Instant free for all in free agency?
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Sunday, July 24th, 2011 at 10:15 pm in Oakland Raiders.
A post on Profootballtalk.com refers to an e-mail from Saints quarterback Drew Brees which says free agency will be an instant free-for-all starting on Tuesday, rather than the 72-hour window previously reported for teams to sign their own players.
With regard to the Raiders, that means any team could swoop in with an offer for tight end Zach Miller and give Oakland no room to counter the offer. Of course, Miller may have already had productive talks with the Raiders before the lockout. But it does bring with it at least some degree of uncertainty.
Much of the NFL personnel business won’t be sorted out for a couple of weeks after the rules are made clear.
NOTE: As Steve Corkran noted earlier, the powers that be have had us swap positions. He’ll be doing most of the blogging, I’ll be doing most of the Raiders stuff for print.
In terms of this space, not much should change. We’ve been collaborating for awhile now, and if you’ve noticed the number of “Steve Corkran reported” references over the years, the only difference is you won’t have to wait for him to tell me. He’ll simply tell you himself.
If all goes according to plan, I’ll fill in for him on occasion on the blog and he’ll do the same for me in print.

Congrats Steve and Jerry on new posts.
I like what you have planned Steve, when it comes to taking questions from us and asking the players or coaches. That will be important.
July 24th, 2011 at 11:40 pm
Raiders better be prepared to pay Miller and Bush. If we lose those two AND Nnamdi??
Oh Oh….not good!
July 24th, 2011 at 11:50 pm
Bushes agent says he won’t be an UFA but will be a RFA.He isn’t going anywhere if the old man wants him.
July 24th, 2011 at 11:59 pm
Priest,if we don’t sign any FA Olinemen,who do you believe are the best prospects for the open slots assuming Veldheer=LT,Carlisle=LG and Wiz=C?If BC is moved back to tackle does that mean the team feels they have a young G on the roster who can step in?If Henderson is resigned should we try him at G or does he compete for the RT job?So many questions,I’m getting antsy.
July 25th, 2011 at 12:15 am
Rip Skip Thomas, the most physical corner I’ve ever seen.
———————————————-
On another note, Maybe Jerry can be more reporter than bootlicker now. It’s gotta be tough on journalist’s whose livelihood depends on Raider access.
July 25th, 2011 at 12:17 am
lefty u see that bullsh!t the A’s pulled this weekend? glad i didnt watch it cuz it wasnt pretty. got home late friday night and saw the score. dont know whats up with cahill now.
July 25th, 2011 at 12:17 am
skip thomas died?
July 25th, 2011 at 12:33 am
Al hasn’t paid real money for a free agent since the spending spree of ‘02. Since then he’s just given back loaded contracts to washed up players, or players that were never good in the first place; contracts that looked lucrative in the headlines. I wouldn’t count on the Raiders to be a factor in free agency, this year or any year, as long as Al’s in charge. Unless you think Javon Walker and Gibril Wilson panned out well.
July 25th, 2011 at 12:38 am
I have a vhs copy of SB 11. During the game, when they’re showing the players profiles right after plays they’re involved in, they show one of Skip, where he looks like Dru Down, just pimped out, long hair braided into pony tail, head tilted to the side with a mean mug. Only thing missing was the thizz face. This was 1977. Don Meridith then says, “Skip doesn’t like having pictures taken of him. Says whenever someone takes his picture, they take a piece of his soul”.
RIP, Alonzo “Skip” Thomas
July 25th, 2011 at 12:43 am
RIP Mr. Thomas
July 25th, 2011 at 12:56 am
RIP SkipThomas-link please.
July 25th, 2011 at 12:58 am
Armond,I suffer and watched most of the weekend although I had to turn it off Friday night and late in the game today-too agonizing.
July 25th, 2011 at 1:40 am
Lefty12 I see Henderson as a key figure on this line, I see him as a OT who has the ability to play G and do it very well. I think he is a natural OT but G is an easy switch due to the fact the you are covered. The opposite is very difficult. See Robert Gallery!!
Hendu gives us great size at G with very good atheticism. I’m hoping we play Wiz and Hendu at G’s Veldheer and Campbell at OT’s and Satele stays at C. I just think we get it going faster that way if they want to make changes later fine. But to start the season I think we’re more settled if we go that route. It seems tey want BCampbell at OT so RT is perfect for him. I think trhat gives us more guys at positions where they are comfortable than putting guys at new positions and hoping it works.
July 25th, 2011 at 1:43 am
I’m watching the SD game agaiin and it drives me freakin crazy how our WR will not come back to the ball. They always allow the DB to get his hands on the ball becuase they wont comeback and finish the route. I can’t tell ya’ how many drives were stopped due to this lack awareness. All they hav eto do is FINISH the DAMN ROUTE and the play is an easy completion. These guys just have to grow the hell up quick and this offense can really take off.
July 25th, 2011 at 1:46 am
Especially Murphy and DHB…………get it together fellas!!!
It’s the small things that are killing us..

