By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Monday, June 4th, 2012 at 2:04 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Text of release from Raiders:
Raiders fullback Marcel Reece has signed his exclusive-rights tender, the team announced Monday. The veteran participated in the Raiders’ Organized Team Activities (OTAs) with his teammates on Monday.
The 6-foot-2, 250-pound Reece has played in 30 career games with 16 starts since joining the Silver and Black as an undrafted free agent in 2008. His career totals include 54 receptions for 654 yards and five touchdowns, and 47 carries for 234 yards and one touchdown.

@Bcz
Al Davis always thought you could teach a guy how to play football, but you couldn’t teach him how to outrun a cheetah
That puts a big burden on the coaching staff imo
with coaches, often times you get what you pay for.
pay coaches peanuts, then tell them what to do & undermine them. Give them the most raw players in the league and tell’em to produce right away
Poor Sanjay.

Reece needs to get his ass to practice. He’s already behind.
June 4th, 2012 at 2:11 pm
Reece and Ausberry come out in their normal positions, the shift out to WR. Knapp better have something like that in the playbook!
June 4th, 2012 at 2:13 pm
This is good news.
You knew it was coming eventually but there’s always that tiny bit of consternation that he was gonna wait too long and get too far behind.
The dude can play….and…he knows it. That was the problem.

@Jhill
I thought WR was thier natural position?
they CONVERTED to FB & TE, respectively
June 4th, 2012 at 2:17 pm
Just put on my Marcel Dionne jersey, got a serious BJ from one of my favorite Spearmint Rhino strippers and toasted the Reese signing with an ice cold margarita from the PARTYDUDE 8000
That’s what I call a Triple Crown Line, word
Now I got a meeting with Yazuhiro, 2 Kewl 4 Skool’s famed Japanese pube stylist, to go over a new pube ‘do for our next show
All I know is this one involves a lit tiki torch and the music of The Pointer Sisters

I’ve defended Hue…you know, by using the whole “1st yr. coach, losing Nfl’s leading rusher as well as team owner and GM, key receivers and starting QB” excuse, but Hue should have used Reece more often.
Reece would make a great play and then be taken out out of the mix…never to be seen again.
I think DA knows what Reece can do, and will plan accordingly.

I think Reece decided that he wanted to resume his NFL career and get paid for it.
the alternative was neither, sit out for the year and be stuck in the same spot next offseason.
Marcel isn’t the smartest guy, I take it.
skipping OTA’s didn’t sit well with Reggie & Dennis. He wasn’t “excused”
June 4th, 2012 at 2:28 pm
Yo DJ thanks for the tip brah (get it, like the tip of your weiner)
Dude the PM Party Patrol now has 11 full time gang members. This weekend we waged blog warfare on KrappyRat and lit up the old fool
Speaking of 2 Kewl 4 Skool, I’m working on an anthem to capitalize on the King’s Stanley Cup Run
I can see this making us tons of $ on iTunes that can be allotted for weed, strippers and more weed and definitely more strippers
Will hit you back after I drop a quick duece, this one feels watery with a few peanuts floating in the riptide
June 4th, 2012 at 2:29 pm
good move Reece
June 4th, 2012 at 2:30 pm
Can Reece and Aus, potentially be used the way The Cheatriots use Rob Gron and Hernandez?
June 4th, 2012 at 2:30 pm
Yeah Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 4th, 2012 at 2:32 pm
Reece is 1 of the most underated players in the AFC West. He will have an interesting role in the new scheme and screen game. Love his value paired with Schmitt as a bruiser. Smash and Dash at FB position. Knapp will consult with Saunders and Reece will get those 3-5 touches a game.
June 4th, 2012 at 2:32 pm
Thanks, Len!
June 4th, 2012 at 2:35 pm
Reece… Reece is a piece…
He’s signed His deal
OTA’s and Training Camp are now for real.
A new Zone scheme and many moving parts…
Reece is a piece….this is were it starts.
June 4th, 2012 at 2:35 pm

If we don’t take advantage of Reece and Ausberry against LBs, we have the wrong guy calling plays.

@ J Hill
Knapp is our play caller. Suspect.
Saunders hopefully is heavily involved.
Then again, Palmer ran a no-huddle after 1 week of pratice last year. I think Palmer will be able to change plays before the snap to his liking.

Reece is a fat wide receiver
he’s got teeth like bucky the beaver
bout time he joins the friggin team
Schmitt trucking fools with a head full of steam
Tonga is injured so that works in his favor
Marcel can’t block, cuz he’s got no flavor
Can’t sit out and expect to get paid
Broke dude like him ain’t gettin’ laid
Tried to get cute and make a bold statement
Reggie’s about to kick him to the pavement
Dennis Allen said get to work big boy
So Knapp can make use of his new shiny toy
June 4th, 2012 at 2:43 pm
If you hit flush just as you drop Dawg it minimizes back splash and cuts down on brown stains around the bowl.

I brought it up in the last post. I’ll take the over at 13. If it was 12 1/2 I’d take the under.

If you’re interested in applying for gang membership in the 11 member strong PM Party Patrol, you’ll need to submit a fresh diss rap on the blog for consideration
After that you must swear to defend our gang’s blog turf against KrappyRat and his miniature sidekick Peemore Bust, the Genius Gays Gang (Madden Retard & Albert Puss) and any other lame gang that tries to step
Then give your allegiance to partying, getting it on with wasted strippers, bad movies on VHS and the almighty green ganja RASTAFARI

Back in the old days, in Cali the legal limit was .1,

If it is a 3rd and 8 late in the 4th quarter, I don’t who the depth chart says, I would rather Mike Huff line up in the slot on a guy than DVD, Chekwa or even Spencer.
June 4th, 2012 at 3:18 pm
McSkinnyLegs has as much chance to play in more than 12 games as the Charlotte Bobcats do of making the NBA finals next season.
Vegas put the over/under at 8.5 games (including any playoffs) months ago.
Perhaps the 12 games include preseason games he won’t play in. Hell it’ll be a minor miracle if McInjury isn’t IR’d by game 1.
June 4th, 2012 at 3:18 pm
We might have replacement referees this up upcoming season. I hope they don’t continue the “tradition” of making it rain penalty flags on our boys.
June 4th, 2012 at 3:20 pm
Huff played in the slot with Giordano at FS last season, but with the new DB I was wondering if we wll keep Huff there, havent read anything. Spencer lined up there with SF I think.

