Raiders should trade for Jenkins
By Steve Corkran
Friday, April 27th, 2012 at 1:31 pm in Oakland Raiders.
It would be easy to envision Al Davis making a huge splash by trading for Colts defensive end Dwight Freeney or Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora were he still around to make the calls for the Raiders.
However, this is a new era under general manager Reggie McKenize and owner Mark Davis. Therefore, big splashes aren’t as likely, at least for now.
That doesn’t mean the Raiders can’t make some small waves. What better way to do so than to trade for Dallas Cowboys cornerback Mike Jenkins?
The Cowboys reportedly are interested in dealing Jenkins in light of their signing Brandon Carr in free agency and selecting Morris Claiborne with the sixth pick of the NFL draft Thursday night.
Some reports say the Cowboys might part ways with Jenkins for as little as a fifth-round draft pick. It just so happens that the Raiders have a fifth-rounder that they can trade — that’s one of only two picks they have this year that can be traded.
Sure, the Raiders signed veteran cornerbacks Shawntae Spencer and Ron Bartell in free agency, as well as Pat Lee. They also have second-year players Chimdi Chekwa and DeMarcus Van Dyke, as well as Brandon Underwood, on their roster, too.
Jenkins was a first-round draft pick in 2008. He intercepted one pass and tied for the team lead with 10 passes broken up last season.
He is projected to be the No. 4 cornerback in Dallas. He could compete for a starting spot with the Raiders, no doubt. So, why not take a flier on a player who once was regarded enough to be taken in the first round?
It’s unlikely that the Raiders can find a comparable cornerback in the fifth round, if at all, in this year’s draft. Al Davis would have pulled the trigger on such a move, regardless if it meant dipping into next year’s draft bounty.
It remains to be seen whether McKenzie is as interested in making a bold move in hopes of turning someone else’s afterthought into a dependable player.

Man, I thought he meant Janoris.
I’ll pass on Mike.

Great Idea Steve. I like it.
I would offer a 6th.

This is from Vic Tafur at the Chron on the 19th…
Here is my list of which prospects have visited the Raiders and where/if general manager Reggie McKenzie may try and get them in next week’s draft (in alphabetical order). Oakland doesn’t pick until No. 95 in the third round:
USC defensive end Armond Armstead — He missed the 2001 season due to illness (chest pains) and was a late addition to the draft after choosing not to remain at USC or transfer to another program. He is 6-4, 294 and was dominant at times during the 2010 season. Good late-round reach.
East Carolina offensive tackle Steven Baker – He’s 6-foot-7, 301 pounds, ran a 4.91 40. Poor man’s Bruce Campbell might go in sixth or seventh round or else be free agent.
Iowa safety Jordan Bernstine – Return specialist ran the 40-yard dash in 4.34 and 4.38 seconds at his campus Pro Day workout. Lot of injuries in college. 7th-rounder probably moving to cornerback.
Utah cornerback Conroy Black — Mel Kiper ranks Black as 47th-best CB prospect and Bernstine 50th. Black is 5-11, 181 and ran a 4.49, tied for most interceptions in Pac-12 with four. Utah has sent five defensive backs to NFL in last three years.
Houston outside linebacker Sammy Brown — Fifth-round target? He doesn’t have explosive burst, scouts say, but he just makes plays. Led the nation with 30 tackles for a loss. He’s 6-2, 240 and has good instincts.
James Madison outside linebacker D.J. Bryant – Possible free agent could be developed as pass-rushing specialist. All-conference but scouts think he will have trouble at point of attack in NFL.
Morgan State tight end Lamont Bryant — 4.45 40 might get project drafted. A lot of teams ready with post-draft free-agent offers.
Nevada defensive end Kaelin Burnett — Ran a 4.55 at his pro day last month and might be looked at as outside linebacker. He didn’t become a starter at Nevada until his senior year. The 6-4, 238 -pound Burnett overcame a hip injury and had 51 tackles, eight tackles for loss and five sacks in 13 games. Free agent.
Beloit receiver Derek Carrier — Mel Kiper’s 61st-rated receiver, he is a big kid — 6-foot-3 and 238. He ran a 4.55 40, had a 40-inch vertical jump and a three-cone run of 6.69 seconds (which would have been second for WRs at the combine). He also produced at the Division III school. He caught 75 passes for 1,100 yards and 12 touchdowns last season. Go ahead and highlight this one. Carrier would be a nice get in Round 6.
Alabama defensive tackle Josh Chapman — It’s looking like this 6-foot, 310-pound space eater may be there for the Raiders at No. 95. Chapman is coming off a major knee injury, but when healthy has the body type to get low, plug the middle and let teammates make plays around him. We’ll see how serious Raiders are about playing more 3-4 this season.
UCLA running back Derrick Coleman — At 6-feet, 235, the hearing-impaired Coleman is a pile mover with decent quickness. Replacement for Michael Bush might be there in Round 5 or 6.
South Florida defensive end Claude Davis – Ranked 111th at DE by Kiper, Davis is 6-1, 229, ran a 4.68 and is being looked at as a linebacker project. Coming off knee surgery. Likely free agent but there are whispers that Patriots coach Bill Belichick likes him.
UCLA safety Tony Dye – Looked like big-time player as a safety but regressed last two years. Also had back and ankle injuries last season. Moves well, bad instincts is the scouting report. Free agent.
Vanderbilt defensive end Tim Fugger — Put a star by this one. Future outside linebacker could go in fifth round and play right away as pass-rush specialist. 6-3, 260, 4.73. Projected to go in 5th round.
Slippery Rock receiver Devin Goda – 6-2, three-year starter whose lack of burst probably has him catching on as free agent.
Albion cornerback Chris Greenwood – 6-1, 189 and likely headed to safety at the next level. He may have jumped up to fifth round with Pro Day showing last month (4.34 40, vertical jump of 43 inches and a broad jump of 11-foot-2.)
Washington State outside linebacker Alex Hoffman-Ellis — Fast and fiery, but often eaten up by blocks in college. Free agent could make an impact on special teams.
Tennessee inside linebacker Austin Johnson – Strictly a run defender and possible free agent.
April 27th, 2012 at 1:40 pm
Agree that Davis would’ve lept at Mike Jenkins if for no other reason it would add another 1st rounder to his roster.
April 27th, 2012 at 1:41 pm
Yes, interesting idea Jerry. However, I wish to point out that given Martin was a 1st round pick in 2008, doesn’t mean much four years later when he is projected to be the 4th Cornerback for the Cowboys this season. You could leave that part out
April 27th, 2012 at 1:43 pm
Not sure if the Cowboys other 3 CB’s are that good to put a former 1st rounder into 4th spot. If so, then maybe its a good thing to take a stab at.
April 27th, 2012 at 1:44 pm
No future in playing WWAD (What Would Al Do?). Other than draft the fastest player avialable of course.
April 27th, 2012 at 1:49 pm
Steve…..try again!
April 27th, 2012 at 1:50 pm
Armstead (FIGHT ON!) was a beast in 2010, and we expected him to be big huge for us last season, he was gonna start at DT. And I will say that him not playing may have cost us at least one win last season, but thats another story. I think Armstead would be good on the 5th or 6th. He can play anywhere on the line, and would be good depth for right now.
April 27th, 2012 at 1:51 pm
Interesting but I don’t know…is Jerry Jones really gonna give him up?

