Miller tells how he became a Seahawk
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011 at 4:10 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Based on a phone interview I had with Zach Miller, it sounds like the Raiders coaching staff and teammates were reaching out in a way owner Al Davis did not.
Bottom line is the Raiders took care of the unrestricted free agents Davis thought most important and showed them the (guaranteed) money _ Kamerion Wimbley ($29 million), Richard Seymour ($22.5 million) and Stanford Routt ($20 million). Miller got $17 millon guaranteed from Seattle, so it’s safe to assume Oakland was offering less.
Some of Miller’s thoughts:
–“Coach (Tom) Cable gave me a call Saturday morning and saw I wasn’t signed yet, kind of feeling the Raiders would have done it by then. He said, `We want you here and I’m going to make a push to get you here.’
“I took a visit, and my wife and I just loved it. I’m still kind of blown away about what an an amazing place it is and we feel it’s the best fit.”
– “Football’s a business and I know that first-hand. When I was going into the last year of my rookie deal I was hoping to get extended and get a long term contract and it didn’t happen. Then the season ended and was expecting a deal and it didn’t happen, either.
“Throughout the process I was expecting it and it just never happened. I thought I’d get an extension and it never materialized.”
In the end, it didn’t matter how many times Hue Jackson, tight ends coach Adam Henry or teammates called to tell Miller how much he was wanted. Davis simply was not going to pay a tight end the same kind of money he was for a pass rusher, an established potential Hall of Fame defensive tackle and a speedy cornerback.
And Miller and the two best hands in the organization are now in Seattle.

Al Davis is a goat, straight up. How do you let your best reciever walk the last few years? I know, Al is working with feelings like a woman. When he let Cable go alot of players were upset, Miller being one of them. Al is a piece of sh$%>
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:15 pm
Enjoy the rain Zach. Maybe Cable can get you a cameo in that new 3 Stooges movie he’s in. Hasta La Crotch, SuckHawk.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:15 pm
This is the worst move of the offseason. Losing Nnamdi wont be as bad as this.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:15 pm
We havent done crap this free agency. Status quo will not get us to the playoffs
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:15 pm
now looks like our check downs are gonna be to the rbs allday
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:16 pm
Jerry Mac obviously has a huge man crush on Zach, Ausberry a beter receiver Gordon a better blocker and hopefully saves us $ for another FA or 2
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:17 pm
Ooooh. he didn’t feel wanted and his wife prefers Seattle. Cable expressed his love and explained to him that because his wife will be so happy in Seattle that she won’t suspect the hookers when on the road.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:17 pm
JC NEEDS (NEEDED) ZMiller for the checkdown, NOW WHAT? We are in trouble. Turn Reece to TE.
Al, get Favre in here, RIGHT NOW. He can but the ball up for grabs just as good as anybody. Way to go hererra, losin Miller like that. WTF ARE YOU THINKIN?
And dont expect Bush back either. RFA or not. WTF!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:18 pm
NO MOSS JUST BOSS
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:19 pm
ausberry a better receiver? a guy who has never played in the nfl is better than a proven commodity? wow. a true raiders fan speaks.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:19 pm
I agree with you # 9. I better see Michael Bush signed soon or I give up on the brittle, old Managing GM in 2011. Kevin Boss may make me think twice about losing Zach Miller. Get on the phone and get a veteran TE, Davis!!!!!!!!!!!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:19 pm
Al was negotiating a deal…. with Todd Christensen. Todd kept telling Al “my names not Zach”
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:20 pm
Thing is with Miller leaving maybe we can go out and make a push to get a vet OL, and drop a doodie bomb on the 9ers and get Goldson. Like the people in Georgia said bout the leprechaun, I just want the Gold man.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:21 pm
Malcolm Floyd and Kevin Boss sounds like money better spent.
Maybe even be cheaper. Not sure what Boss is looking to make.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:21 pm
RAIDERS OAKLAND RAIDERS
The Oakland Raiders have signed free agent offensive linemen Justin Smiley, Stephon Heyer and Seth Wand.

saw him at SC and I am a true Raider fan not crying like a schoolgirl because we lost a player or two. I’m a Raider fan and I’ma still watch and still go to the games no matter who walks on us
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:22 pm
Don’t know how to feel…I know most out there say if he didn’t want to be a Raider than fugg him and go play somewhere else, I get down with that. Especially when he joined those other bums Cable & Gallery – they are the ones acting like beeyotches, not Davis.
But damn, where is our safety valve? I know he wasn’t the fastest and certainly wasn’t the best blocker but he’s the only one catching balls beside V12 last year & he was the only one the two years before that. Definitely have to get a TE to fill in b/c Ausberry is unproven.
Sign Bush, he’s been a workhorse and hits the hole hard, we need to keep that thunder & lightning thing going.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:23 pm
JerryMac,
Your bitterness on being replaced by Steve is showing. I quess no road games for you.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:23 pm
And dont expect Bush back either. RFA or not. WTF!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^6
you apparently arent aware of how the tender system works. If Bush leaves, we get a first and third round pick. Ill take that all day long for a backup running back
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:23 pm
How can we get any legit FAs’ when we cant even keep our own? Damn. RFA or not, Bush aint coming back.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:25 pm
By the way peeps, the worst GM in the NFL is Mike Brown. Not even close.

