Pre-practice odds and ends
By Steve Corkran
Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011 at 2:49 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders confirmed the signing of free agent linebacker Darryl Blackstock. He last played in the NFL in 2008, when he was a member of the Cincinnati Bengals.
Blackstock. 6-feet-3 and 240 pounds, started four games for the Bengals in 2008 under the direction of Chuck Bresnahan, who now is the Raiders defensive coordinator. Bresnahan coached Blackstock for the Florida Tuskers in the UFL last year.
Overall, Blackstock has played four seasons in the NFL. His first three came with the Arizona Cardinals from 2005-07. He recorded four sacks in 46 games for the Cardinals as a situational player. He started only two games during his three seasons in Arizona.
*The Raiders guaranteed free safety Michael Huff $12 million to re-sign. Huff received $7.3 million to sign and $700,000 in base salary this season. He has a $4 million guaranteed salary in 2012 and the potential to earn $32 million over the next four seasons.
*Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell shouldn’t have any difficulty acclimating to playing behind the blocking of offensive tackle Stephon Heyer. Campbell and Heyer were in the starting lineup together for 25 of 48 games with the Washington Redskins from 2007-09. Heyer started three games in 2007 in which Campbell did not play. Heyer, 27, has played on both sides of the line.
*Guard Justin Smiley brings a wealth of experience to the Raiders offensive line. He started 78 games for the 49ers, Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars from 2004-10. Only five of those starts came last season, when an ankle injury forced him to miss considerable time for the Jaguars.
*The re-signing of Samson Satele gives the Raiders some much-needed insurance in case rookie Stefen Wisniewski gets injured or struggles as the starter. Satele started 15 games at center for the Raiders last season and 59 games during his four NFL seasons, two each with the Dolphins and Raiders.
Wisniewski was the only natural center on the Raiders roster before Satele re-signed Tuesday. Alex Parsons and rookie Elias Eliades are getting some snaps at center during training camp.
*Thursday is the day the Raiders welcome a slew of veterans who have signed or re-signed since the lockout ended and weren’t allowed to practice. That list includes fullback Marcel Reece, long-snapper Jon Condo, defensive end Jarvis Moss, linebacker Sam Williams and Bruce Davis, Satele, Huff , defensive tackle Desmond Bryant and offensive lineman Khalif Barnes.
*Still awaiting word on whether running back Michael Bush signs his one-year tender as an unrestricted free agent. If he does so within the next 24 hours, he would be allowed to practice Thursday.
Any team that makes Bush an offer would be obligated to give the Raiders a first-round draft pick as compensation if the Raiders decided against matching the offer. Bush is due slightly less than $3.3 million per the tender.

Orton will be the starter in Denver. He will not be traded, Mike Lombardi said Wednesday
Lombardi doesn’t think Tebow will ultimately get a fair chance in Denver.
“He’s in limbo right now. I said all offseason I thought Tim Tebow wasn’t in their plans. . . I think ultimately he is not in their plans,” he said.

i don’t think some of u really understand what’s going on. why would we run out and sign a vet wr? they would only prevent us from seeing if the guys we have can play. schilens can be bigtime if he finally stays healthy. basically a make-or-break year for him. murphy has shown the ability to be a legit starting nfl wr. i don’t know if ford is a real receiver, meaning route runner, hands, etc., but he is an explosive playmaker/deep threat. dhb’s career will either resemble tim brown’s/cliff branch’s or he will fade away. a make-or-break year for him too. but tjose 4 have to be given the playing time to see what we have. the raiders won’t make the playoffs. they have to build w/ the young players they have. 65 of the 86 players on their current roster have 5 years or less experience. 72 are under 30. quit expecting to run out and sign a bunch of expensive vets. we have the nucleus in place.

we already know that they arent reliable at all
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:25 pm
stop thinking of it like u have to replace one guy w/ another. look at it like this:
running game–#2 last year. should be very good again. lost gallery, a pretty good G, but Loper was a find. a journeyman who ended up being nearly as good as gallery. replacing satele w/ wiz is an upgrade. veldheer in his 2nd year, star on the rise. carlisle a solid vet. walker ok but slow. barnes or heyer fine. added jones, an explosive reggie bush-type. mcfadden could be huge this year.
passing game–quicker RT should help. campbell in 2nd year for 1st time ever. played well in 2nd half. make-or-break year for him but i sense he could be good. wr’s have talent. it’s their time. miller was a possession guy only. a good one but his #’s were inflated due to poor qb play/young wr’s. lots of multi-wr sets, great rb’s out of the backfield. mcfadden, reece, jones. al saunders/hue jackson offense. could be a dramatic improvement.
run defense–front four looking like dominant. LB’s key. mcclain’s improvement huge. not sure about groves but goethel/FA could be answer. branch/miller/huff good supporting safeties. again, LB’s the key here.
pass defense–lots of sacks. #2 in nfl last year by 1. could be better this year. lb coverage good. branch is star. huff arrived last year. don’t discount him. he’s there now. routt too. he’s a player now. 4 1st or 2nd yr. CB’s to fill one spot. maybe a FA vet.
so, basically, we might need aLB and a CB.
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:26 pm
Heres the extra bad part about being over the cap right now. Its only counting the 51 top salaries, before week 1 it will be counting the top 53 plus 8 practice squaders. We need to free up significant room.