There was a concern about his heart, but he has been cleared. They were extra sensitive and careful with him and didnt want to risk anything.

Mike Jenson was injured last year and rehabbed in the off-season, and may not yet be completely healthy.
Jenson’s best year for the Cowboys came in 2009 when he started 16 games, had 45 solo tackles, with 5 INTs and 19 passes defended.
His career stats over 4 yrs are 137 solo tackles, 40 passes defended and 8 INT’s, with a TD and a forced fumble.
It seems that his performance was adequate and that possibly his value is worth a 5th round pick. Of course Dallas has sucked since Jenkins was drafted as a #1 pick in 2008, and has suffered through numerous incompetent DC’s, including the illustrious “Coach Ryan”.
It might be that he can be coached up, and in the proper scheme, become a play-maker or even a game change. The foundation seems to be there for Jenkins, but who know if he can actually break out.
His 2009 stats match the best year Nnamdi (the no shut down, shut down corner) had in 2006.
April 27th, 2012 at 2:16 pm
We have too many half azzed dbs to evaluate & coach up already.
April 27th, 2012 at 2:17 pm
Jenkins showed too much quit in him in Wade’s last season there in Dallas to make me warm up to him.
Some of the stunts he pulled on the field were inexcusable.
April 27th, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Hes a #4 corner.. We have a few of those. No thanks.

Friend, I’ve watched this team since 1970, so I know all about Al’s legacy. He’s also responsible for the last 20 years of near futility.
##############################
Yeah, that was a bummer. Most teams do not get close but we lost a SB, got cheated out of going to another title game with one of our best teams and maybe the next best team missed going to the SB when fatarse goose intentionally injured a player.
That was a bummer in 92 when we came from behind and beat the Mules in overtime in the last game of the 93 season to get into the playoffs. I was at that game. What a blast that was. Then we beat them again in the playoffs before getting whipped by the bills.
Playoffs in 90,91,93,00,01,02 and he had us on track again to make the playoffs last season and beyond.

Man, that list of kids that we visited with don’t seem that impressive.
Not like we are going to draft a lot, or maybe any, so likely Reggie was positioning himself to be able to pounce on the undrafted ASAP.

I could see MacKenzie taking a chance on Jenkins if he was a FA and the price was right, but I don’t see him trading one of our few draft picks.
Just not his M.O.
April 27th, 2012 at 2:36 pm
Cork is a f’n idiot.
All he wants is cornerbacks and wide recievers.
Combine that with the fact that he hates #85 and you wonder how Cork even hosts a chat and people find him credible.
Championship teams are built from the inside out. Offensive and Defensive lines have always been and always will be the most important part of a team. Yet this douche wants us to get Mike Jenkins.
Al Davis would be proud of Corky.

April 27th, 2012 at 2:41 pm
Defensive lineman yes, offensive lineman no (as far as building through the draft).
Look at where most of the O-lineman were drafted for the Saints, Colts with Peyton, Giants, Steelers.
Bunch of mid-round picks and even some UDFA, with maybe one 1st or 2nd rounder mixed in.

Before Pouncey, I think it had been over 10 years since the Steelers spend a 1st or 2nd rounder on an O-lineman.
Giants are mostly comprised of 4th and 5th rounders. The Colts won a Super Bowl with a 2nd year LT who was a 6th round pick and played TE in college.
I don’t see championship teams built inside-out OFFENSIVELY anymore. The Giants got 1st rounders at QB and WR and all in their secondary.
But I agree on defense lineman. These championship teams invest a ton of top-tier draft picks on the D-line.

Didn’t seem to stop them from being one of the best teams in football the last decade.
The year they beat the Cardinals, their offensive line was horrendous.
April 27th, 2012 at 2:53 pm
Of course, you always have to improve your team. Not saying O-line isn’t important, but QB’s-RB’s and DB’s are running this league right now.
The Giants won the Super Bowl with the worst rushing offense in football and a 27th ranked defense.
But #2 ranked passing offense, and highest scoring team in the 4th quarter.

Yeah. Raiders gotta be ready if Carson goes down. You see what happened to Chicago with Cutler. It cost ‘em a trip to the SB two yrs. ago and the playoffs last yr. when he went down. That’s why Chi. is so excited about Campbell.
I was listening to Chi. sports radio yesterday and they asked Hub Arkush (of PFW) “If we had had Jason Campbell last year as our backup do the Bears make the playoffs?”
Hub: “Absolutely”. “Jason Campbell is the best backup Bears could’ve hoped for”.

I hear what your sayin, I even heard Polian on ESPN say he wouldn’t take a OT early in the draft and he would rather get Guards and Centers in later rounds.
April 27th, 2012 at 3:12 pm
Polian is a smart guy who had a lot of success.
Again, nothing wrong with having a beast O-line, but if that is your best hand you won’t get very far in today’s NFL.
You got to be able to sling it, and score with 1:15 left to go in the game.