August 2nd, 2011 at 4:25 pm
Davis just kicked the crutch out from under Jason Campbell and the wide recievers. He was reliable enough that JC started looking to him first maybe? Time for the QB and WR corps to get the job done.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:25 pm
Look fellas we all know this is a business. I hate the thought of loosing Miller and would have bet you a good bit of coin yesterday it wouldn’t happen. But you have to beleive the team looked at their position (i.e. other potential alternatives)and the cost to keep him and decided they would go another way. Let’s don’t light the fire around the stake just yet. If after week 4 we are missing Miller….. I’ll be the first one with the lighter fluid. Sigh……
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:26 pm
Kevin Boss’s numbers over the past 2 years are not that much different. Being from NJ, I’m forced alot of Giants stuff. I think he is and will be better option then Zack was. Plus he’s not an injury away from being out. Plus Boss is faster, and is a great blocker.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:26 pm
– “Football’s a business and I know that first-hand. When I was going into the last year of my rookie deal I was hoping to get extended and get a long term contract and it didn’t happen. Then the season ended and was expecting a deal and it didn’t happen, either.

Then it just looks like Al did not want to do any business with you. That is just good business for Al. Huh?

Bush has no choice but to come back. New anti-holdout rule says if you hold out past August 9th you dont get the accredited year towards free agency. He will be an RFA again next year. NO TEAM in the NFL will give up 1st and 3rd round compensation for a back up running back
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:27 pm
Heres why Miller became a Seahawk…or at least an interesting theory. Also helps explain why Aso had to go.
very intersting…

I hope I am wrong about Bush. But one has to winder what he thinks.. What is Al thinking? what doe hererra think of? Whats Amy doin? Where have we improved? JC has to be concerned. Miller may be this and that, but he has good hands.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:30 pm
If Al Davis signed Zach to $7mil/yr and $17mil guaranteed, you’d be calling him crazy and how can you overpay a TE for crisssakes!
Get Boss and Malcolm Floyd and watch the offense be UNSTOPPABLE like in the Gannon/TimmyB/JRice/Wheatley/Garner/JPorter days. You simply can’t cover them all!!!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:30 pm
Wish we would have got Namdi And Miller back but it is what it is. If i recall it was the D line causing havoc and RUN DMC with a little bit of Ford winning us games last year.

If they are still available on the last day of the sale so to speak. Still on the shelf Al get get a bargain basement steal. But they gotta be left out there and no one else has to want them.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:32 pm
WHO FUGGING CARES. I honestly though want to no and here what al is up to what his mind set is. Is he running this team is he making choices for this team. What honestly can a 80 yr old man do are think does he think. Does anyone no where the he!! Davis is someone anyone.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:32 pm
Boss,grimes,waters?
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:32 pm
Als’ got Hue Jackson. He dont need any FAs’ and he can let his best guys walk. YEAH!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:33 pm
Come on guys, seriously. Miller is gone – for 5 years 35 mill, 17 guaranteed. No way we need to pay that for 5 TD’s a year. Pass catching TE’s are all over the place for half that if not less. It’s all about scheme – as long as they have good hands and can find open space in defenses, they are all damn near equal outside of Witten and Gates. ZM was a good Raider but it’s time to move on — Zach didn’t win us 1 game single handedly. Damn.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:34 pm
hererra is probably running the show. just has to be conservative with the dollars in these times. guess we cant blame him for that. he is doing everything he can tho.

No Zach didnt win games single handedly but he could of been a big part of what could be a good offensive 11.

Seems like the popular vote here says Miller sucked. I enjoyed watching him and thought of him as a clutch player at times. I thought he was a bright spot on the Raiders O. Some people lost faith in Miller last season…I haven’t. The dude is a fkn stud.
Now then, he is not a Raider anymore so fck him. I don’t wish disability on anyone….but I hope he gets his effin bell rung and sets his status down to league minimum.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:37 pm
How did Zach Miller become a Seahawk,,,? Seattle made him an offer he couldn’t refuse,,,,the end.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:37 pm
Many Teams “overpay” for players.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
The Raiders made decisions based on a NEW salary cap, existing contracts, projected development of players on the roster, and the “holes” filled thru the draft.
Most organizations operate in this manner.
The bottom line will be in determining if the decisions were accurate. The results will be on the scoreboard for all to see.

