that the guy CAN ACTUALLY catch the ball. Something we haven’t seen much yet in the pros.
The 98 yd TD he hauls in vs Miami (Fla) is damn near the same ball he drops last year vs Jax. There is a catch vs FSU where he splits the double team, and goes up and catches a TD at it’s highest point, with his hands and away from his body. Not exactly Swann in the SB, but a nice friggin catch. All I could think is where the hell is that in the pros?
Maybe you can chalk some of it up to level of competiton. Maybe pro cb’s are giving him fits.
But, I thinks it’s more a confidence issue. A mental block he needs to work through. It’s obvious he was pressing as a rookie. It was awful. He literally played Hot Potato with every ball thrown his way.
But, even Jerry mentioned how much better he looked catching the ball last offseason. More natural. Leading to that ridiculous press release. He did improve from 9 catches to 27. Still dismal, but trending upwards.
I’d like to see 40-50 catches, maybe 500-600 yards and 4 or 5 TD”s. An avge NFL season. I don’t think that out of the realm of possibility.
It’s frustrating for sure, but don’t give up on the kid just yet. Maybe this is his breakout year.
May 17th, 2011 at 8:51 am
@Bauce, lets see – I tend to agree with you, but we’ll have to see who they can bring in as it would have to be starter worhty guys.. I watched the games where Loper started again, and he did decent as a backup coming in, but i just dont see him as a starter! Adding two quality veterans will definately be a big help! Just not sure it will happen.. Think we will get one, so that one better be a quality starter to help the young line get up to speed fast! Between Campbell, Big Barks and Wiz, starting more than two right out the gate will lead to rookie troubles – if we do so because of need, i really hope we have someone that is able to step in and some veteran leadership that can keep them grinding and improving (Wiz sr will, but thinking of players that can help on the field)..
May 17th, 2011 at 8:52 am
Buckeyeraider,
I hope you are right. I like the kid….seems to be a hard worker. But everyone can string together a highlight film after 3-4 years in college. Heck, even Mike Mitchell did it!
You can make a few nice catches, but if you can’t do it consistantly then you are useless. I agree with you that it might be a mental thing with the drops. Hands of stone or mental block, either way he isn’t getting the job done.
The DHB pick bothers me more than the Russell pick. At least Russell had great potential. DHB’s potential has always been at the “average” level. Too bad Russell didn’t have DHB’s desire and work ethic.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:16 am
Easy with the Mitchell cracks, there fella. lol.
MM34 is gonna be a great playa. Get ovah it!
May 17th, 2011 at 9:16 am
I disagree that DHB’s potential was “average”. He was graded a first rounder by many scouts. Lacked the production in college, but by the measurables, he was the best WR on the board. And after learning the hard way with Russell, they didn’t want to deal with a kid who wasn’t willing to work hard. DHB at least has done his part in putting in the effort.
I’ve been much more dissapointed with the Russell pick, if only because we all fell for the lie that was Russell.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:17 am
DHB is never going to be a player unless they switch him to safety.

Right now I see the Raiders holding on to Sataele@C and using a combo of Wizniewski, Barksdale, Loper@G and playing Veldheer and whoever @T, with Campbell playing T or G too. It’s messy…
Jason Campbell?? an up and down guy for sure but if he can manage a game and not make too many mistakes, he is the best option.
A lot of question marks on D as well…
Just wish that they got started…
May 17th, 2011 at 9:27 am
The key will be if we can continue to run the ball effectively. As Jerry pointed out, when don’t rush the ball well, JC gets pounded and his QB rating plummets. If we can get B Campbell and Veldheer on the left side and road grade, and plug in some stopgaps on the right side, we’ll be good to go. The passing game will work itself out on its own. I fully expect Wiz II and B Campbell to step up this year in a big way.