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I’m convinced that the Draft is nothing more than a ploy of the NFL to stay relevant during baseball season, and the playoff run of both NBA and NHL especially since the advent of ESPN.

I would much rather have Jenkins than Bufict, if given the option.
Probably not the best comparision due to Jenkins probably getting picked in the next 30 minutes, and Burfcit might not in the next 30 hours.
But at least Jenkins balled out on the field, always. That’s the thing with Burfict, he wasn’t even really any good.
Total Kimbo Slice youtube following. The guy in the pink hair I think has KO’d Burfict already.
April 27th, 2012 at 3:54 pm
don’t forget that IF you trade Kelly, you’re essentially “receiving” a full-year of Lamarr Houston in return, along with $5 million in savings, and whatever draft pick you actually gain in the trade.
He’ll likely stay, and that’s fine, he’s a solid player. But there is a flip side to that coin.
April 27th, 2012 at 3:54 pm
Kelly had 10 fewer tackles than Huston.
Henderson, who played sparingly, had 5 fewer tackles than Kelly.
Bryant, 5 less tackles than Kelly, and 2 fewer sacks, as a non starter.
Yup. I’m down with trading the old 31 year old.
Damn, damn, my geographic disability, if only I were back in Alameda, I would hold sway.
You got me Bush. Damn.

Why would you trade a PROVEN Pro Bowl player for a 3rd round crap shoot? The Cheats took Alex McGee in the 3rd round a couple of years ago? Does that name ring a bell? Only if he is your waiter at your fave restaurant.

I think TK’s contract is FINALLY in-whack with his production.
Be kind of stupid internally, to keep him around for years with a ridiculously bloated salary-cap number, and than finally schlepp him off once it gets more reasonable.

I am a little iffy on this “PROVEN” Pro Bowler angle as well. He was an alternate, one of 8 years.
He is a very good interior pass-rusher, one of the best in the biz actuallly. I am not into getting rid of him unless the value is in line (3rd round or so)

Hes a #4 corner.. We have a few of those. No thanks.

I second that emotion. We need a CB who can be starter calibre. We have plenty of #4 corners. Unless Jenkins was #4 due to bad fit in Dallas and projects to #2 as good fit for Raiders, take a chance on a guy in the draft (fairly deep in mid-late round CB ) and sign Jenkins after he gets cut

Whether you loved and respected AL (RIP), or you absolutely despised him. One thing for sure as a RAIDER FAN you were in for one hell of a ride! Some may come close, but there will never, ever, be another FOOTBALL owner like Al Davis.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:03 pm
to break it down, IF you trade Kelly:
Trade Kelly for…
- a younger player (Houston) who is already performing at a HIGHER level.
- $5 million in savings per year for the next two years.
- More playing time from Desmond Bryant (near-equal talent)
- An actual player (draft pick, possible run-stuffing DT).
and you get rid of one part of the equation that has been part of our constant bottom-3 run defense for the last 7 years.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:04 pm
I fully expect whoever we pick at 95 to be starting, come week 1 this season. Reggie has to nail this pick. I think he will. He’s got to want his first pick to be someone who can make an impact.
No matter what, he will always be known as “Reggie’s 1st pick”, so let’s hope he is a career long Raider, who starts making plays from day 1.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:04 pm
Alzado,
as the article states, Jenkins fell to #4 only after the Cowboys signed Brandon Carr and drafted Claiborne.
No shame in that.
Cowboys’ 2012 #4 at a loaded position = Oakland’s starter.
It’s at least a viable argument.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:05 pm
- More playing time from Desmond Bryant (near-equal talent)

============================================
The reason I say “proven” is he was voted by the players and coaches as the best defensive player last year. If our record was better, he would be getting the accolades. Clearly pass rush DL are very valuable. A 2nd would be in order for that kind of player.

PFT has the Donks taking my RRS list pick Casay Hayward in the 2nd round, and said he may not be there.
So I will stick with my pick for general sakes, but since it is unlikely he will be there, I will move up my 4th rounder, Massaqoui or whatever from Troy, as our pick.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:10 pm
Colts select Cory Fleener, TE, Standford to team-up again with Luck.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:10 pm
We wont trade up. We wont play 3-4. We wont take a nt at 95..
April 27th, 2012 at 4:11 pm
My ORIGINAL mock board (YES I only make 1 Raider O)………
3rd- Casey Hayward, DB (Vandy)
Nobody else seems on board, but I love him if he is available. May have to schlepp off a future pick or player to have up a dozen or so spots to get him. If not, go with Chapman, but I think cover guys are a bigger need on this defense.
4th- Jonathan Massaquoi, OLB (Troy)
Never watched him play, but good measurables, and Troy seems to produce these OLB/DE hybrid types, and we desperately need an edge speed rusher. He shows up on a lot of the Blogs scouting department brainstorms.
5th- Kheeston Randall, DT/DE (Texas)
Guy who never quite lived up to his talents, but can rush the passer, and be versatile in our new 3-4/4-3 hybrid-type defense. Very good Senior Bowl.
5th- Nate Potter, OT (Boise State)
Probably played better than where he will be drafted, but didn’t measure out as big as would have liked. Insurance at LT, and ZBS type lineman.
6th- Tashuan Gipson, DB (Wyoming)
Decent size and can tackle, play special teams, and compete for the 12th starter on defense, the nickle corner.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:11 pm

Dropping science. Good breakdown.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:12 pm
Fleener’s a big receiver playing TE. Great hands, fast, can’t block. Sensible pick for Indy, giving Luck a security blanket.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:12 pm

Re” post #5 Nnamdi21 thanks for the info. I was trying to find out who the USC DL was, so he had an illness… is he okay now?
However,
Just because there has been buzz because draft eligible players had private visits to the Raiders doesn’t mean they will draft them. Most of these players are small college guys, non combine invites, or other players who got little other exposure (often these visits are to help the Raiders get a leg up on signing the as UDFAs); or visits from players who have injury issues (eg Josh Chapman). Many players say after the draft that they were chosen by teams who had shown little apparent interest. And just because someone visited doesn’t mean the Raiders were impressed with what they saw.