Marcel Reece has reached that cusp of NFL truth. the 3.5 year career truth.
a UDFA who found a niche, showed he can be very productive, will he somehow continue to carry on and excel or flame out as have so many before?

Well considering last year was the first year DMC didn’t play in atleast 12 games I will go with the odds and say over.
June 4th, 2012 at 3:28 pm
The Raiders have play makers on O at every position.
It’s all on Knapp to find the favorable match ups and put the ball in the right hands,
Reece can be a big part of that.

Doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results is…insanity.
June 4th, 2012 at 3:31 pm
Im not a fan of Reese sitting out. With no leverage, and a new GM that isnt playing games, that was just plain stupid.
Reese accomplished absolutely nothing positive. He’s now behind. He’s one of our better weapons and he will be playing catchup and this may have an effect on how he is utilized this year.
We’ve never used this guy to his potential. And now he finally has his chance and he blows it. Just stupid. He needs to fire his agent. Bad advice all the way around.
Get ur a55 in camp, get some plays developed around you, have a breakout year, get paid…. or…. sit out and sabotage your season in a contract year.

DMAC does make some vicious cuts when he runs and usually a stiff-arm at the same time. I didn’t believe turf toe was bad until it happened to me. Foot hurt for about 6 months. I wish I could say I was playing RB in the NFL when it happened. lol

Of Darren’s 45 career games, he has 8 when he had 5 or less touches, and 3 games with 25 or more touches.
MJD, Foster, these type of guys get 3 games of 25 touches every month almost.

Brah, if you’d been on the blog 3 or 4 years ago you would’ve seen KrappyRat routinely post the link to his web site all the time which had plenty of personal info
But of course, the old goat ONLY talks Raider football
There was a great picture of the old fool standing in a field of overgrown weeds, claiming it was his land in Switzerland
Also there’s a hilarious shot of the goofball driving a rental car in a parade, claiming it was his “shiny red corvette”
Plus a great shot of KrappyWife & Her Bowl Cut in a pair of bermuda shorts posing with a bunch of horny African tribesman
I don’t care whether Krappy is white black or green, but the nerd needs to lose some serious weight
June 4th, 2012 at 3:45 pm
Now Marcel time to master the art of blocking. Maybe Ausberry and Reece can do some after practice work with the coaches. Its all that’s holding those two kids back. From Hawaii that is….
June 4th, 2012 at 3:45 pm
Len,
Normally I’d agree with you. But we have weapons at every position that are going to demand touches. All those guys were in camp early getting a head start with the coaches. That should worry Reece.
I have no doubts that he will catch up as far as learning the playbook. What Im worried about is whether the coaches have already gone in a different direction. When you look at our receivers and our running backs, Reece is already on the outside looking in when it comes to getting plays called for him.
He did himself no favors. DA made that clear.
I hope it works out. But Reece hasnt made it easy on himself. We’ll see how it plays out.
If another season goes by where we are wondering why he didnt get utilized more, we’ll know why.

No doubt about having lost touch as a “favorite”
If he makes plays when given the opportunity, and provides “win” in match ups, Knapp will call His number.
I expect that the staff is not blind to winning strategy.
Hue blew it with Reece imo.

@110 Yep exactly, hopefully this year we score more as the game progresses. Give the alternate backs more reps in the first half, depending on the score.
June 4th, 2012 at 4:11 pm
I thought Knapp appreciates the FB position, and that’s why J Griffith used to follow him everywhere. Raiders then Seattle after he played for him in Atl.
Reece is better than Griffith.
June 4th, 2012 at 4:13 pm
Thats wuzup reece is a beast with the lack of a proven TE i can see him lining up at TE with Schmith at FB in some packages. 2 more months till preseason with raida news speeding up in about 6 weeks. #RAIDERNATION
June 4th, 2012 at 4:13 pm
Reece is definitely a versatile guy, should make Knapp wonder what else he can do out there to contribute imo. And I think he is better than Griffith all day
June 4th, 2012 at 4:14 pm
Hue was trying to protect that crap of a D.
That, imo, was a part of some of the schit he dialed up.
But, He didn’t find ways to compensate for the loss of McFadden and Jones.
Reece should have been a part of that mix.
June 4th, 2012 at 4:15 pm
Before you say dmacs injuriess were “flukes” and wont happen again remember he’s had 2 major foot injuries. Thats no fluke. Thats weak feet.. Im praying he plays his first solid season as a starter..
June 4th, 2012 at 4:18 pm
Do you think Reece will see more running, less passing plays using the zone blocking scheme? I hope he still gets his shots outside.
June 4th, 2012 at 4:19 pm
NEW!~ 06-04-12: REECE BACK IN BLACK
Oaklands FB/WR is the Leagues most dangerous Hybrid and now that hes signed his tender, he is back on the field and back in black.

Reece can catch, he can run, and he is a capable blocker.
If I was a coach, Ideal situation FOR ME:
-DMAC: 16 rushes, and 3-4 catches, around 20 touches/ game
-Reece: 3-5 rushes, and 3-5 catches, 6-10 touches.
-Moore: 5-7 catches, and targeted 6-8 times.
-DHB: 3-5 catches, targeted 4-6 times.
-Ford: 3-5 catches, targeted 4-6 times, and 1-2 reverse /(other plays) to get the ball in his hands.
60/ 40 pass heavy offense.

When you miss time, there isnt time during the season to design packages for you. The in-season work weeks are too short.
That is why Im worried about Reece at the moment. I hope my worries just turn out to be nothing. But he has a lot of competition, he could easily get lost in the shuffle again.
Hue could have done more, but you gotta gameplan around the guys you know will be there. Not the guys who cant be replaced. It’s not like there is a backup that can come in and play Reeces position if he goes out during a game in which 5-10 plays were designed for him.

Managing injuries and staying healthy and on-the-field is what diferentiates the great from the really good, IMO.
As of right now, Darren McFadden is Kerry Wood. Will have the greatest game you may ever see, but can only play the whole year 1 out of 4 years, and simply can’t be relied upon at the end of the season.
They more often than not are spitting seeds on the sidelines while his team is trying to manage without them down the stretch.

Bought the wife a white #17 for X-Mas.
She decided he was her favorite player in the preseason. Calls him “Lion King” because of his frosted tips that look like a mane, I guess.
She is a decent talent evaluator. Hated Jamarcus, was lukewarm on Soup, hates Seymour, loves Ford and D-Moore, and thought Fargas was insane.