DHB may or may not be a player but he aint nearly as bad as everyone makes him out to be. The hate on him stems from where he was picked something he neither asked for or made happen. Scouts evaluated him and every scout I heard talk about this kid had him at worst a mid 2nd rnd pick. Now why is that? Yet we got a bunch of blog idiots who know better. This kid works his arse off constantly. Yeah the stats aren’t there but he is far from hopeless. He’s actually a lot closer to being a player than anyone wants to admit. Because you all are scared to say anything positive about the kid ude to the wrath you may get from the meatheads in here.
I know what I’m looking at and this kid is close he just needs some success is all a play here and a play there to boost his confidence. I think you’ll start to see this kid produce close to where he was projected maybe never where he was actually drafted but I see him getting to the point where his production is acceptable for a low 1st high2nd rnd pick. Will it happen who knows he could get hurt and never play another down but if he stays healthy my money is on him getting there.
I have a rule in life that hard work almost always pays off. Unless circumstances beyond your control take place. Now agree or disagree either way no one died.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:38 am
The owners are the ones locking out…. keeping us from football…. but they didn’t sue to do it. They didn’t take the issue into court. The players did.
So, if you want to point the finger of blame at anyone, point it at the players.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:45 am
There’s no need to attack anyone’s comments and take it personal. There are some in the DHB camp and some in the DHB hate camp.
As long as he’s a Raider, I have to have some loyalty to him and hope he matures as a receiver. I don’t wish ill on DHB. But that said, it’s maddening as a fan to watch him drop passes in close games that would have made the game close or maybe even gave us the W.
And he is rightfully vilified for that. I think. You play the role of the goat, and you get the goat treatment of boos and bronx cheers. Doesn’t matter that you are a hard worker. You either deliver or you fail. In life, failure has consequences. In the NFL that failure is even more obvious, and there is no way to run and hide from it. DHB has done nothing to prove he isn’t another first round bust.
You want to stick up for him on “gut feel”, that’s fine. I wont attack your comment. But that “gut feel” doesn’t convince myself or many others that DHB is going to come out of his funk and be a legit WR in the NFL.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:45 am
Curious to know what Priest saw in that @SD game that leads him to believe DHB is close to being a player.
HE DIDN’T EVEN HAVE A CATCH THAT GAME!!!!
May 17th, 2011 at 9:48 am

Hard-work may help a lot in the real world, but in the NFL, you need elite talent, hard-work, good teammates, good organization, lucky streak of good health, and than MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, you might make a Pro Bowl.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:51 am
JFB it wasn’t his stats at all I know that sounds peculiar but it’s his understanding of what the coaches are asking him to do. When you watch this kid on any given play he knows what to do. You never see him loafing or confused he’s always going about his business in a aggressive manner. I know that doesn’t compute with 99% of the publace in here but for coaches that is huge. Now my problem with him is he tends to be too willing to be a great teammate. he needs to demand the ball a lot more, from opening snap to the gun goes off. That’s where he is desparately lacking. He’s got to go to Camp and say “hey man i”m open get me the ball”. That’s the next corner he needs to turn.

Ford is the only WR with the “My Ball” mentality on the Raiders. Murphy was starting to get that attitude, but he was not the same when he came back from the clavicle injury. I’d like to see Ford targeted on some short routes in space, bubble screens, curls, etc. Just get the ball in Ford’s hands and let him do his yards after catch thing.
May 17th, 2011 at 9:57 am
You don’t get picked where this kid got picked unless the world of profootball thinks you have elite talent. I know this doesn’t compute with you guys but the entire league signed off on this kid for a reason. You can see in games he’s just not finishing plays I know that is somewhat nondescript but I don’t know how to explain so you understand it. Without writing a book.