The Raiders main need is playmakers on defense. And to get potential playmakers with 3rd-late round picks, you usually need to take some gambles. So expect that the Raiders take some players that many consider high risk, then rationalize it in post draft explanations. That should be easy to do since it’s probably the only rational way to get the kind of players the Raiders need most. Note that Reggie Mac’s old team frequently gambled in the draft).
one thing I did was read a couple draft guides cover to cover and I got a pretty good idea of the depth and talent likely to be left at various Raiders need positions. Most of the supply analysis is on the top tier talent, what I did was on 3rd-7th round talent:
Specific current and upcoming Raiders needs entering 2012 draft, in order of priority, with draft supply and demand projections in rounds 3-6 where Raiders have picks)
LB at least 2 (draft supply=very good in mid-late rounds, demand=fairly high. Expect multiple Raiders picks/ variety)
NT/DT run stuffer (draft supply=poor in mid-late rounds, demand=high. Slim pickin’s. Reggie Mac said that if there is little depth at a position, they are likely to make a pick at that position rather than risk waiting till a later round. This is sometimes necessary but can also lead to reaching. If one of the better NTs is available at end of third round, don’t be surprised if the Raiders snatch him up. In round 3 or early 4, the talent is likely to drop drastically at this position)
another CB only if can add a projected starter at right price (draft supply=okay in later rounds, demand=high as always. Expect a gamble)
RB backups power back, goalline,& short yardage + double as special teams (draft supply = low for big backs in mid-late rounds, demand=fairly low)
edge rushers, either as starting LB, situational DE or LB, etc (draft supply=pretty deep mid-low rounds, demand=high as always. )
whatever fits into coaches defensive plan, which we really don’t know yet beyond basic set of “whatever fits our personnel maybe hybrid 4-3/3-4″.. Know what Knapp will want to do on offense more than what we’ll try to do on defense…unless you can tell us
backup QB (draft supply=weak mid – late rounds, demand=probably typical)
Possession / red zone WR (draft supply mid-late rounds = average, demand=probably typical)
TE who is potential starter/complete player, pass catchers to fit Greg Knapp’s offense + red zone threat (draft supply=very poor, demand=fairly high. NOT MUCH CHANCE OF GETTING A BARGAIN TE IN DRAFT ROUNDS 3-5. Best bet is Raiders may take a chance on someone with their last pick, and hope Ausberry develops)
young high upside FS and special teams (draft supply mid-late rounds= fair to poor, demand=probably typical)
PR (draft supply=fair, demand=probably typical)

Rams draft looks like our Madden ones after we spend 2 hours trading all our marginal players for draft picks.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:35 pm
JFB wants to sling it around but he doesnt think we need an O-line to do so. Whatever.
As for being worried about being banned by Cork, hell if I care. He’s two weeks behind on ever posting anything relevant anyways. No slander on my part, look up the definition of slander. If my “libel” actually does piss him off, its only cause its true.
Last year the guy kept saying during live game chats that he would bench our players if he was in charge. I kept asking him to name one player he would bench that would have an impact and straighten everyone else out, he couldnt name one. Yet he kept calling for benchings despite how thin our team was. The guy talks without thinking.
He doesnt have any inside information yet he speaks like he knows more than any of us. He’s just a guy with a blog. That’s it.
If I get banned I’ll keep posting….or better yet, Cork can start doing a better freaking job.
Draft for depth, trade for picks, sign free agents to plug holes, build from within. END OF STORY.

**************************
Never said that, just want an example of a championship team using top-draft picks to develop their O-line.
Don’t bother researching, it doesn’t exist.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:40 pm
But I do agree with you as far as the D-line.
Almost all the top-flight teams got multiple 1st rounders up there.
2nd most important position in football right now. About the only way you can stop these passing teams, have a beast D-line. DB’s can’t hold, LB’s can’t hang in coverage, and the whole play keep away and run the ball doesn’t matter, teams like the Giants, Saints, Packers, Pats can score in 1:45 seconds if they really need to.

Ha, Raiderjambo,
remember one of the few Joe Bugel highlights was the Raiders beating the Broncos in ‘07, and Bugel doing the salute at the end of the game.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:47 pm
Well this was fun to read regarding Broncos 2nd round pick:
Mel Kiper said he had a late first-round grade on Wolfe, who didn’t get much attention in the pre-draft discussion. Mike Mayock omitted Wolfe completely from a list of the best 68 players available after round one.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:48 pm
134.lol we need soo much help.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:49 pm
136. That (unfortunately) was probably the only Joe Bugel highlight.
April 27th, 2012 at 4:50 pm
Well, Bugel did do terribly enough that it allowed us to get Charles Woodson. I’d put that in Bugel’s wiki bio
April 27th, 2012 at 4:59 pm

JFB, show me where I said we have any top draft picks?
Corky is suggesting we use a 4th to go get a DB. A 4th that could be spent on our O-line so we can go sling it.
Teams are built from the inside out. Thats what I said. I said nothing about wasting top picks on O line but Im not against that either. Some great Olinemen have come from all over the draft and they are no less a gamble than d-lineman.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:14 pm
SD is getting Kendall Reyes apparently. Another very good pick for them.

*********************************
I think we should draft two DB’s.
Much more of an issue with this team than our O-line.
We could run the ball, and protected the QB decently. He were historically bad in pass defense.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:18 pm
Wow Devin Still is available. What’s his problem? He looks decent on tape.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:18 pm
Heard it’s medical issues with Still.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:19 pm
they all have very good offensive lines. brees has a million years to throw. the packers offensive line is excellent. and the giants line has played together forever.
you act as if these qb’s do it all by themselves. they need time to throw. that starts up front.
why you’d even argue otherwise is beyond me.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:20 pm
PEad gone to Rams
April 27th, 2012 at 5:20 pm
Maybe a sixth next year. But jenkins was toasted so much last year he should be served on the breakfast menu. I’ll pass on this year’s picks. . .