@Bcz
Al Davis always thought you could teach a guy how to play football, but you couldn’t teach him how to outrun a cheetah
That puts a big burden on the coaching staff imo
with coaches, often times you get what you pay for.
pay coaches peanuts, then tell them what to do & undermine them. Give them the most raw players in the league and tell’em to produce right away
=====================
I think Jamarcus actually changed Al’s view a little bit. He kept looking for the biggest, fastest guy, but started also looking for work ethic more. And that changed things quite a bit and he had better drafts after that.
Because it was very very hit or miss with the biggest fastest guy. Sometimes it turned out great because the guy was smart and a hard worker (like Nnamdi). But, I think he realized with Jamarcus that no matter how much they had in the tangibles department if they didn’t work hard for it, it didn’t matter what the coaches did with them.
June 4th, 2012 at 6:17 pm
If you heard Jamarcus talk about his contract as if he had been “Blessed by Winning the Lottery” then you would know he had mailed it in on 1st reciept of his Pay! That is how he carried himself as if he had already accomplished something! Truth be told

But do you guys remember we were up 12 with 7 minutes and change to go in the game. We had just scored, and Jackson sends out Jano to make it a 13 point lead. He does not go for two. The difference between 12 and 13 really is negligible. 14 beats you. And it did.

The knock on Russell coming out of LSU was the fact that he would not condition himself in the offseason and would let himself go. In other words he was lazy and not driven. That was incredibly evident once the Raiders drafted him. And that is on him.

But do you guys remember we were up 12 with 7 minutes and change to go in the game. We had just scored, and Jackson sends out Jano to make it a 13 point lead. He does not go for two. The difference between 12 and 13 really is negligible. 14 beats you. And it did.

Come to think of it I don’t think there was a single Raider win last yr. that we didn’t all sweat it out at the end. Most of ‘em shouldn’t have even been close.

People changed but Davis didn’t. That was his downfall. In the 60’s and 70’s, players wanted freedom. They didn’t want anyone in their business. That was how Davis handled his guys.

Fat and stupid, I asked myself, “How low can you sink, AD?”
Btw, I never bought into Jason Campbell having greatness, nor Carson Palmer, who will never again perform better than he did last season.
I trust my intuition since it’s never been incorrect.
June 4th, 2012 at 10:57 pm
If you compare the ‘Steeler Dynasty’ of the of the 70’s to the Raider run of that era it’s an interesting comparison.
Steelers won 4 SB’s in 6 yrs, but the Raiders really had a remarkable run that actually extended longer than that of Pittsburgh.
From the time Raiders played GB in Super Bowl 2 they won division title after title and were a great team…bested by Pitt in most playoff games but when it was all said and done you’re talking 1968-1984 with Raiders eventually winning 3 SB’s in a seven yr. span after doing everything BUT winning it those other yrs. and often getting robbed in the process.
-Rob Lytle fumble
-Immaculate “Deception”
1968-1984? Incredible run.
June 4th, 2012 at 10:58 pm
By the way, about that 1985-86 team, I hated Wilson, probably the 1st guy who I ever “hated” in the sports context, I used to think Rusty Hilger was the next great Raider QB too.

Yeah, the past is gone but can you imagine what the 80’s and 90’s would have been like if Al Davis had gotten his way and traded for the right to John Elway?.
Here’s a great article about that, AD had the deal down but Rozelle killed it!.
“Sunday, October 29, 2006
BY PAUL NEEDELL
Star-Ledger Staff
John Elway a Raider?
According to two people with knowledge of a potential pre-draft trade, the Colts had reached a deal to send the No. 1 pick of the 1983 draft to the Raiders — only to have the deal blocked by NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle.
“We almost had Elway, but Pete Rozelle voided the trade,” former Raiders personnel man Ron Wolf told The Star-Ledger last week. “We had the trade set up with Baltimore, but Pete wouldn’t let it happen.”
Rozelle and Raiders owner Davis spent many years in the 1980s in courtrooms over the Raiders’ move from Oakland to Los Angeles, among other issues. Simply put, the two didn’t like each other.
Ernie Accorsi, then the GM of the Colts, now the Giants’ GM, confirmed a deal was in place with the Raiders that would have netted Baltimore an unprecedented three No. 1 picks and two No. 2s. One of the No. 1s, Accorsi said, would have been the sixth overall, which the Raiders had arranged to acquire from the Bears.
“Yeah, it’s never been written, but I was going to make the deal only if it included getting back a top 10 pick,” Accorsi said. “I wanted to make sure we still got (Hall of Fame quarterback) Dan Marino. I wasn’t going to trade Elway for anything less than the best package ever.”
Wolf said he didn’t know the details of the almost-trade, but said he was was told by someone in the Colts’ organization that “it was much better” than what Baltimore later received from the Broncos for Elway after the draft. That deal included back-up QB Mark Hermann, tackle Chris Hinton and a first-round draft pick.
The deal apparently had been made by Davis and late Colts owner Robert Irsay.
So what happened?
“Irsay capitulated with the commissioner,” Wolf said.
Even late Bears general manager Jim Finks was baffled. Accorsi said he called him and said, “Are we getting (played) here? Because somebody’s killed the deal, and it’s not me.”
All parties thought a trade was set for the glamour-boy quarterback to land with the Raiders and Davis.
Irsay was worried that Elway would use his minor-league contract with the Yankees as leverage to never play for the Colts. While Accorsi tried to hold firm and call Elway’s bluff, teams often went over the GM’s head and called Irsay with offers.
So, before the draft, when someone from the Raiders called Accorsi and said, “Mr. Davis wants to know what it would take to get the rights to Elway,” the response was, “You don’t have the arsenal.”
Accorsi wanted the three No. 1s and a No. 2 — with a top 10 choice. The Raiders had the 26th choice in Round 1, but were prepared to send Chicago several players to also acquire the sixth spot. Accorsi agreed to accept the Raiders’ No. 1 pick in 1984, too.
Everything was in place — except the final go-ahead from Rozelle. That never came.
“Davis had his suspicions that Pete killed it,” Accorsi said. “All I knew was I was going to get the best deal ever or I wasn’t trading him.”
True to his word, Accorsi didn’t trade Elway. Irsay did.”
June 4th, 2012 at 11:15 pm
In addition to Russells play, he lost me when he said that guys were “making plays” for Frye and not for him.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
He got me with that one too. Can anyone name ONE play anyone ever made for Charlie Frye here?? That guy was an embarrasment. If he hadn’t gotten hurt against Denver, JR doesn’t come in and pull the game out of the fire and Charlie Frye is 0-3 in three starts during his Raider career (if you can even call it a career).
June 4th, 2012 at 11:29 pm
In fairness, Russell did pull a couple games out of the hat.
He made a 4th down and 11 pass for a 1st to extend that drive and then the TD. Schilens?
I do remember the nice drive he orchestrated to beat KC at Arrowhead. He had an awful game (stat wise) but threw a few lazers to get close and then the flip to DMAC for the winner.
Nice comeback to beat Gruden in Tampa and poetic justice the Raiders ended Grudens career in Tampa by knocking ‘em out of playoff contention.
Of course no one remembers THAT game they all wanna talk about that meaningless SB…lol.