Till now, the hard work that DHB has put in has made him an effective blocker and decoy at times. But if he can’t catch balls consistently, even his decoy ability will whither away. He becomes a liability.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:02 am
When you see Camp get the ball from C and look downfield 9x’s out of 10 DHB is his first read. he’ll pump fake and go underneath. Now maybe they have a man deep or maybe he’d trying to fake someone else open but the fact that he’s not throwing it to DHB is a trust issue that DHB need to clear up. Somehow someway he needs to biuld that trust that if Camp does ot him he’ll make the play. Ford has done that now DHB needs to do it. Because he is coming off DHB for lack of confidence. They need to fix it.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:02 am
Preist,
Plenty of guys were top-flight prospects who come to the NFL, work-hard, are good guys and teammates and just plain suck still.
That’s life in the league.
DHB may become a good player, hell maybe even a great player. But his first two years he has been awful, and great is a long ways from here.
Ford made more plays, game-deciding plays, and TD’s his first month of playing than DHB has in 2 years.
Why would Hue waste snaps and plays on DHB, when guys like Ford and Murphy consistantly perform better?
DHB had his scholarships years, and Hue was putting an end to that at the end of last year. Unless DHB comes out with guns-blazing the beginning of next year, I would expect another 30 catch 400 yard 1 TD season from him.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:04 am
Guest123 NON OF them catch balls consistently Murphy drops balls all the time. Ford dropped most of the first few paasses Camp threw to him but everyone else was hurt so he HAD TO THROW to him and he started to make some plays. We don’t have a rec who ctahce ball consistently.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:05 am
That’s an excellent point, Guest.
Jerry mentioned that a couple of years ago when the Raiders had those contentious joint practices with the Niners. He said it was painfully obvious how much harder the SF WR’s fought for the ball. That is something DHB and the other WR’s need to work on.
Except for Ford. He doesn’t need coached up in that area. It’s in his nature. He’s a tenacious lil fella. We saw that vs KC. I said at the time that Ford would try to wrestle the ball away from an alligator. I hope it becomes infectous.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:06 am
Usually a WR is given till his 3rd year to “break out”. If he hasn’t done it by then, the guy is put on the scrap heap with a bunch of other nobodies and never-weres. DHB can’t afford to just have a 40 catch season this year as a starter. The odds are really against him, and the time is runnning real short to show results.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:08 am
JFB now you’re repeating what I said, no one knows taht he will do it until he does it. I’m stating what needs to be done IMO now you can agree or not agree his first two years are well documented. Most see no hope I’m saying I disagree……………period

****************
Consistency is something that grows from a pattern of successes. Ford learned that when he returned the investment in him. That’s why JC looks to him. He knows that a lot of balls are thrown into tight windows. Essentially they are “jump” balls with the player with the nastier edge, the stronger will is going to go up and get it. It’s in the bloodlines, and Ford is a bulldog. While DHB is a lapdog.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:13 am
@141, If we evaluated DHB by the same criteria of film study as we did Ford, we’d likely have never taken DHB. But Al and his 40 times….We could have had Hakeem Nicks, but his 4.5 time was too slow.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:19 am
YOU may or may not know this but JFord caught the sam e# of passes that DHB caught last year. Now I would gues that if Ford were in this years draft after what the league saw he would be a 1st rndr, I love the kid. Think the world of him but I don’t think he’s only better than DHB I think he’s better just about every rec we have DHB included. Ford is just special and those who think I’m taking up for DHB are flat out crazy…………..if you say anything positive about this kid you freakin dumbells think someone is making excuses for him. I’m not!!
I’m stating my opinion about where he is as a player, that giving my personal opinion whether you agree or not. No one can make excuses for his first two years. I’m saying I think he has a chance to have a solid year………….period
You don’t have to agree with me, say your peace I have no problem with that.

Would you rather have DHB over Nicks, Maclin, Britt, or Harvin?
May 17th, 2011 at 10:30 am
What I don’t like or put up with in here is if you dissent from the opinion of the masses in here people get upset. As if, why aren’t you saying what the rest of us are saying. You can have an opinion of your own without people taking it persoanlly. There’s only a handful of people in here I agree with on anything.
I don’t follow crowds I follow my own opinion based on my own examination of the facts. The rest of you parrott whatever the rest say so’s you don’t get lambasted. I couldn’t care less in fact I rather enjoy the fact that you don’t agree.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:31 am
It’s a new year, everyone technically has the “chance” at a solid year. But realistically, it will take an improvement of monumental proportions to keep DHB in our starting lineup putting up a handful of catches here and there. As a NFL starting WR, he’s at or near the very bottom of the list in this criteria. He needs to “break out” to just be under-avg.
May 17th, 2011 at 10:31 am

I have alreayd answered that question adnauseum, I would’ve never drafted DHB AT ALL………….period
But that doesn’t preclude me from having an objective opinion of the kid like it does YOU!