Is Mario Henderson even an option to come back?
Supposedly he turned down the Raiders contract offer before the lockout.
Never liked that guy anyways. How are you going to build a bully, with a finesse tackle like him, who looks like he wants to cry in the locker room after every bad game?
July 25th, 2011 at 5:50 am
Great job all these years, Jerry.
For a die-hard Raider fan from New York, your blog has been a god-send. I almost feel like I know you.
I’ll gladly keep reading your newspaper stuff. As a newspaper guy myself, I still prefer longer, more in-depth coverage. Go get ‘em.

July 25th, 2011 at 7:29 am
So the owners were right on Thursday when they said we have an agreement and the players balked an cried FOUL!
The players said they are trying to sneak things past us. What they had done was work out a revenue sharing plan between the owners that had nothing to do with the players.
so all the crybabies can shut up put their pacifiers back in their mouths and sign the damn deal the get to work.
I am so glad the CRYING GAME is over and the real games can start.
July 25th, 2011 at 7:31 am
Breaking News:
The Oakland Raiders have jumped feet first into the 2011 free agent frenzy by signing WR Randy Moss to a 5 year $52.8 million dollar deal; RB Tiki Barber to a 4 year, $34.7 million dollar deal; QB Drew Stanton to a 7 year, $28.1 million dollar deal; and LB Ernie Sims to a 5 year, $16.9 million dollar deal. All contracts were fully guaranteed.
July 25th, 2011 at 7:32 am
Now that the players got what they want (a softer training camp workout schedule) we can see who the soft ones are because they will be injured first.
Which team has the most cry babies or out shape players that will get hurt before the season starts?
I am guessing the Bronc-hoes
July 25th, 2011 at 7:34 am
Dakota you left out the Jeff George deal?
2 years 2.2 million just to hold JC balls for him during practice.

Sign two of them and our season will be saved. If you go with Veldheer, Loper, Rookie, Campbell & Rookie as our o-line don’t blame Hue for the 5-11 season!

It’s a bit of a surprise and a bummer that Jerry is moving on to print. His blog entries seemed to give Raider Nation a more up-to-the-minute feel of day to day activities. I think he did a great job with it, and though he was reluctant to admit it, he seemed to read the comments section as inspiration for future blog entries. He did a good job of feeling the pulse of the ‘nation’.
One thing I’ll miss from Jerry is his sincerity of opinion on the Raiders, whether it blasted Al Davis or praised him. What I won’t miss is his repeated allegations that he was not a fan of the team. How could you follow a team and not inwardly get excited when they win? It seemed disingenuous. Why bother to write about something that takes up your entire work-life and have no passion about it. I never bought that.
I don’t know much about Corkran, but what I have seen is that he’s not really 100% behind the Raiders like Jerry was in terms of reporting. I hate that he still devotes a percentage of his time to the 49ers. I hope that changes.
Good Luck Jerry, we will miss you.
I’m sure that there is an interesting story behind this shuffling of Jerry and Corkran, and that we will probably never hear the details.