I remember that game quite well. The Tampa Bay linebacker hurt his hamstring and stayed in the game, so Bush ran wild.
If that linebacker had gone to the bench like he should have, Gruden would still be in Tampa.
June 4th, 2012 at 11:40 pm
Yeah. Like Bob Marley mentioned the “what if’s” can be fun to contemplate. “If” Elway became a Raider??? There’s no Denver SB’s, maybe Raiders win a few more and on and on it goes…
June 4th, 2012 at 11:43 pm
Hardline, Yeah the JC love was really a major stretch from Al.
I think our dearly departed ‘Dark Lord’ was more “hoping” JC would turn out to be ‘great’. I really doubt he even believed it himself.
June 4th, 2012 at 11:52 pm
DJ,
I don’t discount CP’s ability – leaps and bounds ahead of JC. I am just saying I think he reached his peak and when the game is on the line he’ll throw an INT.
Of course if our D can slow down anything it would benefit Palmer. It must be tough when absolutely everything depends on you.
June 4th, 2012 at 11:57 pm
Hardline,
Is there some kind of reverse intuition curse you can do? Lol.
I know what mean. Lets hope this offense Knapp is constructing allows us to get the best out of Palmer and play to his stengths…and limit mistakes.

I do remember the nice drive he orchestrated to beat KC at Arrowhead. He had an awful game (stat wise) but threw a few lazers to get close and then the flip to DMAC for the winner.
Nice comeback to beat Gruden in Tampa and poetic justice the Raiders ended Grudens career in Tampa by knocking ‘em out of playoff contention.
Of course no one remembers THAT game they all wanna talk about that meaningless SB…lol.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
And a lot of people don’t remember that besides his otherwordly passing skills, JR was was drafted #1 because he possesses the clutch gene. He was credited with eight 4th-qtr comebacks in college and had a monster game in the Sugar Bowl with what may have been being drafted #1 overall on the line. The guy was considered impervious to pressure. I remember that 3rd and 8 at the end of the Buffalo game in 2008. We were up by like two points with 3 mins or so to go and the crowd was going crazy. I just closed my eyes and prayed for him to not throw an interception and just throw the ball away. Then he steps up and throws that strike into the teeth of the defense and 84 yards later, JLH is in the endzone. The guy was at his best in the clutch. He should still be here.

DJ,
I remember one INT JC threw this past season to a middle linebacker. I can’t remember what team we were playing. It wasn’t too long before he went down with the collarbone. The Raiders had driven approximately to the 20 yardline of the opponent. The play seemed to scatter the coverage and the middle was wide open. There was the opponent MLB there all alone, no one within 15 yards of him, and Campbell threw a pass right to him, chest high, right on the money. It was as if JC thought he was a Raider receiver.
The commentators were shocked too – just silent for several seconds. They tried to cover for Campbell because it was such a horrific mistake, but in the end, were speechless, and cut to a commercial.
Poor dumb Campbell just stood there, his bottom lip unfurled past his knees. At that moment he knew he was a mere backup. That’s why he ran like hell to your town and signed…..as a backup.
June 5th, 2012 at 12:05 am
Debo,
You are joking, right ?
June 5th, 2012 at 12:10 am
DJ,
I am so sorry for you in Chicago having to put up with Jay Culter, whose true talent is folding over a hangnail injury. He’ll never do anything.
Maybe Chi-Town will get a taste of JC. If you team is good enough on both sides, JC may even “manage” you into the playoffs.
I’d vote for JC anytime over Cutler.
June 5th, 2012 at 12:29 am
RaiderDebo,
You are in dreamland:
“besides his otherwordly passing skills, JR was was drafted #1 because he possesses the clutch gene.”
You cite Raiders v. Bill, 09/21/08:
C/ATT YDS AVG TD INT
J. Russell 9/19 156 8.2 1 0
Russell made 9 of 19 passes with one TD that day, and hardly other worldly.
Johnny Lee Higgins caught one pass that game, of 84 yards, which you cite, and scored a TD.
However, Raiders lost the game 23 to 24, largely due to the non-stellar performance of Russell.
Of course Russell fumbled, which led to the go ahead score by the Bills.
You sure Russell should still be here ?

It isn’t unsettling at all. DMAC is excused from OTA’s because he is in Arkansas running his annual youth football camp this week. There are no rumors of another injury to DMAC, other than the one you just tried to start.

Good Morning Nation!!!
June 5th, 2012 at 5:59 am
They don’t have anything to offer as WR’s
***
RDT is correct about Reece & Ausberry.
why aren’t more teams around the league doing this?
I mean, the Raiders did it with John Madsen (BYU?) & Randal Williams (from the Cowboys) back in the day – both WR’s converted to TE. Looks like Reggie is doing the same with rookie UDFA Carrier. Andre Hardy didn’t pan out.
Why not take a WR who is a longshot to make the team, place him on the practice squad, tell him to bulk up, gain weight and work on his blocking technique and he’ll have a shot at the 53 man roster next year. How many scrub WR’s would turn that down?