Priest,
I don’t think it is in your system to be negative towards an Oakland Raiders player.
I apprecaite the passion you have towards our guys, and your willingness to stick through it all, thick and thin.
But if DHB continues to bust, and is waived and out of the league in a handful of years (hopefully not but could happen) I still don’t think you will ever say, “DHB just sucked and that was an awful draft pick”.
You will still toe the company line, that he just didn’t quite do this or that, and that everyone else thought he was a 1st rounder, and blah blah blah.
I think it is the difference between older and younger Nation members. The Raiders have been a major disappointment my entire life, I’ve never seen them win a Super Bowl, and I honestly don’t think I ever will. So it’s easier for me to revert to what I have seen my whole life, and easier for you to spin me a web about Cliff Branch, who I never saw play.
Make sense?

That is sad JFB, that you didn’t get to see the golden years. As old generation Raider Nation, I can tell you it was something special. But even if the Raiders do win again, it will never be the same. The Raiders of old who would bully and torment the opponent and laugh at them when they were down are long gone. It was another era.

You seem to be circling the wagons with DHB. Why do you do this? For someone you yourself claim we shouldn’t have drafted? Are you on the payroll?

It’s a great day to be a Raiders fan. Isn’t it?!
DHB is far from a bad pick at this point…but he is a dubious one. All he can do is keep getting better — and try to overcome the label that says he can’t catch. I’d argue that.
Throw a catchable ball to DHB 10 times, and I’d bet he catches 7 of them. Whether he’s smoove and natural while doing it is another matter…but, it wouldn’t matter as long as he caught the ball. Can’t develop faith in a guy until you have enough faith to throw to him in the first place…and Jason Campbell’s timing/release difficulties last year hurt DHB’s progress more than we’ll ever know.
By most respected scouts and GM’s, BHP was rated in the top 10 of all WR’s drafted that year. On occasion they’re ALL wrong, but that’s a very rare occasion. There isn’t a respected football man out there who would throw DHB on the discard pile right now.
40 catches this year?? That would be good enough for me…especially if the other WR’s are getting plenty of balls their way…it means the Offense is working.
When he hits his stride (IF he ever hits it), DHB will be a star. And we’ll all be happy we toughed it out with the guy.

DHB still has the “training wheels” on…
May 17th, 2011 at 11:00 am
How old are you Vegas? early 30’s? That’s a shame you didn’t get to see Hendricks, Alzado and the gang in action.
I’m not an oldtimer like Kell or TJ who remember the golden age of the laet sixties and seventies.
I guess I was about 11 or 12 when Kenny King was racing down the sideline carrying that ball like a loaf of bread in SB XV. Watched Marcus dominate. I was a senior when Bo ran over the Boz.
No worries. I think the Raiders could be on the verge of going on a nice lil run like they did in the early nineties under Shell, or 2000’s under Gruden.
Just like under Chuckie they took the step up from the 4-12, 5-11 dregs to 8-8 mediocrity. Now they need to take the next step.
There is some exciting young talent to build on. They aren’t there yet. Like you, I’m concerned about the turnover on the O-line.
All you have to do is get a ticket to the dance, though. Like I said earlier, they have as good as chance as anyone to win the west. Get into the tournement and you’ve got a chance. Who would’ve picked the Cards a few years back? They came awfully close.
The Raiders could be closer to getting back to the show than you think. Next couple of years if they keep drafting well. Wishful thinking, maybe.
We’ll see.

Most NFL catches are caught in traffic…by the guy willing to go get that ball.
Denarius Moore finds a way to get open — even when covered by more than one guy — and he finds a way to come down with the ball.

So, Hayes, are you basically admitting that the college secondaries that big bad Denarius Moore had gone up the middle on aren’t even close to the caliber of secondaries he’ll face in the NFL?

So then, Hayes, why are you basically stating as fact that Moore will be a threat up the middle, and can catch the ball in traffic, when you yourself admit that college secondaries are nowhere near the caliber of NFL secondaries? Shouldn’t you wait until you’ve seen him against a few NFL defenses before you can say for sure that he can go up the middle and catch it in traffic in this league? Do you realize how hard it is to go up the middle in the NFL? Players have had their necks broken.