Pead killed it at the Senior Bowl.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:21 pm
“Since a dominant Outback Bowl performance to end the 2010 season — 3.5 tackles for loss against Florida center and Dolphins first-round pick Mike Pouncey — Still was convinced he’d make a living on Sundays.”
Wow, anyone that plays well against Pouncey is worthy of a pick at this level. Can he drop to the Raiders?
April 27th, 2012 at 5:21 pm
and you dont improve your pass defense by getting better db’s. you improve it by stopping the run, forcing obvious passing situations, and getting pressure on the quarterback. all of which can be done with a mediocre secondary.
we’ve had excellent secondaries in the past that added up to nothing because our interior line couldnt stop the run and get pressure on the qb.
the giants are a perfect example of how to beat todays modern offenses.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:22 pm
you act as if these qb’s do it all by themselves. they need time to throw. that starts up front.
**************************
QB’s do it all yes. Brees has a million years to throw because of his reads. Teams blitz more players than there is O-lineman to block, and still don’t touch him. How is that the O-line?
I think you could have sprinkled in some starters from Rutgers O-line into the Giants O-line, and they would have still won the Super Bowl.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:24 pm
Armstead is a frigging bull!!! Oh please Reggie. ..pick this Guy if you get the chance… that Guy probably goes in 1st or 2 nd round under normal circumstances. . Shoot I would give up a fifth and a sixth for him…USC definitely missed him..

huff 1st rounder
namdi all world
routt – above average
branch – 1st round talent
what did that get us? not a damn thing.
now compare our d-line to the giants. enuff said.
seriously, youve been playing too much madden on ur xbox if you think db’s are that valuable.
tell us again how qb’s do it all on their own. tell that to jay cutler. the bears have a cheap o-line and its done him wonders. or how about philip rivers last year? banged up oline but i guess he doesnt know how to read a d.
matt ryan, joe flacco, and rothlisberger all have two things in common. they one as rookies and their teams had excellent o-lines. rookies dont read defenses.
fast forward to this past year and how did rothlisberger do with a beat up line?
youre making this too easy jfb. go back to your xbox.

JPP is a fist rounder, Osi 2nd rounder, Tuck 3rd rounder.
Other 2nd and 3rd rounders in the mix.
As I said, D-line, 2nd most important postion in football, behind QB.
I would put secondary #3, and O-line somewhere around RB’s and kickers.

Rams got a good back in Pead. Had him in RRS poll. Thought there was a very slight chance he’d fall through the cracks, but don’t think Raids need to draft a RB anyway.
I understand the BPA mentality, but it might be a luxury the Raids can’t afford if the difference between prospects is slight.
Going into the season with just Slow, Curry, Brooks Goethel and Ihenacho is asking for trouble. Slow might be facing a suspension and if there’s an injury, Raids would struggle just to put 3 LBs on the field.
BPA ? Sure, makes sense – but there’s also the reality that the roster is paper thin at LB and IMO is the Raid’s most pressing need.

nah, no dierdorf needed. keep doing it the al davis way. big money on db’s and nevermind the o-line or d-line cause they dont matter.

i’ll be in spain next week and portugal after that and i probably wont be coming back to the states unless we make the playoffs. yeah, im on a permanent vacation and you are just some clown telling us all how an o-line doesnt matter. hahahaha. classic.

LT
RB/ LB
April 27th, 2012 at 5:51 pm
if reggie is smart he’ll draft o-line. like i said, you draft for depth.
we need linebackers more than anything. if he can find one that will make an impact, good luck. i’d rather get them via free agency.
our d-line can use some help but we have no good picks so good luck getting an impact d-lineman this late but if his gut says he can find one, then i trust his gut.
but we should not be drafting wr’s or db’s.
April 27th, 2012 at 5:51 pm
You can use Euro’s to pay off your bet if you need to.
Such a world traveler and tough guy would surely relish the opportunity to take my money.
Not asking to compare incomes, just asking to place a simple wager behind your debate.

Barnes & Carlisle are the vets of the bunch. Cooper is an iron man, who has only missed like 1 start in the last 10 years. Barnes is crap, but we have last year’s rookie Barksdale waiting in the wings.

April 27th, 2012 at 5:54 pm
BPA.
They can’t afford to do anything but find the best player on their board and choose that guy. Worst thing you can do is draft for need. If you pass up better players to fill a need, and the “need” pick busts, then not only do you not have a player who can contribute but you still need to fill that need.

213,
what does betting on what reggie will do prove? i never said what he would or wouldnt do. you on the other hand threw that in there for whatever reason.
he should stay away from mike jenkins. and stay away from any other db’s in this draft.
asking me to bet on his gut feeling has no bearing on anything. but then again, if gambling is how you made your ‘real money’ then you got me there cause gambling isnt my forte.

Raider Riff,
Some wine, some cheese and bread, and the draft. Does it get any better?
I think the most important position in football is the QB, and that’s why they get paid all that money, and they usually get drafted 1st.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:01 pm
whats available right now with regards to lb’s or dt’s?
anything of possible value left on the board?
April 27th, 2012 at 6:01 pm
Ravens & 49ers appreciate fat slob NT’s
hope Alameda & Josh dont go in RD2
April 27th, 2012 at 6:02 pm

GREAT DRAFT FOR EAGLES .. they should win NFC EAST THIS YEAR
April 27th, 2012 at 6:03 pm
Sigh……so we go round and round with no way to settle things?
A simple wager, would (A) shut us both up until the pick(s) and (B) put a little credibility behind either of our arguments.
And it will also prove what our GM thinks is more important to our team, or at least a more important hole to fill.
We already signed a zillion DB’s, I am thinking there is great value on O-lineman +150.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:03 pm
I’d be more concerned about Jets, Steelers, and Panthers taking NTs.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:03 pm
Eagles need a QB to win that division.
Vick healthy for 9 weeks won’t cut it.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:04 pm
Vick will Never win a SB!
Print that!

isn’t that what everybody said last year ??

April 27th, 2012 at 6:04 pm
Vick healthy for 16 games is not going to cut it either. They need a better QB to win it all.

raider o,
does the bread in france get any better? if so, i havent had it and ive been everywhere. no wine for me today but i did have some excellent cheeses and seafood.
as for your assesment of qb’s. i wouldnt measure their paycheck as their actual value. its the most marketable position yes, but not necessarily the most important. remember, trent dilfer and doug williams have won superbowls thanx to great o-lines and even better defenses. elway couldnt win one till he had an o-line that made terrel davis look like gayle sayers.
the browns have been wasting draft picks on qbs since tim couch. and they will contiue to until they get an o-line and defense worth a damn. qb’s can be found all over the board, why? because qb’s are developed, not drafted. and you cant develop a qb if he’s running for his life all the time.