Cap Compliance may be one of the reasons why we have not pulled in any big name FA’s. The cap needs to be under compliance tommorow.
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:28 pm
We are going to lose at least one more starter before the end of camp as a cap casualty.
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:30 pm
Well, Boss is now saying he wants to return to the Giants. So I guess we’re going with Myers, Gordon and Ausberry at TE.

ford=2nd year
dhb/murphy=3rd year
schilens=4th year (minus injuires)
3rd year is when wr’s break out.
how the hell do u know they’re unreliable? they haven’t even had a chance.

Heres my list of guys who could/should be cut due to cap issues:
Barnes, Bennett, Boller, B Campbell, Carlisle, Eugene, Groves, Henderson, Heyer, DHB, CJ37, NMiller, Mitchell, Moss, Williams
I know a few of those are HIGHLY unlikely to be cut, but if I am anyone of these guys I would be playing like today is my last day.
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:37 pm
So we lost miller and Nnamdi. It’s okay, we have Routt and Sam Williams. Jeez. We look like we are built to stop the run, but how will we when teams are picking us apart in the passing game. 7-9 best case scenario. Hue seems like a good coach, and I hope he gets the best out of the players. I hope I’m wrong, but given our history and the fact that Al is still running the so-called ’show’, I won’t be.

August 3rd, 2011 at 3:38 pm

schilens=4th year (minus injuires)
this means they have had a chance they are not rookies they have been on the field in a regular season game who caught that pass we needed aginst houston and the 40 whiners just for late first downs in a game winning drive nobody
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:38 pm
I think people dont realize that when Gruden beat Mr Davis in the Super Bowl, it was such a emotional tragedy and shocking experience to say the least, Mr Davis has never recovered. A loss is one thing, but an embarrassment from your former coach is another thing.
We win that game with Gruden coaching and Al knows it. My point is Al has never recovered, never quite been the same. It has clouded his mind giving all he has invested, his whole life, into the Raiders.
So when Al Makes these moves, or doesnt make these moves, we need to realize he is still hurting from that game. I think hes gotten over it, but the first seven years after the SB loss was pretty cinvincing somethin wasnt right.

CJ37? word is he’s outplaying routt
August 3rd, 2011 at 3:40 pm
The run defense hinges solely on McClain, Goethel, Houston, and Shaughnessy making HUGE strides in 2011.
Personnel hasn’t changed. Seymour isn’t going to get better, nor is Tommy Kelly. The Raiders were 29th in run defense last season…

Barnes, Bennett, Boller, B Campbell, Carlisle, Eugene, Groves, Henderson, Heyer, DHB, CJ37, NMiller, Mitchell, Moss, Williams
====================================================
Campbell’s only got a 4th-round contract (i.e. CHEAP). He won’t be going, unless that “non-football injury” is really drugs or something else bad.
Boller could easily go if La Seca or another UDFA impresses.
Carlisle could go.
Bennett almost certainly WILL go; he doesn’t play special teams, and Taiwan is younger and cheaper.
Eugene may well be cut and re-signed on the cheap. Don’t need him for $2 mil when we just re-upped Huff.
CJ37 would be risky, but he makes a lot, and if DVD or WMAC is ready to go on the other side…
Mitchell and DHB are Al Pet Projects that he took a TON of heat for drafting. No way he gives up this soon (and Mitchell is a stud).
Groves could go.
Moss will probably stay.
Nick Miller can’t me making much, but he’s kind of superfluous at this point.
Sam Williams is a special teams stud who Al likes. He’s not going.

Gotta disagree with you on point #2. DHB may well restructure, but NO WAY Al cuts him. Al took a buttload of heat for drafting him, and he simply WILL NOT cut bait two years in. Won’t happen.

Al may have dodged a big one here: What may seem on paper like a organiztional downgrade at player personel this year, may in fact be the biggest spike in team preparedness the Raiders have ever met.
While it appears that Al Davis may be doing little to next to nothing, letting key players walk, not going after big name FAs’, he has already done more than he has in recent years combined.
While I wont get into the financial structures and cap nonesense, what Al has done first and foremost was can Cable and replace him with Hue Jackson. While Cable canning may or may not have been justified, who better in the wings than Hue.
Al contracted the guys he wanted before the lockout and that is all that needs to be said. If Aso were to stay, it would have been because that is what Al wanted. He probably saw Zach Miller as someone who is softening up and Al wanted no part of it.
When Al got Hue, Al got a bully-builder. And bringing on Woodson, Wiz, and Biekert was flat out bold.
Al has already done all the work he needs to do. He hired Hue as head coach.