Hayes if you take the time to explain everything you say you’ll be here to the end of the year an dthey still wont get it.
All you can do is go by what you saw and I saw the same thing. The kid looks like a complete rec’r they relied on him to do a lot. IMO based on his college tape he is the most complete WR we’ve drafted out of these kids we have right now.
But I also saw the same thing in JLH coming out, he caught everything this kids is just bigger.
May 17th, 2011 at 11:41 am
I think DMoore is a very intriguing sounding prospect. I think he’ll push for some playing time as a rookie. Somebody posted a link to his highlights right after the draft. He did indeed fight through double teams to come down with the ball. The SEC is supposed to be the Triple-A of college ball. With the best athletes and best teams.
Here’s Moore’s evaluation from Lindy’s NFL Scout.com draft preview:
Denarius Moore, Tennesee
6-1,195 40 Time:4.49 5th round
Positives: Well rounded prospect. Soft, natural hands, can snatch in traffic, and high points in space. Excellent “trajectory assessment” of thrown ball, especially off-target throws–adjusts his route immediately to the correct course, straight to where the ball will be when it descends. Disciplined route runner. Good effort and technique blocking. Consistant deep threat. Two year starter emerged during fine senior season.
Negatives: Didn’t do much as a kick returner in limited chances. Thin build, not a dominant blocker. While fast and shifty, isn’t elite in either category. Shut down by better competition, although it’s fair to point out the entire Vols offense struggled during his career.
In our view: Moore overcame three different head coaches in three years, as well as terribly inconsistant quarterback play, to establish himself as a legit NFL prospect during his senior year, when he averaged 21 yards per catch. Smooth and NFL ready, Moore projects well as a No. 2 receiver, offering sound route running, consistant hands and proven ability to go deep and make the tough catch.
Like I said right after the draft. He sounds pretty damn good. So how is he a 5th rd pick. Was the talent pool at WR THAT deep? Sounds like the raiders could have another potential steal and Jacoby Ford like prospect on hand. Maybe not as fast. The guy will have to prove it, but sounds promising.
May 17th, 2011 at 11:46 am
He is a more complete rec’r than Ford when the scouts says he runs good routes. That is exzactly what you see on film. He gets open but his QB was a freshman so he didn’t get the ball as much as he should’ve. But that scouting report is exactly what I saw.

The 2 live Stews and Skip Bayless all agreed on ESPN First Take, that they’d like to see The Oakland Raiders on Hard Knocks, now that TB declined.
They weren’t nesc. poking fun, either. They all said especially since Oakland started to “turn it around” last year.
Don’t know that it’ll ever happen, due to AD’s love for secrecy. They did let the cameras in for that feel good story with that lil fella that wanted to tackle McFadden.
So they did open up the veil of secrecy for the cameras. I think it might be wise, and some good PR.
Like Jerry mentioned, it sounds like Hue is going to run a vocal and entertaining training camp (if there is one). They have some exciting young players like Ford and DMac to showcase to the nation.
It’d surprise me if it happened, but I’d love to see it.

Usually a WR is given till his 3rd year to “break out”. If he hasn’t done it by then, the guy is put on the scrap heap with a bunch of other nobodies and never-weres. DHB can’t afford to just have a 40 catch season this year as a starter.