July 25th, 2011 at 8:21 am
Michael Huff, safety
It’s should be a red flag when a player’s best season occurs in his contract year. You never know if you’ll get that production again, and, in Huff’s case, it’s hard to determine if his 2010 campaign is a sign of an improving game or a fluke from underachieving player.
While scouts and coaches are often willing to gamble on potential, Huff’s scattershot play makes him one of the biggest risks on the open market.

Raiders to open camp Wednesday – NFLN
July 25th, 2011 at 8:28 am
I’m hoping we’re under the cap limit and have some room for some FA depth!
I got a question for the older cats in here. I was watching the Ghost to the post playoff game against the Balt. Colts yesterday and i was wondering if the rb Clarence Davis had questionable hands his whole career? I know he fumbled once in that game and seems he bobbled the damn ball a lot that game.
Also i couldn’t believe the obvious late hits out of bounds and facemasks that were never called! ha ha Times have changed!
July 25th, 2011 at 8:29 am
“I’m sure that there is an interesting story behind this shuffling of Jerry and Corkran, and that we will probably never hear the details.”
Let me guess how it went down:
Steve….Jerry you sure do have a nice following on your Raiders Blog?
Jerry….Yes I do however some of them are misguided degenerate trolls with nothing better to do all day than argue amongst themselves over trivial political BS.
Steve….yes I see that, but your web hits are great and it would appear that you have a loyal following.
Jerry…..I do enjoy it sometimes but then I get 100 emails a day from some psychopath named KK and I feel like I am being stalked. Not to mention the other psychotic emails I get daily from unemployed losers and basement dwellers with crazy names like Brownstains!
Steve….Let me have a stab at it I carry mace and have a concealed weapons permit I am not afraid of some cracked out wanna be real estate agent or some kid that lives behind his moms skirt.
Jerry…..Sure lets make a trade but I also get your press pass for Raiders games.
Steve….Deal!
Jerry….Now how do we spin this so we don’t lose any web hits?
July 25th, 2011 at 8:33 am
Shots fired…
July 25th, 2011 at 8:40 am
from Alex Marvez of Fox Sports:
Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor’s journey to the NFL might take longer than expected.
Not only has the NFL yet to schedule a supplemental draft for the 2011 season, but Pryor might not qualify if there is one despite having announced plans to enter after leaving Ohio State in early June.
“If there are no players eligible for a supplemental draft, there is no supplemental draft,” NFL spokesman Greg Aiello wrote in an email to FOXSports.com on Sunday. “It is for players whose circumstances have changed in an unforeseen way after the regular (college) draft. It is not a mechanism for simply bypassing the regular (draft).”
Aiello cited examples of “unforeseen” changes as players who were kicked off their college teams, declared academically ineligible or graduated and then decided to leave school. Pryor doesn’t qualify on any of those fronts.
Although engulfed in a payola scandal that also involved some teammates, Pryor’s eligibility status at Ohio State hadn’t recently changed at the time of his departure.
Pryor could have turned pro before April’s draft but instead accepted a suspension for the first five games of the 2011 season from then-coach Jim Tressel. Pryor left Ohio State shortly after a disgraced Tressel announced his resignation under fire from the NCAA.

If the reports are correct about when free agency begins etc, then the Raiders are severely hamstrung by having an Octogenarian GM with no underling who can take over a portion of the upcoming work that will need to be done.
No way Al Davis can handle re-signing players, signing draft picks and signing free agents all at the same time. Other franchises have underlings that can help with that work. Who is going to help Al? Herrera?

Palmer will retire if he is not traded and he has made enough money already, those are his words by the way.
I think he will play for a very small salary because of this and should be on Al’s radar if you ask me.

Since Jerry is gone will you go back to your OakGlen handle or stay on this one ?

Lol That’s all right 666! Cinci has some real issues over there. I would love Palmer, but would he be cool backing up JC this year?

No sign of KK the clown since he took that beating last week? Or maybe Jerry is no longer paying him a penny per post?