THEir D was sorry they effed up when they converted that O guy into D coordinator, n they had no one to stop the run and their LB’ers sucked … i think they fix that .. they will b favorites to win NFC East.. not superbowl just saying NFC EAST
April 27th, 2012 at 6:06 pm
If the Eagles make the playoffs, it will be in large credit to their elite DB’s and WR’s.

Browns drafted a stud LT and C in the 1st round the last two years. Pro Bowl players already. They just drafted a T in the top of the 2nd this year.
They might not win 4 games next year.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:09 pm
Well my friend, I got to hope on this flight.
Not going to France however.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:09 pm
@M20
Eagles will probably win a bunch of games and then fold when it matters
G-Men get hot when they need to
2012/2013 will be the same way. Philly starts fast. then busts. Giants start slow, then have a late season surge
April 27th, 2012 at 6:10 pm
jfb, there is great value on taking that bet.
but the problem with that bet is A, it doesnt settle our debate. it only proves who is better at guessing reggies next move and B, without knowing reggies tendencies its a dumb bet on both our parts.
if i had to guess, i’d say he’s going to pick a linebacker. we need it the most, and its a lb deep draft.
personally, i’d still go with the best dlineman available. they can have an immediate impact as its not the most difficult position to learn unlike linebacker.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:10 pm
Niners got a good RB.. But they won’t b good this year.. RAMS will beat em out lol

smart, offense wasn’t the issue last season
Raiders should operate the same way, first 3 picks on DEFENSE!!
April 27th, 2012 at 6:16 pm
Raider Riff,
I understand your point of view, and you are right about Dilfer and Williams, but those were special situations IMO. Ravens had an elite defense (top 10 all time), and they replaced Dilfer with a rookie after that SB. Look at Dan Marino. One of the best QBs to play the game, and he never won a SB. I agree that a QB can’t win by himself, but I can’t think of any position that is more important than QB. Imagine how many more SB that Ravens team would have won if they had a good QB. Look at the elite teams in the NFL, and you will see that they all have PB QBs. Colts with Manning, Saints, Pats, Giants, and GB.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:16 pm
Alfonzo Dennard CB was recently arrested charged with hitting a cop. He won’t be drafted before round 4 imo
April 27th, 2012 at 6:16 pm

raider o,
the ravens could have won more superbowls with trent. he was a leader.
i believe they went with elvis grbac after dilfer. then they went with boller. both huge mistakes but c’mon, boller just sucks. a good friend of mine was a fb at cal at the time of boller and he’s got some great stories of just how bad the guy was.
look at all the examples you gave and all those teams have good dlines and olines. now, i dont think that a qb is less valuable than any particular single position. but as a unit, the dline and oline are more important to me. i will take the giants dline over eli manning any day of the week. but would i take justin tuck over eli? no way.
we significantly upgraded our qb last season and it still did us no favors. why? we cant stop the run. our defense needs major help. part of dumbass romac’s problem is that he’s got a higher IQ than the rest of our LB corps combined. he’s out there thinking too much about whether the guys next to him are doing their jobs.
fix our LB corps and we go deep into the playoffs the last two seasons.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:28 pm
As of now I am liking the Rams and the Bucs drafts. They are getting really solid players and acquiring a good amount of picks, especially the Rams. They got a whole lot for that #2 overall

April 27th, 2012 at 6:31 pm
the patriots have proved that cb’s and wr’s mean squat.
theyve routinely let their db’s go once they asked for big money. and they couldnt win it with moss or ochocinco yet they did win it all back when they (were cheating) and when they had a no-name receiving corps.
and the pats are no special case. plenty of teams have won superbowls without great wr’s.
April 27th, 2012 at 6:31 pm

we get some smarter LBs in there and we will see a different romac.
i still think he has bad hips, is an idiot off the field, and not fast enough and in good enough shape, but he does have a high football IQ. that was his strength in college. he just happened to get drafted to a team that has nothing but “athletes” on it.

April 27th, 2012 at 6:56 pm
Brandon Thompson (NT/DT Clemson)is a guy who was predicted to be gone by now but I’m taking a look at his scouting report and he sounds awfully good.
DE/LB Ronnell Lewis Oklahoma has some potential/high risk or maybe actual problem with anemia, “sickle cell anemia trait” recently discovered. I’m not a doctor…but this kind of scares me. They say he “wears down late in games” and going to a 16 game pro schedule, he may be too big of a gamble

James-Michael Johnson still available.
Marvin Jones is, too. As well as Sanu.

Best defender available should be our pick. No offensive player on board is more valuable to us than many defenders we have a shot at at this point

Spence. Nice pic
April 27th, 2012 at 7:34 pm
Spence could be a good fit there. Reminds me of Timmons. Will potentially replace Foote.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:34 pm
Spence off the board
April 27th, 2012 at 7:34 pm
I just looked up the Clemson kid, Brandon Thompson. Is he still available?
April 27th, 2012 at 7:34 pm
Spence off board. LBs gone. NT has to fall to us
April 27th, 2012 at 7:35 pm
Im starting to get a semi chub thinking taammuu might be there
April 27th, 2012 at 7:35 pm
I thought the Steelers would go with Chapman.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:36 pm
9 more to go; gotta be a nose tackle …
April 27th, 2012 at 7:36 pm
Lol mark. Is that hair gel?
April 27th, 2012 at 7:37 pm
I guess the Eagles didn’t want Colt McCoy THAT much!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:38 pm
Sparking good juck joint
April 27th, 2012 at 7:38 pm
Saints probably take T’aamu