August 2nd, 2011 at 4:39 pm
Post #38. Pretty interesting. We could be the greatest show on….a dirt infield. In Saunders scheme, if Taiwan Jones can catch and fill in to spell McFadden from time to time, Bush might be expendable too. I think he will be here, but I agree – a first and a third for him is a good deal.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:40 pm
Kevin Boss is better
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:40 pm
I’ll say it again. This is McFadden and Seymour’s team. Everything is designed to work around their strengths. Other players are interchangeable.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:42 pm
Bush will b bak, taiwan cant take a hit ask rolondo
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:43 pm
Al f’k up. Anyone who is not a homer and understands football knows this.
Al is stubborn and has his ways. His way says you don’t pay a TE that kind of money.
Al’s way gets you a Decade of Douchery.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:43 pm
However, a team source as recently as Sunday thought Miller would return and that details on a contract were being finalized. Wimbley’s longterm contract helped clear cap space and
appeared to clear the way for Miller’s signing until the Seahawks stepped in.GO SEAHAWKS!!! UNTIL THE SEAHAWKS STEPPED IN LMAO OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! PAPA LIAR there was no contract offered!!!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:46 pm
Next out the door,,, DHB. Although we may have to wait a year.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:47 pm
There’s no doubt we are venturing into the unknown. ZM being the most productive receiving option 4 the past 4 years.
But in the long run this is the best move. No way I pay ZM that bread. Not for a 2wice/3x concusse w/ recent planter whateva foot injury (an injury that Gates STILL has not recovered from and he had it longer than Z).
YOU CANNOT TEL ME ZM WAS THE SAME PLAYA LAST YEAR.
His mileage started to show. Hence the Raiders drafting 2 TEs. Davis drafted 2 TEs 4 a reason. Sure, the timing is off but the end result will be the same. I.e. ZM replaced by Ausberry
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:47 pm
The Old Man will come through for the nation, To the curent players on the team, if you don’t want to be a raider…Kick Rocks Baby!!!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:47 pm
“Throw DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP” – Podman
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:47 pm
Hue probably said he could do without Zach because he would get manhandled in the new power blocking scheme — need a TE who is a better power blocker, but still with good hands. They could probably line up Boss with Ausberry in a 2 TE set and go with that since Aus is a converted WR. Let ZM go back to the zone blocking scheme where he won’t get his melon crushed as often.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:47 pm
Uh who cares about the Seaducks? Dbag.
You just WAAAAYYYY overpaid for a solid TE who could be one hit out of the league. And you already HAVE a pretty good TE on your roster. Sounds like you’re the one who got f’d.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:49 pm
A little payback from Cable to Al. Good.
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:49 pm
We are getting faster by the day… 11-5 here we come!!
August 2nd, 2011 at 4:50 pm
I’m sorry fellas but that is too much money for Zack Miller we will miss him to an extent but by midseason we wont. By then Ausberry should be getting more snaps and also Gordon. Myers has to be oon point to start the season. As much as I like Sack he isn’t Gates or Gonzalez and teh Chiefs lost Gonzalez and the kid who took his place was a 7th rnd pick who went to the Probowl.

Sounds like he and his wife liked Seattle. Seattle’s a cool city. If I could do the same job there that I’m doing where I live now, at the same price/more, then you’re damm sure right I’m taking that opportunity. I like where I work, but I like life outside of it better.

It provides time to earn their cred.
Players look for reasons to be optimistic. If the young bloods are making plays that Z could not,(ahem…take a quick slant to the house) they’ll hang the hats on it…and roll with it.

Those saying ZM got over-payed are wrong. That is about the going rate for top 10 TEs these days.
More than Gates ever got payed, but still less than VDavis.
One problem with this new CBA is, players still want big contracts, but GMs have less money to work with.
I will still be rooting for PHI and SEA – every time they play SF!
If we get BOSS I’d be STOKED! If not, then thats just 4 more check-downs for Reece, Bush, and DMAC to split (per game)

Zack Miller not in the top 10. He is an also ran, same as Boss. Both just decent players period.

August 2nd, 2011 at 5:10 pm
let’s set the record straight; losing Nnamdi will hurt the Raiders more than losing Zach; that being said
Raiders still have their core nucleus to not only dominate the AFC West as they did last year, more importantly to win the AFC West Division.
We have our front dominating DLine, solid LB that get to the qb need to stop the run, we have an improved OLine quicker, stronger, and younger, we have the best RB combo (dual and triple threats) in the NFL, and we have a solid QB returning which we have not had since Gannon retired, (Collins was the best qb we’ve had until Jason arrived).
August 2nd, 2011 at 5:11 pm
Sorry Ted, I say that was overpaid. Seachunks blew it.
And I think ZMiller was a STUD. But I wouldn’t have paid that.

August 2nd, 2011 at 5:15 pm
Knowing this, I kind of wish we made a run at Vontae Leech and moved Reece to TE. I think Myers could still prove a decent replacement and is probably a better blocker.
Wouldn’t mind adding Bo Scaife if the price is right. I’ve also always been a fan of Dave Thomas and I think I heard he’s available. Any other options?
August 2nd, 2011 at 5:16 pm