Hey Rockstar.
Post # 71, Don’t forget Todd Christensen man.
“At BYU, Christensen was a four-year starter (1974–77) at running back.
Christensen began his NFL career as a second-round draft pick of Dallas in 1978, while playing fullback, he broke his foot in the final exhibition game that year and was cut.
He later signed with the New York Giants and then the Oakland Raiders, who converted him to a tight end.
After three seasons of unspectacular statistics Christensen broke out in 1982, catching 42 balls for 510 yards and 4 TD’s in the strike-shortened season, helping the Raiders to the best record in the NFL.
The next year, Christensen caught 92 passes for a career high 1,247 yards and 12 touchdowns and earned the first of his five trips to the Pro Bowl for his efforts, his total catches led the NFL, making him the second tight end to ever do this (Kellen Winslow was the other).
Christensen topped 1,000 yards again in 1984, catching 82 passes in the process.
He hit 80 receptions again the following year, missing 1,000 yards by just 13 yards. The 1986 NFL season was Christensen’s last big one statistically. He ended the year with a career-high, league-leading 95 receptions for 1,153 yards and 8 touchdowns. He also became the first tight end in history to catch 90 passes in two seasons.
In his career, Christensen caught 461 passes for 5,872 yards and 41 touchdowns. In eight postseason games, he caught 31 balls for 358 yards and only one touchdown.
He led the league in receptions twice, and his 349 receptions from 1983-86 were an NFL record.”
June 5th, 2012 at 6:10 am
* post 271 I meant.
June 5th, 2012 at 6:17 am
That was a great 4 year run from Todd Christensen from 83 to 86, he averaged 87 catches for 1098 yards and 8 TD’s per season, made the Pro Bowl every year and was a 2 time 1st team All-Pro.
June 5th, 2012 at 6:27 am
HARD 2 BELIEVE THAT WAS GOING ON 30 YEARS AGO.THE ‘85′ TEAM WAS VERY GOOD.LOST TO N.E. AT HOME IN 1ST ROUND OF PLAYOFFS, TURNOVERS KILLED EM.THE RAIDERS BEARS GAME THAT YEAR MAY HAVE BEEN THE MOST BRUTAL GAME I HAVE EVER WATCHED..
June 5th, 2012 at 6:44 am
I am glad Reese signed his tender, I wish we really knew if his hold out will be detremental to his chances to contribute. I hope Jer can shed a bit of insight on the live chat. Not holding my breath, waiting for the usual anwsers to the usual qurstions,
June 5th, 2012 at 6:46 am
But Todd Christensen isn’t the only succesul RB to TE conversion te Raiders tried.
When Christensen broke down Al Davis went after another former high pick at RB, 15th overall in 1985, Ethan Horton.
Horton wasn’t nearly as good as Christensen but he started for a a few years and made the Pro Bowl in 1991.
“Ethan Horton may be one of Al Davis’ best reclamation projects.
Horton was a first-round draft choice of the Kansas City Chiefs as a running back from North Carolina in 1985, but never made it.
Then he got the phone call that changed his life. It was Davis, with a great idea. Horton, who was a tall running back to begin with at 6-feet-4, would check into a weight room for a few months, load up on pasta and emerge a tight end. Davis told him to think it over.
Four years after being cut loose in Kansas City, a first-round bust if ever there was one, Ethan Horton is back, bigger than ever.
You wouldn’t recognize him. On the long return route from Missouri to the Los Angeles Raiders, Horton took quite a few road-side hits.
He also underwent a total physical transformation, the result of some fancy football surgery performed by Al Davis, the always-tinkering Raiders’ owner and noted Dr. Frankenstein.
That Davis called personally was enough to persuade Horton to give it one more chance.
Before the ‘89 season, he worked out with noted strength coach Marv Marinovich and added about 15 pounds. A 225-pound running back coming out of college, Horton bulked up to a solid 240.
Davis then handed Horton over to Terry Robiskie, who coaches the tight ends.
“I had nothing to do with it,” Robiskie said. “(Davis) just made up in his mind that the kid could play tight end. He looked me in the eye one day and said ‘He can play tight end. Let’s do it.’ “
June 5th, 2012 at 6:49 am

Bosh is really going to help a lot, even at 70%, in the pick and pop game, both offensively and defensively.
He is probably their best mid-range jump shooter, and also their best big at closing out on jump shots.
Of course, it may take him a game or two to get his legs under him.

there is not much difference between him and guys like Matt Leinart & Kyle Newhall-Caballero imo
the fact that he only won 9 games in 3 years, pocketed $32 million from us and 99% of Raider Nation hates his guts; means that he’ll never be a Raider again even if he slimmed down to a linebacker’s weight

Ex-Raider Routt singing K.C.’s praises
Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Stanford Routt was no fan of the Raiders locker room.
Not the guys in it, mind you. He had plenty of friends after seven years with the Raiders, both teammates and those who worked for the franchise.
He just wasn’t a fan of the locker room itself.
“I could touch the ceiling standing up,” Routt said, gazing into the airy expanse of the Kansas City Chiefs’ spacious locker room. “The facilities here are so much better.”
The veteran defensive back is quickly settling into life as a member of his longtime division rival. He loves the hot, humid weather that comes with summer in the Midwest. He’s a huge fan of the relative lack of traffic. He appreciates the slower pace of life.
“It’s been great,” he said after practice Monday. “This was exactly what I was looking for. I spent my whole career in Oakland, and it’s nice to get a fresh start.”
Routt isn’t alone in growing accustomed to the Chiefs.
About a dozen stalls down in the locker room is tight end Kevin Boss, who also spent last year with the Raiders, giving each of them a certain amount of familiarity.
Then there’s the fact that Routt has played against the Chiefs twice a year for his entire career. He came into the new organization with some friendships already established, and that’s allowed him to quickly become part of the culture in Kansas City.
“I think the camaraderie has been the biggest thing, which is important,” said linebacker Derrick Johnson, the Chiefs’ elder statesman on defense. “He’s been able to come in here and get up to speed, and really he’s just one of the guys.”
There were other free agent signings made by Kansas City that generated more attention this offseason. Peyton Hillis will be toting the ball for the Chiefs rather than the Browns, and Eric Winston will be blocking for him rather than the Texans’ Arian Foster.
But it was Routt who may turn out to be the most important.
The Chiefs were unable to keep Brandon Carr, who had emerged as one of the league’s top defensive backs, and he ultimately signed with Dallas. That created a massive void opposite of Brandon Flowers, who Kansas City successfully signed to a long-term deal last year.
When the frenzy of free agency hit, Routt was among the Chiefs’ priorities.
Much has been made of his propensity for penalties — he was flagged 17 times last year, nine of those coming during a three-week stretch. But there’s also the fact that he was playing for the fourth-worst defense in the league, one that allowed nearly 400 yards of offense per game, and was regularly matched up with the opposing team’s top playmaker.
The Raiders fared better against the pass than the run, largely due to Routt, who started 30 of the 32 games that he’s played over the past two seasons.
“Some of his talent is beginning to show up now the more comfortable he gets with the guys around him,” Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said. “His abilities begin to show.”
Things haven’t been entirely perfect since arriving in Kansas City.
Routt was covering wide receiver Jonathan Baldwin on a deep ball during one of the Chiefs’ organized team activities last week. Baldwin leaped into the end zone, twisted his body and made a one-handed snare that drew a chorus of “oohs” from just about everyone on the practice field.
Everyone except Routt, that is.
“That’s football. Sometimes you make a play, sometimes he makes one,” Baldwin said. “Like I said, it happens. I’d like to see that happen 20 more times in a row.”
The part about Baldwin making the catch.
Not the part about getting beat.