April 27th, 2012 at 7:42 pm
Watch NE take Brandon Thompson.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:42 pm
Wow, Hicks? Really?
April 27th, 2012 at 7:42 pm
Getting close to 95 guys….my pick still available ….Brandon Thompson from Clemson
April 27th, 2012 at 7:43 pm
Hicks I had down as a 5th rounder. Good player, but cut his teeth against inferior competition.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:43 pm
“sleeper” DL Akiem Hicks already awoken and off board
April 27th, 2012 at 7:43 pm
Id be hapy with tamuuu or massie
April 27th, 2012 at 7:43 pm
Ta’amu/Chapman/Thompson –
one of them should be there …
April 27th, 2012 at 7:44 pm
Bequette off the board to NE. Good pick, a little earlier than I thought he’d go. Good fit there.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:44 pm
Massoquoi a possibility, as well
April 27th, 2012 at 7:44 pm
NE 4/4 picks on D.. BUT they will suck again
April 27th, 2012 at 7:45 pm
Raiders are going to have their pick of some solid players.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:46 pm
Bequette gone…that sucks
April 27th, 2012 at 7:46 pm
I feel kinda vindicated regarding Nick Foles. Posted in here back in early Fall that he looked like a pretty good prospect and was told “not so much “. Looks like he graded out pretty well after all.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:46 pm
Colts here. Maybe Ta’amu or Chapman.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:46 pm
Colts are definitely picking Thompson or TaAmu
April 27th, 2012 at 7:47 pm
Why has massie dropped?
April 27th, 2012 at 7:47 pm
Good evening draft junkies! So far just Bequette off the board of my wishlist.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:47 pm
I do not want Crick! He is overrated.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:47 pm
COLTS BENGALS GIANS, either of them could pick any DT we want
April 27th, 2012 at 7:48 pm
We need Brandon Thompson or Massaquoi!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:48 pm
Bengals already went DT. Giants going DT wouldn’t surprise me with Canty and Bernard getting older. Colts will probably look NT or OLB/ILB.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:49 pm
So, we have the Friday night Mr. Irrelevant pick. Is Chapman going to be the pick? We desparaely need a NT & LB’ers (multiple). A good OG is not a bad decision either.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:49 pm
McK gonna pick NT Taamu, NTChapman, or DT Thompson probably.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:49 pm
Think nfl network will give us any love when we pick?
April 27th, 2012 at 7:50 pm
I like the way Chris Berman says THe RAAAIIIIIDEERS
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
Good spot for the Raiders to be in.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
The NFL Network will never give us any love — get over it!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
Massie or taamu
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
I don’t think Taamu is our guy. I want Thompson!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
I have the CBS draft ticker on and they have our needs as DT,QB,CB,TE… no LB???
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
Bengals got Thompson.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:51 pm
Indy will do everything to surround Luck with talent around him .. I thought their D sucked last year
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
Effin’ Bengals!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
ouch
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
Taamu or massie! Come on reg!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
We are ON THE CLOCK
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
Interesting that the Colts go WR — I guess Luck will be throwing to anybody and everybody!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
WE ARE ON THE CLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
McK gonna pick NT Taamu, NTChapman, or DT Thompson probably or maybe OLB Lewis
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
darn it Brandon Thompson off the board. Alameda Ta’amu will be a better pro and we’ll get him
April 27th, 2012 at 7:52 pm
You are so right tbone
April 27th, 2012 at 7:53 pm

It’s been a long wait, lets hope it is worth it.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:53 pm

April 27th, 2012 at 7:53 pm
I really don’t want Crick.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Ta’amu, Chapman, or Massaquoi!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Alameda Ta’amu NT/DT Washington
Hebron Fangupo NT/DT BYU
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Fangupo will be there in the 5th.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
430. I disagree, we will soon find out if we get Alameda.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Please do NOT take a CB Reggie! Ugh
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
Ta’amu or Massie! Lets go Raiders!
I’m smoking my lucky marijuana!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:54 pm
RAIDERS ON THE CLOCK >> GET YOUR POPCORNS READY
April 27th, 2012 at 7:55 pm
Crick would be a good pick!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:55 pm
I like Massaquoi, but I thought he would be around awhile.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:55 pm
If the Giants don’t get him, I’d go Ronnell Lewis here.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:56 pm
EXCITED<< DON"T disappoint me REG
April 27th, 2012 at 7:56 pm
Lewis
Ta’amu

April 27th, 2012 at 7:56 pm
Wynn, Crick or Taamu….maybe Lewis.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:57 pm
I do not think Taamu will be good.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:57 pm
Massie or Ta’amu! RAIDERS!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:57 pm
Great! Ta’amu and Chapman are both still on the board .. DO IT! DO IT!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:57 pm

April 27th, 2012 at 7:57 pm
I do not want Chapman; the guy has a bum knee!
April 27th, 2012 at 7:57 pm
LETS SEE WHO REGGIE THiNKS CAN PLAY FOOTBALL
April 27th, 2012 at 7:58 pm
Wow, Tony Bergstrom.
April 27th, 2012 at 7:58 pm

WARCH THY CRY’N START NOW..
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Well we got our RT, would have taken Massie if we were going OL
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
I BET Nobody predicted this pick
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Coops replacement..= bpa
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
At least he can play RG or RT…especially in the ZBS.
Good pick…but I wanted DT, or OLB
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Are you kidding me Ta’amu would have been perfect
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Anyone have him? LOL! FFS, oh well does mean they think Barksdale is gonna play guard?
April 27th, 2012 at 8:00 pm
Yeah baby!! Sewing up that O line!!. Unstoppable with DMAC blowing through the huge holes left by Bergstrom
April 27th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
I hope Chapman or Massaquoi are available when we pick in the 4th.
I don’t like this pick.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
None of you know who the guy is yet you’re pissed!!!
Come on y’all hip hip hooray!!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
I expected to be surprised to a certain extent. Don’t know much about Bergstrom, though.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
Well I was wrong
April 27th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
OK well Hopefully he’s a starter that will give Palmer alots of time to throw and open a lot of holes for Mcfadden
April 27th, 2012 at 8:01 pm
Alameda fits a 3-4 or 4-3 and we are going to be running hybrid aren’t we? Better not regret passing up on him
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Okay, I’ll go with it .. good night guys. Here’s hoping we go defense tomorrow!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Booooooooo
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
387 ypg given up last season…
take an OL with 1st pick.
new GM. same stupidity.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Zombie Al has risen from the dead!!!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
I mean Palmer is the most importanr player on our team and so is DMAC… This protects them both
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Bergstrom is not very explosive, almost weak for an offensive lineman. He doesn’t get much of a jolt when working off the ball and struggles to get much movement in the run game. Again, he is not a very aggressive blocker, acting as more of a catcher who uses his feet and hands to react and mirror. He is reliable, big and a student of the game, but won’t blow anyone away in the NFL.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
As bad as our defense was, I just didnt see offense as the biggest need