Take a look at this Kamerion Wimbley evaluation from last season, many will be surprised:
- “Raiders OLB Kamerion Wimbley finished as the Top Rated 4-3 OLB in Pro Football Focus rankings.
How did this guy get no press?.
36 quarterback disruptions as he rushed the passer in nickel situations, and some really strong work in run defense.
Finished the year as our top ranked 4-3 outside linebacker. Great pick up.
A change of scenery did him good. Sent packing from Cleveland’s 3-4 defense to a fresh start in Oakland’s 4-3, Wimbley exploded.
He jumped from the bottom five 3-4 OLB’s in 2009 to the top spot among 4-3 OLB’s in 2010.
Wimbley was stronger as a pass rusher from the year before, but we saw a bigger leap in his Run D, improving from -8.6 to a +13.3 grade.
To many, miscast in the Raiders 4-3, Oakland got the best out of Wimbley in sub package defenses where he picked up pressure on 20.88% of the third and fourth down plays he spent hunting QB’s.
It may have surprised some when Kamerion Wimbley was given the franchise tag, but it didn’t surprise us.
Wimbley may not be a prototypical outside linebacker given his limitations in coverage, but he more than makes up for it with his everydown work in run defense and pass rushing efforts in sub packages.
The former Brown is another one of those run defenders who do a lot of good work without needing to make a tackle.
————————————————–
Interesting, uh?.
In case some are wondering how do these guys come up with their rankings, here it is…
Pro Football Focus explained:
The goal of our detailed grading process is to gauge how players execute their roles over the course of a game by looking at the performance of each individual on each play.
We look beyond the stat sheet at game footage to try to gain an understanding of how well a lineman is blocking on a given play, how much space and help a runner is being given on a play, how effectively a pass rusher brings pressure or how well a defender covers a receiver.
We collect lots of extra statistics such as yards after catch, yards after contact, missed tackles, dropped passes etc., but our real focus is on grading individual performance on each play.
Did an offensive lineman seal his block to spring the runner through a hole? Did a defensive lineman beat his block to force a runner to change the play direction in the backfield? Was the crucial third-down completion due to the quarterback beating the coverage or a breakdown in coverage?.
We examine not just the statistical result of a play, but the context of that statistic.
The defensive tackle may have made a tackle on a play, but if it was third and 5 and he got blown 4 yards off of the ball to make the tackle after a 6-yard gain, that’s not a good play.
Throughout the course of the season (regular season and playoffs) we grade every single offensive, defensive and special teams snap.
We log data such as the point of attack of a running play, the location a pass was thrown and hang time of kicks and punts before moving on to the player-performance analysis.

If I were to make a wild guess I would say Ausberry is truly a year or two away from really knowing the TE position. Thats why losing ZM hurts a little. By mid/late season these guys should be fine; but the initially it will hurt us. Meyers needs to step up and into that role if we do not get anyone else to fill the void.
August 2nd, 2011 at 5:53 pm
It sucks to see nnamdi and Zach go, we’ve followed there careers from their inception so it’s only natural to have some feelings of aprehension and attachment seeing them depart…but let us not forget these guys were part of a horrible team culture that accepted losing, great players make the guys around them better (ex. Richard Seymour). It was time to get the guys who are just collecting a check and don’t give a rats a$$ out (gallery, nnamdi, miller). I say to them best of luck. Now let’s get excited about the guys that are still on the roster and that want to be Raiders.

It took Reece what 1-2yrs before he was competent enough in the FB game? And he still needs work, yet he is one dynamic playmaker in that position.

thats why we need to sign boss terrapin. boss fits this offense better when u think about it. he is a more rugged blocker which suits our power based scheme. he also is more of a downfield threat and can catch just as good. he is underutilized in ny cuz their wr’s make plays. he could easily get 50-65 catches here for half the price. ive watched him for some time now and he might be a bit better than miller if allowed to shine. tafur jackazz dont know what he’s talkin about sayin that miller is a much better reciever and slightly less of a blocker. boss is a much better block and just as good a reciever.

Campbell threw for 165 a game last year. and 40 of that yards per game were to Zach Miller. Tavaris isnt far away. Just wait, Campbell gets the hwole “diff offense system” pass every year, well this year he has to show me something. His best pass plays were because mc fadden ran after the catch or Jacoby ford turned into a circus monkey and made the catch on poorly thrown balls. The rest of his years were dink and dunks at that. You see the SD game when Miller was wide open in the end zone and campbell threw it 6 feet over his head and Miller had to make a circus catch and they challeneged the play? yeah campbell is awful.

I’m looking forward to seeing some athleticism and actual speed added to the TE position. We will certainly get a look at the rookie TEs in these 4 preseason games.
Is Boss really better than Meyers?
I’m thinking save the chips. We might have to throw some money at the QB position next year. Pretty sure Murphy and Schillens might need a new deal too.
Not having a security blanket like Miller might force more throws to the WRs, eh?
Pretty sure we were going to see more 3WR sets with Ford in the slot anyway.

Boss would be a great 1 year stopgap.
August 2nd, 2011 at 6:18 pm
Again, this move actually (directly or indirectly) get the Raiders playing the football that truly wins…so no to Kevin Boss or any other free agent except Tatupu
1. Run the ball +55% of the time..maybe more…run the hell out of DMAC and Bush…I am a HUGE advocate of running the football! Smashmouth
2. If a receiver or two truly step up fine…othewise let J.Ford extend the field to keep defense honest
3. Focus on the Front 7. Defense is about Big, Hard Hitting players…not fleet footed speed linebackers and defensive backs….
3a. NEVER DRAFT DEFENSIVE BACKS AND WIDE RECEIVERS/TIGHT ENDS IN THE 1ST TWO ROUNDS – those rounds are for D-Lineman, Linebackers and O-Lineman (in that order)
4. Change up the looks and focus on pressure on the QB and put the QB on his back

You can almost draw an equivalent analogy here. You don’t NEED an all-pro TE to win in this league. Thats why TEs don’t command a lot of $$.