@Bcz
Routt sucked as a nickel corner too, if you recall. Everybody said that he’d get better running down the field, using the sideline as his safety blanket. He did, he swats down a lot of balls, because he has trackstar speed. Problem is, his instincts and overall skill level are average at best. Thats why he gets picked on in the redzone. Short quick passes will carve this dude up all day. It’s those passes of 20+ yards that he excels at, where he can use his size, speed and the sideline.
June 5th, 2012 at 9:34 am
DMAC is going to serve platters full of crow in this blog. This is the year he puts it all together.
June 5th, 2012 at 9:35 am
Routt would always amaze me, when he had great coverage on a guy, than out of nowhere he would completely overreact and panic and just yank a guy down by his shoulder pads.

RRS,
I saw plenty of good plays down short in redzone by Routt last year. Blanketing the short sideline routes and corner fades in the endzone. And I remember plenty of poor angles and bad interference calls on deep throws downfield. If I was to recall off the top of my head all the bad plays, the deep ones outweigh the short ones.
June 5th, 2012 at 9:39 am
Baldwin is going to be a very good WR for the Chefs
***
true, G123. this guy has talent
not the brightest kid though. punched Thomas Jones in the helmet last offseason and broke his wrist, didn’t he?
from PFT:
Chiefs first round wide receiver Jonathan Baldwin was mysteriously missing from Chiefs practice on Wednesday.
A radio report in Kansas City hinted there may be more to the story, but we passed on mentioning it until more information came out. Well, it’s out now. If Nick Wright of 610 radio in Kansas City is right, the story is a doozy.
Wright reports that Baldwin will likely miss the rest of the preseason after injuring his wrist during a locker room scuffle with teammate Thomas Jones. Baldwin’s work ethic has reportedly been an issue.
“He’s as advertised,” a source tells Wright. “Diva, spoiled, doesn’t wanna listen. Can run a Go and a Slant, and doesn’t wanna work.”
The Chiefs flew to Baltimore on Thursday in preparation for Friday’s preseason game. The team hasn’t said whether Baldwin was on the flight with them.
Baldwin was already struggling in Chiefs camp before this news came out. He looks unlikely to play much early in the year.

June 5th, 2012 at 9:53 am
My two chief concerns/points of interest in the upcoming OTA’s & rest of preseason.
1. Cornerback play – CB’s are basically a whole new crew with a brand new scheme of a college coach. Can they ramp up to the play demanded to stop Manning, Rivers, etc..?
2. Offensive line – Solid group, but razor thin. Can they find some cohesion on the right side of the line? On paper, it looks good. But it will be interesting to see how it plays out.
June 5th, 2012 at 9:54 am
Jared Veldheer, T, Oakland: The list is getting difficult here. I’m going with Veldheer as the second-best left tackle based on potential. It’s sky-high
Stefen Wisniewski, C, Oakland: I like this second-year guard-turned-center a lot. A future star.
Mike Brisiel, G, Oakland: Tough, gritty player who is perfect for the zone-blocking offense.
Cooper Carlisle, G, Oakland: He keeps hanging around. The end may be near, but he can zone-block.
Khalif Barnes, T, Oakland: He could lose his job to Joe Barksdale if he slips.

REECE BACK IN BLACK
06-04-12
Oaklands offense just got better today as FB Marcel Reece joined the team for todays OTAs.
Reece has been persona non grata at the Raider facility this off season. Many assume its because the multi-talented WR turned FB wants a new contract.
The former Huskie is signed through 2013 on his current contract making him an Exclusive Rights Free Agent this season, Reece really had no leverage to hold out for a better deal.
Though the Raiders can, will and may already have restructured contracts to free up money, that cash will go toward signing draft picks and any free agents that turn their heads and likely not toward many long term contracts this off season.
Franchise tagged SS Tyvon Branch is an exception. If they can get a long term done with him, that will free up extra moolah as well.
Some would have you believe Oaklands shortage of money this off season was thanks to former Al Davis’ “out of whack” contracts before his death, but remember, Davis ran the Raiders and made cap ever single time for 50 years.
The reason the Raiders are cash strapped this off season is because the new powers that be are up dating and installing a whole new system on the field and in the front office.
They could’ve come in and coasted one more season under the Davis banner but rightly so new Owner Mark Davis and GM Reggie McKenzie decided to bite the bullet and make the change sooner rather than later.
That means less money for long term deals this off season.
Reece and his people knew this, so the real reason for the 6-3, 240 lb match up nightmares “hold out” may simply have been not wanting to attend “voluntary” work outs.
It may also have been a statement, meaning Reece expects to work a new deal sooner rather than later.
He’ll have 1 yr left on his contract next off season and if he has production like he did last year he’ll have much more leverage for a bigger, long term deal as a valuable, versatile WR/FB who can line up at either spot or split out of the back field confusing defenses and creating instant mismatches.
Hybrids are nothing new to Oakland or the League, in fact,back in the day many players played multiple postions even playing “iron man” on both sides of the ball but with a renewed hybrid emphasis on a spectrum wide scale the Raiders Marcel Reece is their crown jewel.
For $540,000 this season, that gem is a bargain.
Unfortunately there are players in this situation who might be tempted to fake an injury and miss time but we’re pretty sure Reece isn’t one of them.
He knows big production this year will mean big offers next off season.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:04 am
We improved our run defense by over 25 yards a game from the season before Rolando got here, to last year.
Glass half-full!!!

Not sure who’s fault it was, but remember it was those slants over the middle that burned us in the redzone more than once.

Hanie’s first pick was a gift right to Routt in his own territory, than that throwback INT was about as bad as it gets.
That thing looked like a Coco Crisp throw, or a Lefty flop wedge. About 50 feet in the air, and about 60 feet in distance.

Jogging and giving up are things the new Reg ime will not put up with I would bet. That being said we at the very least need a back-up plan because there will most likely be some sort of repercussions somewhere down the line. Time to shine or get the fvck out of Oak-town

If McClain were some other number and some other name on the jersey, would he be a “lock” to make the roster based on his play? Imagine if he were a 7th rounder? He’d already be kicked to the curb.