Many think Mr Davis doesn’t want to be exposed he has a say on what will be shown and how far they go. Whatever thye do you’ll rarely ever see him. Mr Davis has ot been one for the spotlight in well over 10 years in fact since he was in LA. You rarely hear from him nor does the media ever see him personally.
He’s always upstairs in his office and rarely comes down only to leave. When he leaves he comes down the back of the facility gets into the car behind a tal gate and is driven home. The only wyab you can see him is go to his office and “Fudge” guards the door like a pit bull. I’ve been trying to get her to take pictures of hos office for me for years. She won’t…
So if they do Hard knocks it’s going to be Hue the coaches and the team because Mr Davis aint gonna have it…………….period
May 17th, 2011 at 12:29 pm
Why would Hue waste snaps and plays on DHB, when guys like Ford and Murphy consistantly perform better?
DHB had his scholarships years, and Hue was putting an end to that at the end of last year. Unless DHB comes out with guns-blazing the beginning of next year, I would expect another 30 catch 400 yard 1 TD season from him.
***
JFB,
what are you talking about? Hue Jackson didn’t bench DHB at the end of last season. DHB started 14 games last year. He missed the Steelers game with a hamstring injury and he didn’t start but played sparingly against Miami the following week (got no catches & 1 reverse) – then DHB started the final 5 weeks
in an interview last season, Hue Jax said that DHB is capable of an 8-catch, 228 yard, 3 TD performance. He said “it’s coming” and dispelled the notion that DHB can’t catch and isn’t doing his job. We didn’t draft any WR’s until Round 5, either. Which means WR is hardly a need. Sanjay Lal was retained and Moore basically just replaces JLH (UFA). Hue said that Ausberry may be a TE
Where do you guys come up with this other stuff?
DHB, Murphy, Ford, Schilens & Moore just have to play better. PERIOD. thats what it boils down to. Nick Miller might be the 6th WR if Ausberry fails to impress or Chaz trips on his own shoelaces again
May 17th, 2011 at 12:32 pm
priest, you want us to believe it will be up to Hue whether or not Hard Knocks is filmed in Oakland? Hilarious. Al Davis would never allow it because he doesn’t want the world to know how chaotic and bizarre the environment is at Raiders’ training camps.
May 17th, 2011 at 12:34 pm
Mr Davis will leave that up to Hue Jackson as far as hardknocks is concerned
***
Hard Knocks = a state of misfortune or affliction; a life of hardship
Wayne Valley and Ed McGah know all about it thanks to Coach Davis!
May 17th, 2011 at 12:36 pm
I hope they don’t try to make Ausberry a TE because I just think he’s got what we neeed as a posession WR I’ve been a hude fan of this kid for a couple of years can hardly believe we have him. He can play he’s not as talented as Moore but the kid is a big physically gifted rec’r capable of making some very tough catches he just needs to be developed I think he can be everything we want Chaz to be.

Yes chad johnson is best option for oakland if they want a vet wr! good post Ray!
May 17th, 2011 at 12:39 pm
Another reason why there will be No Raiders on HardKnocks, Imo, is that the Raiders are totally disdainful on their fans.

will the Raiders reduce Al Saunders’ 600 page playbook to 300 to accommodate Lal & the Raiders young wides?
no OTA’s would be disaster for Oakland. I can’t think of one other team with 4 new starters on the O-Line, 2 new OL coaches, a new HC, a new OC, no QB Coach and a WR Corps whose leading receiver only caught 41 balls

Coach fights. Imagine that, camera cuts to a room, one of the assistants has a cut on his face. People are yelling and cussing, holding people back. Go ahead, bring Hard Knocks to Oakland.

May 17th, 2011 at 12:52 pm
What was Moore’s 40 time ?
Thought I saw it listed as 4.38, but I could be wrong.
If he did run a sub 4.4, isn’t it a bit odd that someone with that speed is branded as a ‘posession’ rcvr ?
One similarity that DHB and Moore share is they both had utter garbage throwing to them in college. Can’t remember the Tenn QB name last year but the guy was horrendous in the few games I watched.
Also, what was Moore’s average YPC, I thought it was very high. Another sign this is not merely a posession rcvr type of pick.
Thanks to anyone that can clarify those numbers.