#308 I think that’s ok if you have above average WR’s…I’m not sure we do…Chaz has shown flashes but hasn’t played a whole season…Murphy drops too many balls…DHB? Ford may be the best but he broke his hand. So I would get a TE unless we get a no 1 WR…
August 2nd, 2011 at 6:30 pm
From Bolt Beat….you know if the opponent’s fans are happy you have lost a player, then you have lost something even if you are in denial:
“Zach Miller used to tear us apart when he was part of the Oakland Raiders. We always struggled with tight ends and Miller used to give us fits. He was the most consistent piece of the Raiders and we are happy that we don’t have to face him twice a year. Miller signed with the Seattle Seahawks today and our linebackers won’t have to worry about him anymore. Get the truck guys, let’s pack his stuff and get him out of this division as fast as we can!”
August 2nd, 2011 at 6:31 pm
I’m far more worried about what we’re going to get from the QB position than losing Nnamdi and Zach. Campbell needs to step up and at least be average this season. Pair that with, hopefully, a sick ground game and fierce d-line, sprinkle in the occasional 50+ yard score from Murph and Ford and we’re gonna be a tough out.
August 2nd, 2011 at 6:31 pm
According to winning percentage, Bill Callahan was the best coach we’ve had since Gruden, with Tom Cable being the second best. Hue’s yet to win his first game as an NFL head coach. So as of yet, he’s behind all of them.

3a. NEVER DRAFT DEFENSIVE BACKS AND WIDE RECEIVERS/TIGHT ENDS IN THE 1ST TWO ROUNDS – those rounds are for D-Lineman, Linebackers and O-Lineman (in that order)
4. Change up the looks and focus on pressure on the QB and put the QB on his back
This team is playing the football I have advocated for a long, long, time
What team was Hue with before Oakland?
——————————————————-
thats bullsh!t! thats not the way that truly wins. there are more ways to win this is just the one U prefer. this offense will not be smashmouth. they are going to throw the football equally when everything is right. they want a high powered balanced offense. the NY GIANTS are the type of offense we are building. able to be explosive on the ground and in the air. lay off that boring azz baltimore/pittspuke stuff u love so much.

August 2nd, 2011 at 6:40 pm
Armond,
Before the Steelers, Jets or Ravens had passing games that were “reliable”….how did they win games?
You guys sit around and want to “cut it loose” when the horses just aren’t there for that.
Now, you have two LEGIT running backs that can run between the tackles….leverage the HELL out of that…oh and both of those monsters can catch that ball
On defense, you build a defense that is physical and can “bully” the opponent….you will be in WAAAAAAAAYYYYY more games than your not.
Come see this defense IF the run defense improves like we think it can…get Tatupu and forget about it! The Raiders will have their own “insert nickname” defense that keeps opponents up at night.
I never bought into that “if the offense scores, it forces the opponent” B.S
Hue is building a bully….”Oklahoma Drills on the 1st day” that’s building SMASHMOUTH FREEKN FOOTBALL

Armond,
Of course you can’t compare Meyers stats to Boss since one guy was a backup.
I’d venture to say that Shockey’s antics were more of the reason he was gone from NY and his injuries. Not to mention how much $ he wanted.
Boss’ numbers prior to him starting in NY were probably on par to what Meyers #s are.

Grads > Campbell
Came in to pull that StL game out of the fire after Campbell laid an egg in the opener vs Tenn and was well on his way to doing the same. Then Grads leads a brilliant drive to set up a game-winning chippy vs AZ. Then nearly rallies us to OT vs Houston but is let down by a Murph drop.
Go back and look at Campbell vs Tenn, STL, the 49ers and the Steelers and tell me how above average he is. I bet there are at least 25-30 better QBs in this league that we know about, and potentially a few more who haven’t had their chance yet.
If you told me Campbell would climb into the 15-20 range this year I’d take it in a heartbeat.

August 2nd, 2011 at 6:47 pm
Br ien,
based on the way the team reacted with him.when Grads started he was only in his 4th year.the win at the steAlers was all I needed 2c.I know you saw it 2.grads is a true field general,like Stabler or Bob Griese,and I never saw the team play as good with JC than they did with Grads.But I guess I can call him Glasskowski,as you say because of his duribility issues.Damn,I guess what I,m really looking 4 is continuity and consistency at QB.Maybe JC had a hard time being his 1st year here.But it will be interesting 2c how Grads does this year and JC does
August 2nd, 2011 at 6:48 pm
snb i agree with the defense but offensively they dont want what u want. didnt u see hue jack try to air it out sometimes? now with al saunders were are going to cut it loose. that doesnt mean we will throw it 35-40 times a games. more like 30-32 and run the ball about 35 times. balance with explosive plays in the air and ground is what we will do. we also are counting on our colts to grow into horses to do that with. u may not agree but thats what it is.

Depends on which Campbell shows up.
The Campbell of the last 5 games of the season is a solid mid-tier NFL QB who can win games with a strong running game behind him.
The Campbell of the first half of last season is a bottom 5 NFL QB.