Cincy will probably trade Carson Palmer to Miami in exchange for Chad Henne & Ronnie Brown.
Then trade Chad Johnson to Washington in exchange for a 2nd rounder
Washington will dump Fat Albert & Donovan McNabb and make Nnamdi Asomugha the highest paid defensive player in the league …

Watch out for Tampa. I heard on local radio this morning that they are $40M under the cap, and this year with the proviso that teams have to spend 99% cash toward the cap, I think they go after Nnamdi in a big way.

the Raiders will make a few early moves in free agency, re-signing their own players.
Then wait until the frenzy dies down and try to find diamonds in the trash heap. That’s been our MO the past 3-4 years, hasn’t it?
Terrell Owens (if Al wants him) will be a second tier FA – signed after the 2nd preseason game

********
Only problem with that MO is this is no typical FA period. The pressure to get a team solidified early on to get a jump on the competition is going to make the first few days of free agency a circus with many bad contracts. The shelf will be bare before they play the first preseason game, I predict.
July 25th, 2011 at 9:26 am
I doubt the switch up here has anything to do with Raider reporting in an of itself. lol. My goodness. You guys take this all so seriously. It’s all about money, business. Not who’s a more accurate Raider reporter. It also has nothing to do with who gets more favorable comments. Are you kidding? They could create screen names themselves and give themselves favorable comments if that helped them advance their careers. No, it’s all about web hits and generating advertising dollars. Nothing else matters. This blog has NOTHING to do with the Raiders or football from a business standpoint. It only exists to generate advertising dollars.

Agree that this site is generating cash through advertising, and that’s its main function. But many of the fans hit on this site to get the up-to-the-minute information that most other teams don’t have. At least not the way Jerry presents it. If Jerry needed a break from the demands of the semi-pro’s and wanted to get away from the some of the dysfunctional posters, that’s fine.
It still doesn’t completely explain why leave this blog after all these years? You laugh at Raider fans for taking the Raiders seriously. Now seriously, isn’t that what fans do? Serious ones anyway.
I don’t see the motivation by either party to swap roles. Corkran really isn’t invested in the Raiders, and I always felt that Jerry was. Did either get a bump or dip in pay? Did one get less or more priviledges? Is the Raiders blogosphere just a hot potato that nobody wants?
July 25th, 2011 at 9:37 am
If anybody is going to replace Jerry Mac, I’m glad it’s Steve Corkran – that guy is ALWAYS on top of his game!

Jerry is not a Raiders fan and neither is Corkran.
Nothing to see here people now move along.
July 25th, 2011 at 9:43 am
Guest, this move has NOTHING to do with fan fare, absolutely nothing. If it did, their writers would just register hundreds of screen names on their own, and give themselves positive comments on their “great reporting”. lol. Come on. It’s all about generating ad dollars. And, advertisers dont’ to by the content of comments. They go by web hits and other ways of gauging how many sets of eye balls hit this site per day. And, I wasn’t laughing at Raider fans in general. I was laughing at Raider fans who take local reporting on the Raiders so seriously, as if it has anything to do with the Raiders winning or losing.

Jerry has also said many times during live chat that the only team he is truly interested in is his sons baseball team.
I think he is more neutral now because of his duties than he may was as a youth, just guessing.

Welcome to the Nation, Steve!!!
July 25th, 2011 at 9:53 am
“so i say why not bring him in.”
Because he is a ME guy not a TEAM guy. The guy historically has done anything he can to see his name in print weather or not it is detrimental to the team.
He is self motivated and if we brought in a veteran WR it would be to mentor the new guys. You don’t want a ME guy mentoring the new guys.
However Sanjay Lal is not going to cut it we do need a veteran WR but in all seriousness Al Davis thinks he is set at WR so I doubt we will see any deals in FA for WR’s.
July 25th, 2011 at 9:54 am
Fk Chad Johnson. I’d rather sign Plaxico.
July 25th, 2011 at 9:54 am
So, if Zach Miller goes to the AZ Cards (home) … does David Ausberry get to compete at TE or do we execute Jhill’s plan to convert Marcel Reece to TE and sign a BLOCKING fullback?
July 25th, 2011 at 9:56 am
Dakota made a great post earlier about our ability to compete during this free agency frenzy that is about to start.
So many teams have several front office people in place to help deal with signing players and we have one guy. Our one guy has to sign the draft picks resign the UFA’s and shop for FA’s. By teh way our one guy is 81 years old.