I wasted my Saturday morning for a Guard?
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Very anti-climactic…not surprised he was taken, just in what round. I agree with Raider O, I hope Chapman or Alameda and Massaquoi are available at 129
“A big, strong tackle prospect with some short area quickness for his size. But struggles with flexibility in pass protection and looks limited in what he can offer an NFL offense. However, looks more coordinated and plays lower as a guard and looks like that is where his future lies in the NFL.”
-Wes Bunting, National Football Post
April 27th, 2012 at 8:02 pm
The kid is an outstanding talent who came off a mission and can fit the scheme we want to play. You cannot ignore what works for you because a bunch of fans don’t agreee…………..period
April 27th, 2012 at 8:03 pm
Can’t get enough offensive lineman. Still trusting Big Reg
April 27th, 2012 at 8:03 pm
484-YEP.LOL
April 27th, 2012 at 8:03 pm
If Ta’amu is still around, very possible Chapman will be around in the 4th. Or they’re targeting other players. We’ll see soon enough. Very interesting though. Expected OL to be play, but hard to know how they evaluate OL.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:03 pm
an ol i wont complain but will question…as a zone blocking o these linemen are easier to find since only a few teams are looking for these sizes….
April 27th, 2012 at 8:03 pm
Im happy. Hopfully he can start at guard or tackle
April 27th, 2012 at 8:03 pm
Chapman will probably be available late in the 4th while Alameda is not a good fit in a 4-3
April 27th, 2012 at 8:04 pm
Reggie following his board.
I’m always down with some O-line.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:04 pm
I LIKE THIS PICK!
I didn’t want to see Carlisle start again. Veldheer, Bergstrom, Wiz 2.0, Brisiel & Barksdale or Barnes. That’s a very solid O-line. Much better than last year. We’ve got to protect Palmer & open hole for DMac. Overall, a good decision for Reggie.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:04 pm
Good solid pick.
-Jon Gruden
April 27th, 2012 at 8:05 pm
OK might not be the sexy pick but i guess Reggie thinks he could get that D talent in round 4 … I’m get we won’t have to wait long for that to happen … Rounds 4-7 start tomorrow at 9 PM Pacific
April 27th, 2012 at 8:05 pm
woot Reggie is smarter than all of you!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:05 pm
still boring as heck….reggie fails
April 27th, 2012 at 8:06 pm
Positives: Mature, seasoned right tackle. Has the agility, technique and size to contribute early in his professional career. Quick, active hands to latch on to defenders. Adequate foot quickness to remain outside. Can get to the second level with surprising agility when adjusting to moving defenders. Underrated athleticism, agility, balance and even straight-line speed to contribute. Impressed at guard and tackle at the Senior Bowl. Negatives: Susceptible to speed rushers. Has only average quickness off the snap and doesn’t possess the acceleration or arm length to corral defenders once they cross his face. Anticipates speed rushers attacking the edge and will over-set to the outside, leaving inside rushing lanes wide open for defenders to jab-step outside and re-direct through the gap.
Drops his head too often on contact, which causes problems against swim moves. Went on a two-year LDS mission following high school and will turn 26 in August
April 27th, 2012 at 8:06 pm
Here’s a quote from our new right offensive tackle:
…(Your best strengths?) I’m a finisher. You watch me on film and I finish players not just plays.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:06 pm
you know where Reggies’ at. Wants to protect Palmer. So he got the big guy. Reggie Mac Code Black!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:07 pm
Dude is a Moron? Super….
April 27th, 2012 at 8:07 pm
Priest, most of us were looking for defense at # 95. I haven’t even looked at Bergstrom. I trust in Reggie. I think Chapman, Taamu, and Crick are not good for us.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:07 pm
At least it wasnt a db.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:08 pm
yea priest, we cannot judge this quite yet. did read he isn’t much of a blocker, but is athletic in space. perfect for a ZBS. it’s possible that Barksdale doesn’t fit the system and we CANNOT go with Barnes again if we want a consistent offense… we will see.
Ta’amu, Chapman, Martin …. they should be there in the 4th. we will know how serious they are about a 3-4 after tomorrow.
i think if Spence is still there, that’s the pick.. they need linebackers very badly..
April 27th, 2012 at 8:08 pm
That’s his job, Dakota! You have to take what is best available to you, and Mike Martin was gone!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:09 pm
Bergstrom good fit ZBS. But we need D D D D D

We got one of the worse DEFENSES IN THE NFL!!!!!!!!
And we’ll continue to have the WORSE DEFENSE if we don’t get playmakers!!!!!!!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:10 pm
We need as much O-Line help.
All the great teams have good O-line depth…..

Plunket,
Yes, he is an LSD, Joseph Smith fan…you know, Moron. Like Steve Young.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:11 pm
NFLDraftScout.com predicted that the Ravens would draft Bergstrom. The Ravens always draft well so maybe this is a good pick. I’m still hoping we trade for Osi because his services are really needed.

Please do not judge the guy based on religion. We had an awesome tight end from BYU named Todd Christensen.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:19 pm
You cannot have enough depth on the offensive line. Bergstrom is our guy now!
April 27th, 2012 at 8:20 pm
they are a pure zone blocking team now.
funny how that’s the opposite of what Al wanted for this club. when they went pure power blocking, things were better than ever. hopefully this new direction has them playing even better! pass proection is key for Carson.
April 27th, 2012 at 8:22 pm
I live in Utah and love the Utes. This guy will be good for the Raiders. Get as many Morons on the team as you want just don’t let one into the White House. Pleaseeeeeee!!!!! Romney can not sustain his block and is lousy in the ZBS anyway.