On Floyd v.s. Braylon… I’ll take a guy without injury concerns, who makes guys like Derek Anderson and Mark Sanchez look good.
Floyd disappears for games at a time. Phillip Rivers can make even Seyi Ajirotutu look like Randy Moss, so I’m not sold on Floyd being a difference maker here in Oakland. Especially not at this point in his career.
For all his faults, Braylon makes big plays, and draws coverage. That’s what this receiving corps needs most of all. He’ll make life for Ford and Schilens (and even DHB) a lot easier.
August 2nd, 2011 at 7:06 pm

August 2nd, 2011 at 7:23 pm
So lets put that baby to bed shall we?
Routt is not overpaid compared to the CB market. Nnam took a paycut so it almost incomparable. Cro got a slightly larger deal and I would say Routt is better than him.
And Wimbley was not overpaid either. Sure it is a lot of money in absolute terms but its what the market is for the best LBs. He is a beast on that field. A force to be reckoned with.
So say the market is overpaying players. Its not really Al being wacky. Its the market dictating things.

Wiz – Drafted after Cable left
Carlisle – Cable guy

2 guys brought in after he left & the other two he messed around with or kept warming the bench. It ain’t Cable’s line.

I don’t think we truly overpaid for Routt. Thats just how much a top notch corner is going to cost you these days.
You cannot compare to Nnam’s current deal because he took a pay cut. Routt is certaintly just as good, heck better than Cromartie and Cro got a larger deal
***********
I agree terrapin – and I hated Routt when he was playing Nickle…
His deal is on par with J.Joseph who is also just decent.

I’ll believe it when I see it. I don’t think anything is gonna happen.
Whatever happened to the “old” Al who would at least make it seem like he was trying to make things happen?
If Al is too broke to field a winning team than he needs to give it up to someone who will at least try.
August 2nd, 2011 at 7:26 pm
B Beane is a active detriment in every sense of the word.
August 2nd, 2011 at 7:26 pm
We’ll survive without Zack Miller. He was a good TE but he certainly wasn’t what I’d call great. Actually I thought his play suffered after his foot injury. Worse case, move Reece to TE. The last time the Raiders converted the FB to TE, he turned out to be the best TE, IMO, that ever played for the Raiders. Anyone remember Todd Christensen? Well, lightening can strike twice. We can also go out and pick up Boss in FA too. Plus, we have some other rookies who seem to be doing ok at TE practice now. The end of the world has not happened.
The one thing I can predict is that whoever ends up at TE for us will get a SB ring before ZMilll4er does. Again, just my opinion. I think ZMiller will ultimately be sorry he didn’t stick. The Raiders are poised to become very successful. I can’t say the same for the Sea Chickens.

Tavaris Jackson over Gardowski? Not even brought in to compete with Whitehurst like we brought Edwards in to compete for Boeller?

If Cable “won the division”, why weren’t the Raiders in the Playoffs?
Hue more than doubled the offensive production of this team, and in doing so, made the Defense step up their game. Hue and J-Camp helped the Raiders get to 6-0 in the Div.
I gave Cable Credit last year for his efforts, but this is Hue’s team now – and Cable went from HC back to OLine coach for a reason.

Just picked up my boss and had dinner with him.
He lives in Denver and is a season-ticket holder. Seems that Orton is clearly the better QB in practice, but the prevailing wisdom in Bronco-land is that they just need to put Jesus on the field, and he will, will the team on.
Their defense shall be pathetic though. Front 7 is a disgrace outside of Elvis and Von Miller (two slight edge rushers). He was telling me the list of D-lineman they had and signed, and I never heard of any one of them.
Seems Knowshown could be a camp casualty. They have had it with him.

Orton wont work in our offense

Tom Cable’s O-line improved here every year, with Al never throwing anything other than mid to late round draft picks, and FA washouts.

We should be getting some compensatory picks next year. A third each for Nnamdi & Gallery (1st round picks) and a 5th for ZMiller (2nd rounder). So, everything is not a total negative.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:12 pm
Wouldn’t be suprised if Seattle won the division again, and I would have said that last week sans Zach Miller.
I think Kolb will flop massively, STL is probably another 1-2 years away, and I can’t see Alex Smith hosting a playoff game.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:13 pm
Screw Z Miller. Let him walk. Tom Cable’s anemic offenses made Z Miller. We had offenses and QBs that couldn’t get the ball to WRs so their last hope was the TE.
We will be fine without him. Plus he has concussion history.

So let me get this straight: Al Davis vastly overpaid Routt and Wimbley, but let his two best players go.
He could have kept Nnamdi and Miller and let Routt and Wimbley go, but he’s too smart to keep the players who everyone else thinks are great.
What a moron.
Jason Campbell is a mediocre QB who desperately needs Miller on 3rd down. After one decent season, the team is getting worse by the day.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:20 pm
Nnamdi to Stanford Routt (pffft. lmao)
Miller to Brandon Myers (who?)
Gradkowski to Trent Edwards as backup QB (Gradkowski clearly better than Edwards in past 2 years)
Every change we’ve made this off season has been a downgrade, statistically. But of course morons like MB don’t pay attention to facts. It’s all about belief and faith to inbred Republicans like him. Just like how they see images of Jesus on their toast.