Not via trade. I wouldn’t be surprised if we landed Burress, Housh or Owens though

July 25th, 2011 at 9:59 am
I think we should be pushing hard to sign Miller! He’s be the 1st to sign imo. The pass game sucks as it is, why let our leading rec bounce? Led the team with the most receptions, td’s and yards.

You make solid points here, but I’d like the blog writer to be writing with a Raider bias, even if that’s probably shoddy journalism. As a fan, it placates my own interest. I know it’s not realistic, but who said semi-pros have to be realistic? I just want the Raider dope.

I see Corkran as a major improvement.
At least Steve takes a moment to proof read his posts.
Hard for me to believe all the typos, mistakes and unreadable sentences that appeared all too frequently in Jerry’s entries.
Jerry’s new editor will have his work cut out for him.
I exchanged e-mails with Steve once, several years ago. He’s a true professional and a damned good reporter.
Good luck, Jerry. Welcome aboard, Steve.

Since this is a new CBA, they should have provided a one-time pay all debts and get-out-of-cap-hell-free card. Allow the owners to pay off all dead weight contracts in a lump sum and not count against this or future caps. That seems only fair.
July 25th, 2011 at 10:13 am
No wonder the Raiders abstained from the CBA vote….Al knew we would be screwed with the $120 million dollar salary cap. I think Al is still paying dead money payouts to Marcus Allen, Howie Long and Rich Gannon.

July 25th, 2011 at 10:19 am
It does say a lot about the state of the Raiders. This was once a place that other teams players would stop by the sidelines in the hopes that they could one day be a Raider. Now it’s a place where you have to bribe players to come.

I can’t wait to see this kid Taiwan Jones up close and personal. I think Denarius Moore could be pretty good early. And I want to see how quickly David Ausberry can make the switch to TE.
July 25th, 2011 at 10:21 am
Wake up, Al.
Time to go to work.
Get Vince Young on the line.
Make a pre-emptive trade with Tennessee if you have to.
Offer them a 6th or 7th rd pick for VY’s rights, before they release him. That’ll ensure he’ll be a Raider and keep you out of a bidding war.
VY will be glad to come. Knows he will beat out JaJason with ease.
Get busy, Al. You’ve got a prime opportunity to prevent JaJason from torpedoing the 2011 season and saving Raider fans from having to endure more games like SF, Pitt and Tenn.
Get busy, Al.

Key Free Agents: Nnamdi Asamogha, Zach Miller, Michael Huff, Robert Gallery, Mario Henderson, Michael Bush (RFA), John Henderson, Marcel Reese, Kamerion Wimbley (Franchised)
July 25th, 2011 at 10:35 am
Adios to Nnamdi Asoumugha, it was great having him and seeing him develop into the best CB in the game and into a solid person as well!
He will be missed and he will always be a Raider!

Dakota how is the weather?
Cause it sounds like you could use a nice cool glass of the Kool-Aid.
July 25th, 2011 at 10:35 am
Hindsight is 20/20 on some of those guys. Jacheeseburger was suppose to be our QB for the next ten years, little did we know we were just going to be paying him for 10 years.
I’m an Iowa boy and really wanted Gallery to be a monster. That just didn’t work out either, but it was the general consenses that he would be huge in the NFL. When he was just huge.
July 25th, 2011 at 10:36 am
Finally the Players have agreed to the deal. Presser upcoming maybe 3pm…

Jhill,
Thanks for pointing out those sites. I just don’t know. I am more inclined to trust John Clayton than either of the authors of those web sites….but I hope they are right…..then we have money to throw at every free agent. I just can’t imagine those numbers are true.