@G123
McClain is on scholarship, plain & simple
we can’t afford to cut him or replace him with a starting calibur FA [even if there was one]. We don’t have a capable backup.
Reggie & Dennis will hope for the best in YR#3 and let the legal process play it’s course. If he misses any games due to jail time or league suspension, I don’t think our “high character” leaders would be all that thrilled, but what options have they got?
Rolando World Peace was the last Top 10 draft pick of the Al Davis era. This was before the rookie cap. #55 has his bosses by the balls

June 5th, 2012 at 11:41 am
Darrius Heyward-Bey, WR, Raiders: It’s arguable that he crossed the threshold last season when he caught a career-best (by far) 64 passes for 975 yards. The guy has been dogged by being overdrafted (seventh overall) in 2009, but finally played like he wants to be a No. 1 wideout. An offseason DUI arrest he said he’ll plead not guilty to could motivate him even more.
Heyward-Bey came on strong at the end of last season after taking a midseason dip following the season-ending injury to quarterback Jason Campbell and the arrival of Carson Palmer. That late-season momentum and an offseason to build chemistry with Palmer could have its benefits. Then again, if his production dips or he stops improving, he’ll be unable to shake the overdrafted tag.

The one big plus for DHB is he plays with a boulder size chip on his shoulder, trying to prove all the doubters wrong (myself included). Works his tail off and runs good route tree, blocks excellent, but just can’t get past the body catching.
I don’t think he’ll be given as much latitude within this regime, but a scrappy player like him will always have a roster spot. I still see DHB fading out of the WR picture as Ford and Criner come on.

Demaryius Thomas
My God this dude is amazing. Over the shoulder catches no problem…Manning trusts him. Went downfield to him in double coverage, no worries. Thomas could be top 10 special because of his work in vertical windows, size, strength, and speed. Dude skies for catches, plucks the ball out of the air, strong hands, and #### you ‘my ball’ mentality, really taken it to another level so far this offseason.

June 5th, 2012 at 12:07 pm
Raiders almost showed too much patience in drafting Moore
.Raiders scout Jon Kingdon was on Sirius XM NFL Radio last weekend and he credited former Oakland safety and current scout Calvin Branch with uncovering fifth-round steal Denarius Moore. Branch discovered the receivers at the Texas vs. Nation college all-stars game, but apparently couldn’t convince the Raiders to take Moore in the third or fourth round.
Kingdon thought Moore would picked in the third round, but the Raiders were dead set on not drafting a receiver that early. So, they took cornerback DeMarcus Van Dyke and tackle Joseph Barksdale in the third round, and two more players (cornerback Chimdi Chekwa and running back Taiwan Jones) in the fourth round before realizing that Moore was still on the draft board.
Kingdon said the Raiders jumped on Moore at that point and that coach Hue Jackson received three or four calls from other head coaches saying that the Raiders had just gotten their guy.
Sounds to me like the Raiders got a little lucky. And that maybe Branch should have more clout from here on out — Oakland should just go ahead and take his guy in the fourth round next time.
Also in the interview, Kingdon said the Raiders are looking for “athletic linemen” for their new zone-blocking scheme and that he thinks Bruce Campbell shouldn’t have been moved from tackle to guard. He thinks the Campbell trade to Carolina is good for both teams, and that the Raiders “really liked” former Panthers running back Mike Goodson a lot coming out of college.

June 5th, 2012 at 12:09 pm
Criner is going to be a break out WR. Big dude, great hands, works hard and gets open. As for the speed issue, well take a look at this article if you want to debate speed in the NFL.
******************
Jerry Rice = 4.71 40 at the combine. All you need to know about the importance of a 40 time.
As far as Dmo17 being the best WR in the west? Well I want to see him do more than catch deep balls this year. Make the tough catches to move the chains, be a red zone threat things like that. I love what the kid showed as rookie, but to be the best he has to do those kinds of things.

DMo17 is far and away our best wideout. But he still needs to develop into an everyweek contributor. His route tree is limited and if he can get to DHB’s level of understanding of the offense, he’ll explode this year.
June 5th, 2012 at 12:13 pm
Bcz,
Rice was a great WR regardless of his 40 time, by you can’t ignore speed and size.
Look at Andre Johnson and Calvin Johnoson, may not have hands like Larry, but they are just as good (if not better) due to their speed.
June 5th, 2012 at 12:13 pm
No, I do not believe that Seymour and S&B are the same person! He and Mista was going at it for a while now! Not sure if it’s the same with Mista and S&B…
June 5th, 2012 at 12:13 pm

D. Thomas is probably the best wideout in the west, if and only if Manning stays healthy.

Dmo and Criner easily be the next Boldin/Fitz combo. Dmo as the deep threat and Criner as the posession guy. Could be deadly in the years to come.

Watching the Sea of Hands game last night was awesome. This was a different version than the one you’ve all seen on Nfl Films…interviews, multiple angles etc.
They even show the part where a fan ran into the endzone right after “the catch” and just ran up tp Nick Buonacitti and punched him in the stomach…then Manny Fernandez pops the guy in the head with a forearm…and the fan is still standing trying to fight back and Fernandez is still going at him…then other Dolphins join the fray…
Those Dolphins are very bitter about that game to this day. It ended their “dynasty”.
Shula said he “still has nightmares”.

Whoa whoa there. That’s a bit premature to have those kinds of expectations of a Raider wideout. Both those guys were triple digit catchers in Boldin’s prime. What have our guys done? Both Moore & Criner have tremendous promise, but have a boatload to learn.

Dude Andre and Calvin both have ridiculous size and incredible hands, the speed is like a bonus round.
Functional quickness (in and out of breaks) is far more important than speed.
DHB with all his size and speed worked his ass off to become an AVERAGE receiver. Ill take the guy with the quickness and the hands 100 times out of 100 over the track stars.