It’s all about just having a good former player running up and down the sideline with a vein popping out of his head. MB, you’re a genius! No, really, you’re not!

MB, Rod Woodson should just play. He’s better than Routt, right now. If Rod’s not playing, he’s not helping anybody, MB. Stupid fans like you don’t realize that in the NFL coaches can’t do anything with lousy players, but get rid of them. And of course Rod Woodson won’t be able to get rid of any of our average at best defensive backs because he’s not even really a coach. He’s a defensive backs coach. He has no say in anything. He’s basically a cheerleader. And you’re basically a kool aid drinking dumbass!

4eva….Sidney Poiter movie?
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:32 pm
, @ 4eva……….
The single reason we did better is because we shook the weak azz zone blocking scheme and Hue took over the play calling… Come on bra that wasn’t hard to see
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Al Davis needs to let go of the team and let someone with a brain and that doesn’t require assistance from a walker run the team. I would’ve been trying to get Nnamdi and Miller locked up before the lock out even started. Always start with a lower offer and then work your way up. I would much rather have Nnamdi for 5 years, 60M than have Routt for 3 years, 30M. Davis overpays his guys so much it is pathetic. No way would I give Routt 30M, unless it was like a 6 year deal. No way for 30M for Seymour. 5 years, 48M for Wimbley is a bit much. Davis needs to let go of the team now.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:33 pm
well its been great Nation
Cable had us sailing in the right direction and I hope Hue carries it farther
Have a most enjoyable evening Nation
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:34 pm
707….naw seriously need my shoes shined but Kell wants a raise….I dont think he earned ten cents a shine yet
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:34 pm
I don’t know… I’d imagine Rods laying it pretty thick in the locka room… in them boys ears preachin…. get those competitive juices flowing listenin to the best of the best laying is straight to you..
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:35 pm
Everyone wants to blame the old man when we lose, but they don’t want to give him credit when we win. Shut your salad tosser and bow down to the emperor of the nation!
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:35 pm
DFor God’s sake, Davis never even made Nnamdi an offer and he low-balled the hell outta Miller and made him wait too.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:35 pm
‘evening 4!
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:35 pm
Woodson is an upgrade over the last DB coach? lmfao. Who was that? Willie Hall? Another former player? Only dumb Raider fans like you, MB, think that hiring former players into irrelevant skills coaching positions helps teams win. In the Raiders’ system, Rod Woodson is basically a bubble gum chewing cheerleader. Add a bald head, a beer belly, and a brain the size of a peanut, and he’s basically you.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:35 pm
Hue Jack City, I love It
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:36 pm
I only get pissed at Davis when he make dumbass moves…

MB definitely schooled us tonight. Taught us that we upgraded our assistant defensive backs conditioning coach…evening shift. Went from one former player to another. Watch out for that Raiders secondary!
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:39 pm
let’s move Reece to TE and sign Le’Ron McClain….
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:39 pm
@ B@uce, tell em its all good, let em shine u up, the give him a shiner too. Ya feel! Look if Kk goes to the games let’s meet up and give him a town pass and see what he do.

Willie Hall?
ROFLMAO
you fuggin dork MR go take your prozac and watch Mash re runs.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:40 pm
I would have rather re-signed Nnamdi for 12M a year than trade for a CB
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:40 pm
I’m buying a custom jersey with Al “GET OVA IT” Davis on the back and the number 000. because Al is a triple OG.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:40 pm
Man Fk it Im gettin an Al Davis jumpsuit before that Jets game….hell i may bbuy two….one in white and one in black….have the ray bans and the towel just in case I need Kell to wipe my kicks down
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:40 pm
Off subject:
Eagles sign Ronnie Brown.
They are really going balls to the wall with free agent signings.
I didn’t think things could get any better for them after they picked up Johnny Lee Higgins.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:41 pm
AD believes in moving up by pushing others down. The negative karma he has built up by doing so keeps biting the entire Raiders organization in the ars.
AD has absolutely sucked w his GM ability in last decades. no need to prove this point anymore. It has become a fact now.
Which GM moron wouldn’t lock up key players before contract expiration?
AD pays Wimbley almost same money Patrick Willis is earning. WTF???
Mismanagement 101. I’m embarrassed to have him as owner of my favorite team.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:41 pm
Rocky McIntosh still hasn’t been signed yet….
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:42 pm
I don’t care about Zach, 12 tds in 4 years, come on that is mediocre at best. Stop the RUn….
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:42 pm
lol. That’s all you’ve got, MB? Typical dumb ass Davis minion Raider fan. You don’t even have good come backs. Calling me out on a typo…lol. weak!
You think that going from Nnamdi Asomugha to Stanford Routt is addition by subtraction.
You think that going from Zach Miller to Brandon Myers is addition by subtraction.
You think that going from one former player to another former player at assistant defensive quality control conditioning calisthenics instructor or whatever is addition by subtraction.
I’m telling you, in your case, A LOBOTOMY would be addition by subtraction! You’re the dumbest Raider fan homer I’ve ever seen in here.