I would guess this is whats happening right now in the Raiders front office.
How do we keep Zach miller and Bush.
How can we restructure the contracts of Wimbly and DHB and a few others to make room for FA’s or rookies.
Can we afford to make an offer to any free agents because of our current cap restraints.
I would guess that Al has already prepared contracts for his draft picks and has been in contact with their agents.
Huff = gone
Gallery = gone
Looking for an experienced backup QB at a low cost.
Who will change KK’s adult diapers now that Jerry has retired?

July 25th, 2011 at 10:45 am
************Just thinking about free agency***********
We need more o-line help.
We can not loose Zach Miller or our offense is toast. Our passing game is to weak to lose our most productive WR who happens to be our tightend.
I would keep Zach over Mike Bush.
If I keep Nam I do. If not, I draft the best corner left standing and make salary cap room for next year.

If there is no supplemental draft, will someone like Pryor go in the league as a rookie FA? Or is it that he will have to sit out a year like Big Mike WIlliams?
July 25th, 2011 at 10:48 am
I was a bit surprised too, Dakota.
But who are we really paying dead money too?
JaMarcus was cut with little to no cap ramifications. I’m sure of that.
We can’t possibly still have cap $ tied to Walker. How long ago was that?
Same with Meangelo.
Sounds good to say we have dead money tied to those guys, but where’s the proof?
Propoganda I say!
July 25th, 2011 at 10:48 am
Thanks for the info BigTed…
July 25th, 2011 at 10:51 am
Jhill,
I think those sites you previously referenced regarding the salary cap used the below article to base their numbers on…..said article was written on February 7th….prior to the Seymour, Wimble, Routt etc last second deals. I don’t think the $85 million dollar number is accurate, or even anywhere near accurate.
http://espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/37327/looking-at-2011-salary-cap-figures
July 25th, 2011 at 10:51 am
“If there is no supplemental draft, will someone like Pryor go in the league as a rookie FA?”
Pryor is not eligible for the supplemental draft. He does not qualify so he will be a walk on if he wants to play this year or he will sit and work on being eligible for next years draft.
July 25th, 2011 at 10:52 am
Today, the NFL will publish a Free Agency List.
On Tuesday, team facilities will open for voluntary training, conditioning, and classroom instruction.
On Tuesday, trades can begin.
At 10:00 a.m. ET on Tuesday, teams may sign drafted rookies, undrafted rookies, and negotiate with (but not sign) their own unrestricted free agents, restricted free agents, exclusive-rights players, and franchise players.
Also, beginning at 10:00 a.m. ET on Tuesday, teams may negotiate with, but not sign or give offer sheets to, other team’s unrestricted free agents, restricted free agents, and franchise players.
At 4:01 p.m. ET on Thursday, teams may waive or terminate player contracts.
At 6:00 p.m. ET on Friday, teams may renegotiate existing player contracts.
Also at 6:00 p.m. ET on Friday, teams sign their own unrestricted free agents, restricted free agents, exclusive-rights free agents, and franchise players.
Also at 6:00 p.m. ET on Friday, teams may sign unrestricted free agents from other teams, restricted free agents from other teams, and franchise players from other teams.
No payment of any kind can be made to any player until the CBA has been ratified by the players.
The 2011 league year will begin no later than August 4. When the 2011 league year begins, teams must be under the salary cap. (Specifically, their highest 51 cap numbers must fit under the cap.)
Thus, look for some teams to possibly go over the projected cap this week, and then to find a way to get under the cap before the official start of the league year.

Either way, Al should be making a move.

He isn’t eligible to be a “walk-on” this year. He won’t be allowed to play in 2011. He will be eligible for the 2012 draft. All this, assuming there is no supplemental.

Knowing the mediots, it’s probably somewhere right in the middle.
I’m just asking for some definitive examples of who we could be paying dead $ too. Prior to the signings in Feb, there were HUGE $s coming off the books due to contracts expiring.
Our most expensive guys (Seymour, Nnamdi, Huff, Gallery, and Routt, CJ37, Howard, Miller) ALL had their contracts expire. If you want to talk about pre signings, I have a hard time believing we were at 85 million BEFORE resigning these guys.

Raiders need to figure out who there QB of the future is going to be also.

Barkley
Jones
Lindley
would all be great picks for the Raiders.