May 17th, 2011 at 12:59 pm
Bauce,
I’m not sure I’m with ya on the Chad OchoCinco thing, man. A couple of years ago, defenitely. I remember he was on Rome at the SB and was begging to be a Raider. He looked directly into the camera and said..AL, come an get me. Wanna be a Raider. I would’ve been all for it back then. He was a top flight WR, and his antics were fun loving and harmless. I thought his River Dance and some of his TD celebrations were funny.
The Raiders desperately needed a vet WR. Hell, I was even ready to bite the bullet and sign T.O.
Not anymore. Chad has kinda crossed the line, IMO. No longer is it fun loving TD celebrations but moreso Reality TV, tweeting, Media Whore wannabe. I think he’s more interested in being a celebrity than a football player anymore. Just my opinion.
I know Palmer grew disgusted with his antics. And worse, even grumbled about his route running and ad libbing.
I’m not sure Oaklands young, impressionable WR corps needs that circus coming to town. If a vet WR is needed maybe Ocho’s former teammate TH Housh, who’s supposedly not happy with his role in Baltimore.
He also reportedly has a quirky, sometimes sulking personality, but he does do the dirty work over the middle. He might be an option.
More than likely, The Raiders are going to count on this young group to grow up, and step up. Maybe that’s not such a bad idea. My feelings have kinda changed in the past year or so.
May 17th, 2011 at 12:59 pm

The Houston Chronicle’s Richard Justice passes along word that free agent Nnamdi Asomugha “doesn’t want any part” of the Texans.
Justice doesn’t pass along any specifics, but it’s widely believed that Asomugha’s top priorities include playing for a contender. The Texans have that potential, but they’re certainly not there yet. We’ve yet to find anyone covering the Texans who believes owner Bob McNair would be willing to make the high-dollar investment in Asomugha, regardless.

I’m willing to bet you don’t even know what a “bubble economy” is, twocents. And what in the hell is the “Fed Easy Money” policy? Did you just make that up? Spin it all you want, we had a good economy in the late ’90s. Started going to crap the minute Bush took office. Imploded just before Bush left office.

T.J. Housh only started 2 games last year and was active for all 16
only finished with 30 catches for 398 yards & 3 TD’s
He turns 34 years old in September. I’ll still take him as our possession WR over Chaz Schilens. We need a 3rd down chain mover. A big body that isn’t afraid o cross the middle and isn’t made of glass
Houshmandzadeh would be cheap and fits the mold. Plus he’s a West Coast guy (born in Victorville , CA. Played for Barstow HS, Oregon State and the Seahawks in 2009)

My point is that the only thing that props up the ruling elite is public opinion. This is why the Federal Government controls education. This is why every politician must spend millions of dollars to get elected. Our country is awash in propaganda and myth making. It is working. No one wants to examine the myths. They just repeat the slogans.

This “sovereign citizen” concept originated in the Posse Comitatus movement as a teaching of Christian Identity minister William P. Gale. The concept has influenced the tax protester movement, the Christian Patriot movement, and the redemption movement[2]—the last of which includes claims that the U.S. government has enslaved its citizens by using them as collateral against foreign debt. Supporters sell instructions explaining how to “free” oneself by filing particular government forms in a particular order using particular wording.

May 17th, 2011 at 4:45 pm
KoolKell, WTF?
May 17th, 2011 at 4:45 pm
Twocents
The redemption movement consists of supporters of a American conspiracy theory.[1] Redemption theory involves claims that when the U.S. government abandoned the gold standard in 1933, it pledged its citizens as collateral so it could borrow money. The movement also asserts that common citizens can gain access to funds in secret accounts using obscure procedures and regulations.

KoolKell, I don’t know anything about that.
But the part about the American citizens being responsible for the debt that the government runs up in its name makes some sense.
May 17th, 2011 at 4:51 pm
RaidingTexas, my point is, it’s become a new trend in America for people to say they’re “independent”, just because they’re not a party line Democrat or Republican. No book you recommend to me is going to convince me that they’re not anything short of delusional fools.

Filibuster To Protect Big Oil Welfare Fueled By Oil Money
Tonight, Republicans filibustered the majority’s attempt to repeal $21 billion in subsidies for the big five oil companies — the same companies that made over $30 billion in profits in just the first three months of 2011. While three out of four Americans believe Exxon Mobil and the other oil majors should pay their fair share, instead of receiving taxpayer welfare, the oil-friendly Senate split 52 to 48 to end the subsidies. Though the majority of the Senate voted to repeal these oil tax breaks, the procedural motion required a 60 vote threshold. An analysis of campaign contribution records shows the gusher of dirty cash that fueled the filibuster:

good point RAIDER. And sadly some fans think that we’re going to improve simply because we promoted our O-coordinator to coach.
QB talent – subpar
OL talent – subpar and possibly terrible.
WR talent – terrible (honestly, compare it)
LB talent – subpar
DB talent – subpar to terrible without Aso and Huff.
2011 opponents – Packers, Jets, Bears, Pats, Vikings, Dolphins, Texans.
Count on at LEAST 5 losses just right there.
QB – managed to beat San Diego and Denver twice (Gruden didnt even do that)
OL – terrible yet managed to manhandle S.D.’s top ranked defense
WR – agree, somehow they catch and score TDs no worse than Jacksonville and a number of other 8-8, 7-9 teams
LB – best in years to be honest
DB – agree, yet they picked and forced turnovers off Rivers (one of the best QB), etc.
compounding this is every team is handicapped due to the longer offseason and having to develop rookies, new FAs, etc. – will there even be a season?
lets wait for the pre-season to get a feel for how the team develops. Im not myopic, but the key is CAN THE WIN IN NOVEMBER and stay near .500

When Amy Trask, chief executive of the Oakland Raiders, gathered the entire staff for a meeting at team headquarters on the night the NFL lockout began on March 11 to outline plans for dealing with the work stoppage, apprehension loomed.
Last week, the Miami Dolphins had a similar meeting and announced that effective immediately, salaries for all employees would be cut from 10% to 20%.
The Raiders, though, unveiled details of an incentive plan requiring that team employees sell new season tickets that totaled at least 10% of their salaries during the length of a lockout. This, in lieu of salary cutbacks or furloughs.
“It was like Christmas,” Raiders defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan recalled this week of the reaction at the meeting. “And with a big sigh of relief.”
Bresnahan returned for a second stint with the Raiders this year, having spent the past seven years with other teams — including the last two seasons with the United Football League’s Florida Tuskers.
Although he hasn’t closed a sale, he doesn’t sound worried about reaching his quota.
“I’ve got to sell millionaires in a room every day to run and crash heads,” he says, referring to the players he coaches during normal times. “So this is easy.”
Still, the added task of mining community events and knocking on the doors of corporations is quite a departure. All team staffers, from secretaries to equipment managers to executives, must effectively join the team’s sales staff.
“I understand that some clubs are taking different approaches,” says Trask, mindful that about one-third of the NFL’s teams have cutbacks for team staffers, including furloughs and salary reductions. “(But) a very strong argument can be made that this is something that staff members of every team should be doing all the time.”
Not every team has the tickets to sell like the Raiders, who averaged an NFL-low attendance of 46,431 for home games last season. They’ve had just two home sellouts the last two years, and since the franchise moved from back from Los Angeles in 1995 have had 83 of 129 home games blacked out.
And it’s a tougher sell with a harsh economy converging with the uncertainty of the NFL’s labor dispute. Furthermore, the Raiders, who snapped a string of seven consecutive losing seasons with an 8-8 finish in 2010, play at one of the NFL’s most antiquated venues, Oakland Coliseum.
“Most of the people I’ve encountered have been understanding,” Bresnahan says. “I think the public looks at us as caught in the middle. The hardest thing is looking someone in the eye during this economy. But on the other hand, people really want football.”
Trask acknowledges that some employees might not be thrilled about “The 2011 Plan,” as it is called, but she suspects the percentage of “intimidated” staffers is low. She says one assistant coach closed a sale on 10 club seats on the first day and that camaraderie between different departments within the organization has improved.
The target amount for each employee will depend on the length of the lockout. Through two months, an employee paid, for instance, $10,000, would have to sell $1,000 in new season tickets — payable one week before the regular-season opener.
Refunds will be issued if payments are made for games lost to the work stoppage.
“Everybody’s trying to get creative in their own way,” says Bresnahan, who was defensive coordinator when the Raiders won three consecutive AFC West titles from 2000 to 2002 and advanced to Super Bowl XXXVII. “I know I’ve got something to talk about at every establishment I set foot in — every restaurant, every store, every winery.”
But he can’t wait until the labor issue is resolved, and the return to his full-time job — football. Says Bresnahan: “We’re drooling for that.”