CODE BLACK 2011!
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:42 pm
I would tell MR…BUT HE WILL GET WRONG IDEA ABOUT WHAT TO “SHINE”….and i dont get down like that
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:43 pm
I agree with you UCLA
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:43 pm
I’ll tell you what… Al might be 82, but he still ain’t afraid to let it drop in front of anyone… For real, for real, we have a man running the show.. we gotta keep our heart alive and well.. I just pray his son is the principled man Mr Davis is… and hopefully he let it drop and flop like he owns the place as well.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:44 pm
CODE BLACK 2011…..see ya Ted
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:44 pm
707… The scores are lacking yes, but he had been our best receiver since we drafted him
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:45 pm
I hope his son will be a better owner than the old man has been the last 20 or so years. Hire a GM and run the show WITH the GM.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:46 pm
Maybe making a play for Braylon?
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:48 pm
need to sign Boss and we’ll be ok, we dont have to make big fa splash. We are building from within, drafting great classes, taking care of our own, putting great coaches with a game plan in place, and making minor fa tweaks here and there. We will win the west.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:50 pm

August 2nd, 2011 at 8:51 pm
I’m not so sure anymore…..
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:52 pm
can’t downplay the magnitude of losing Miller. best TE in oakland since the casper-chester years. and how long did it take before we finally find him after watching guys flame-out like dudley and teyo johnson? and now we let him go? meanwhile a guy like DHB is getting PAID for doing nothing?… Al better have a contingency plan, otherwise he just chose routt and wimbley over nnamdi and zach.
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:52 pm
They are about even to me
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:54 pm
Cut dhb or restructure his contract
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:55 pm
the problem with braylon he would be caught up in a drive-by the first week in oakland, the guy has no brain
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:55 pm
How much was Huff re-signed for?
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:55 pm
True, Braylon isn’t very bright…..
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:56 pm
Why haven’t we cut Carlisle yet?
August 2nd, 2011 at 8:57 pm
I mean, seriously. Why is he still out there sucking?
August 2nd, 2011 at 9:02 pm
I wouldn’t mind signing Waters or Davis to a one-year deal…
August 2nd, 2011 at 9:09 pm
See ya!!!! Miller was overrated, great hands and that was it. Route running was sloppy and one of the slowest TE in the league, and do not get me started with his blocking. Probably the worst in the league, which is why I believe big Al did not keep him. GREAT move on his part. Hopefully he signs Boss and we get the traditional TE we have been lacking.
August 2nd, 2011 at 9:31 pm
Man Davis’s Kool-Aid must be good, because there are a whole lot of people drinking it up. 2 days ago a lot of these same people were saying how great Miller is and how he’s potentially one of the top 5 TE’s. Now he’s a bad pass blocker, and a fragile player? I know I won’t get an honest answer, but if Davis would have traded Boss for Miller straight up last year, would you think that was a good deal? Not one scout, or GM worth their spit would take that deal. So don’t say that we’re getting an upgrade with Boss (if we sign him) And everyone jumping on the Ausberry train, dude’s a 7th round pick!!! He might not even make the team! Wise up ya’ll, we’re not better for this move…we’re not doomed from it, but definitely not better.
August 2nd, 2011 at 10:06 pm
Miller was offered a contract last night and didn’t want it. He was good, but not great, and def not worth $34 mil. Its a loss, def, but not the end of the world. Meyers is decent and can step in now. FA is not over yet and once Zach gets another concussion, he’ll be on IR anyway. And who knows about the 2 rooks and Boss is still out there so we have options. Stop panicking, Millers is not Gates.. And btw, DMac is the best offensive player we have by a mile, not Miller so stop saying we lost best O and D players.
We’re not better from the FA losses, but we’re not necessarily worse either without seeing who steps in. BTW, loved the Wimbley signing – he got paid for sure but he was an absolute monster and is going to be for years to come.
Go RAIDERS!
August 2nd, 2011 at 10:10 pm
Not me, I was calling for him to get traded along time ago. Boss might not be an upgrade in terms of his hands, but he is just as fast and a far superior blocker both in the run and pass game.
August 3rd, 2011 at 10:04 am
You wouldn’t be talking bad about these guys if your owner was smart enough to keep them.The league ought to do to him the same as the Dodgers.
August 3rd, 2011 at 10:13 am
The Raiders are toast,heck even your own papers say that.McFadden will revert back to his old self.Campbells Soup will be throwing the ball to his self and if Jackson is so bad why did Rice follow him to SEATTLE?Al Davis doesn’t know football.Fired the best coach you’ve had in years and lets his good players leave without an offer!!!!! GO SEAHAWKS!!!

Your best bet now is to make the SEAHAWKS your new team and hope PAUL ALLEN OR BILL GATES buys the RAIDERS and moves them to PORTLAND so you don’t have to watch them regress like AL DAVIS.
August 3rd, 2011 at 12:20 pm
Miller could’ve stayed if he wanted but he didn’t so TO HELL WITH HIM!
And to all you cry baby fake ass Raider fans, grow a pair and man up! Or go be a 9er fan, you whiners…we don’t need you here! And to hell with you trolling SeaChicken fans too!