AL/Herrera are comedians:
Raiders Owner Al Davis has always said that the Raiders have had the greatest players, greatest coaches, played in the greatest games and participated in the greatest plays in the history of professional football. The Raiders have been dominant in terms of winning. The greatest wide receivers in professional football have passed through the portals of the Oakland Raiders or have been coached by Davis.
Lance Alworth
Willie Gault
Art Powell
Andre Rison
Warren Wells
Bob Chandler
Fred Biletnikoff
Jerry Rice
Cliff Branch
Tim Brown
James Lofton
Randy Moss
Now Darrius Heyward-Bey, the Raiders’ top pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, is prepping to join that select group. Heyward-Bey has enjoyed a workmanlike offseason where he has put in time and energy to prepare for his second NFL campaign, when many of those whose names mentioned blossomed in professional football competition.
“I’m just working on my game, using this opportunity to get better, to work with my quarterbacks and my teammates,” said Heyward-Bey following a recent OTA session. “Just going out, just playing my game. That’s all I’m doing right now. And I’m using each practice to reach my goals.”
The list of wide receivers should make any pundit or so-called expert think twice before putting negativity on Heyward-Bey. No one has come close to the excellence at wide receivers that have worn the Silver and Black. These performers have been the greatest players who have ever played the game.

how did your boy get an nfl job

He is an assistant to an NFL insider. I can’t say who. Don’t want to get him fire.
no problem i always wanted to be in the nfl as what ever but no fag ish but i understand
=======================================
Big Oak if your buyin that line then you really need to talk to roger goooodell and see if he can get you an inside job. Worked for me but the pay was garbage, so I told him where he could shove it and quit. Interns are in big demand tho, just sayin…………………

Except for Randy Moss I don’t see anyone on that list that has been on the field for the last 8 years.
In case you haven’t noticed its a “What have you done for me lately” League we play in 2011.
Shall we post the list of guys that have been here over the last 8 or 9 years that have not played well?
Starting with DHB!
August 3rd, 2011 at 4:29 pm
Notice the look on the bulls face. He seems to be enjoying the gouging.
August 3rd, 2011 at 4:33 pm
DHB is going to be much better this year…I look for him to have an impact on our offense. This is the year it clicks for him…

If 34MM or Etheridge show that they can play the single high safety position we can all rejoice in Eugene being cut. But at this point he has value and provides depth at both safety spots

one kid that i think will have a huge impact is dvd. he is a little raw but you just cant ignore the length and speed this kid plays with, he also seems to have natural ball skills. I think by mid season he will be on the field a lot.

August 3rd, 2011 at 4:52 pm
Man i am really for DHB. This kid starts football late in high school, and leaves college early. I thought not only was he trying to learn how to play football as an nfl player (very difficult), but he struggled with the sheer physicality of the game. In other words he was a boy amongst men. Now that he is physically up to the challenge, and has continued to learn the game i can see him as a 3-6 catch a game guy, with serious run after the catch ability. In a few games last year he was our best receiver, he needs to be much more consistent.
May not seem like much but doubling his production rookie to sophmore year was big for him, spending the summer with jc may have been even bigger.
August 3rd, 2011 at 4:52 pm

AL DAVIS is kiiling us. Huff 32 million!? Routt 20 mill guaranteed? Wimbley 29 mill guaranteed? Still have to sign Bush and cut cap down by tomorrow. There is no room for: BOSS, FLOYD, STEVE SMITH, TATUPU … and no picks left to set-up any trades. Our roster aint changing much from camp, just slimming down to the best of what we got. DHB needs to restructure, so does Seymour and I think he will.

Well, I have to say now, where I’m from saying something extremely nasty about a man’s mother usually results in a beatdown.

Wishful thinking here that has about 0.5% chance of happening, but I’d be fine with DHB getting cut to free up a ton of cap room, signing Boss & perhaps Smith or Floyd. I know it aint happening, but dreamin is what the preseason’s for ain’t it?

August 3rd, 2011 at 3:25 pm
stop thinking of it like u have to replace one guy w/ another. look at it like this:
running game–#2 last year. should be very good again. lost gallery, a pretty good G, but Loper was a find. a journeyman who ended up being nearly as good as gallery. replacing satele w/ wiz is an upgrade. veldheer in his 2nd year, star on the rise. carlisle a solid vet. walker ok but slow. barnes or heyer fine. added jones, an explosive reggie bush-type. mcfadden could be huge this year.
passing game–quicker RT should help. campbell in 2nd year for 1st time ever. played well in 2nd half. make-or-break year for him but i sense he could be good. wr’s have talent. it’s their time. miller was a possession guy only. a good one but his #’s were inflated due to poor qb play/young wr’s. lots of multi-wr sets, great rb’s out of the backfield. mcfadden, reece, jones. al saunders/hue jackson offense. could be a dramatic improvement.
run defense–front four looking like dominant. LB’s key. mcclain’s improvement huge. not sure about groves but goethel/FA could be answer. branch/miller/huff good supporting safeties. again, LB’s the key here.
pass defense–lots of sacks. #2 in nfl last year by 1. could be better this year. lb coverage good. branch is star. huff arrived last year. don’t discount him. he’s there now. routt too. he’s a player now. 4 1st or 2nd yr. CB’s to fill one spot. maybe a FA vet.
so, basically, we might need aLB and a CB.