June 5th, 2012 at 12:38 pm
The debate continues to rage in Raider Nation, as well as amongst the mainstream media, as to whether the Oakland Raiders have the personnel to successively make the transition to a 3-4 defensive alignment. Everybody is in consensus that head coach, Dennis Allen, would prefer this switch. Or would he?
Personnel wise, dealing strictly with the defensive linemen the team currently has on the roster, it does not appear that a 3-4 base is going to be the primary alignment. Or is it?
Coach Allen has been vague in answering whether the defense will be a base 3-4 or if he’ll stay with the 4-3. He has however said repeatedly to expect multiple fronts. What does that mean for the guys that made the team playing in a 4-3 last season, as well as the new additions on the line from free agency and the draft?
Looking at the defensive linemen, it is obvious the team has a plethora of talented defensive ends and tackles on the current roster that can easily fill most of the roles for a 4-3 or a 3-4 defense. The question mark for a 3-4 however is at the nose tackle position.
Travis Ivey is the only player that is on the team that fills this position. At 6’ 4” and 341 pounds the guy has the size to play, but his experience at the pro-level, (or lack thereof) is the big question mark. Ivey was with the practice squad last season, after short-lived stints with the Miami Dolphins and Cleveland Browns in 2010. It remains to be seen if he can truly handle the responsibility of playing the position productively for an entire season.
There has been speculation that Tommy Kelly could slide over and play the nose for a 3-4, but the big guy lacks some of the beef needed to plug up the middle in this type of scheme.
Rookie Dominique Hamilton, out of Mizzou is intriguing, but he lacks some of the strength required for the nose tackle position and is unproven at the pro-level. He is better as a run-stopper and could be coached up to one day play the nose tackle position in a 3-4.
The Raiders have other defensive tackles like veterans, Desmond Bryant and the Captain, Richard Seymour, along with rookie, Christo Bilukidi and second-year player Jamie Cumbie, but these guys are all better suited for the “five-technique” end position of the 3-4, rather than playing nose tackle.
Looking at the defensive ends on the team, Lamarr Houston and Matt Shaughnessy are the clear cut favorites to start in 2012. Others making an impact could include Dave Tollefson, acquired from the New York Giants via free-agency, and rookie Jack Crawford out of Penn State.
All of these guys are built for the 4-3 as they can handle playing the defensive end, but none of them possesses the skill-set to transition into an outside linebacker if asked to play in a 3-4. With the tackles that can also play defensive end that the Raiders have on the team, it would make these guys expendable if the team primarily ran a 3-4 scheme.
So looking at the personnel on the defensive line that the team currently has on its roster, is it conceivable to see them running a 3-4 defense this season?
Normally, the answer would be a resounding no, but head coach, Dennis Allen, and defensive coordinator, Jason Tarver, are not exactly ruling it out.
When asked recently about his defensive vision of the ball club for 2012, Tarver responded by saying: “One of our phrases is multiplicity thru simplicity. It will be multiple looks that will allow our players to do what they do best.”
In other words, if the situation calls for a 3-4 scheme then the best players that fit the 3-4 scheme will take the field and vice versa for the 4-3.
The new look Raiders’ defensive line will be built of guys with varying abilities that either transition well between schemes or instead, are those who can only play well in a certain scheme that will look to take the field as the need calls for them.
As far as calling them a 3-4 or 4-3 defense, the Raiders may very well be both and then some. If a 5-2 defense is needed, expect to see it. If a 4-6 is what Tarver thinks will work, expect to see it. All different alignments and scenarios look to be what you can expect to see from the Raiders this upcoming season.
On the defensive line, this adds up to exactly what you are seeing from the team. There are no clear cut positions being set in stone and no-one besides maybe Seymour, can really say they are 100 pecent certain of the role they will fill on the defensive front.
With the addition of defensive line coach Terrell Williams, from Texas A&M, we can see the vision taking shape even further.
Williams was an all-star nose guard for the East Carolina Pirates, apparently being a marauder runs in his blood, and has coached in every capacity and position as far as the defensive line is concerned. The guy is big on stopping the run and should make a huge impact this season as he helps the Raiders address the new multi-look scheme they are implementing.
One thing is for certain as the team moves forward learning the new schemes. The defensive line should be much improved compared to last season. They should develop to be a formidable answer to the run and will wreak havoc on opposing quarterbacks. There should be a big step up for the 29th ranked defense from a season ago.
Whether running a 3-4 or a 4-3, look for the line to be changing consistently to meet the game plan devised by coach Tarver. Be sure to keep an eye out for the young guys to begin to become more assertive and dominant when given their chance to play. This could also be a breakout season for young veterans like, Lamarr Houston and Matt Shaughnessy, as they strive to compete and keep their jobs on the ends of the line.
The wile veterans in the interior could very well be looking at pro-bowl caliber performances. Seymour, Bryant and Kelly are all ready to dominant opposing offenses. This multi-look scheme will give them the opportunity to stay fresh and be more productive as the constant rotation will not require them to exhaust themselves early on with continuous play.
When the occasion calls for a 3-4, look for Ivey to finally mature into the nose tackle position and for the linebackers to be able to get clean because of his improved play. Also, look for the rookie, Hamilton, to get plenty of opportunities to shine in his role as a run-stopper as he steps in to support Kelly and Ivey at the nose in situational 3-4 looks.
So instead of worrying if the Raiders will change their base look to meet the sportswriters “en vogue” trend for defenses this season, look closely at what the game scenario is calling for the defense to do and expect them to answer it regardless of which scheme is called upon.
The important thing to keep in mind is not in whether it is a 3-4 or a 4-3 scheme the team is running, but whether or not the team is producing on defense. Getting three-and-outs and producing turnovers is what the game is really all about and this multi-scheme idea of coach Allen’s is indeed the “X-factor” that could help the team break out of its playoff slump.
It all starts up front for the defense and mixing things up will make it harder for opposing coaches to know what to expect. Confusion leads to mistakes and mistakes lead to big plays for the Silver and Black. It is this formula the Raiders will seek to exploit this season. Look for the defense to return to Oakland and for the defensive line to lead the way.
Necessity is the mother of innovation and it is in the necessity to improve the defense that Coach Allen has introduced with his scheme of multi-front looks for his defense. The bottom line is: It is this new innovative defensive scheming that will have the Black Hole and all Raider fans around the nation screaming “RRRRAAAAIIIIDDDEEERRRSSSSSS!”
While opponents and the media is screaming: “Where did these guys come from?!”

I asked Seymour before if he was S&B666, he responded to my post, but never answered my question.
IMO Seymour = S&B666
++++++++++++++++
I know Mista believes that 666 is Oakglenn/seymour, but I have been e-mailing with 666 for a loooooong time, and I had my run-ins with Oakglenn. I have had my differences with 666 over politics too, but they are not the same people.

When’s the last time Beecham made a football comment, 666?
Weiner talk all fking day and nite, and he aint a troll? C’mon man.
June 5th, 2012 at 2:01 pm
“No, I guess he is a troll, but at least he talks football, and not about his wiener all day”
That’s funny.
I think you fail to see the humor in The Beeech Dawgs post as I do.
Lets be real this blog is pure entertainment and that’s all it is.
Most of us need a break from our work day and this is how we get it.
Yes we all desire to get some Raiders news or inside information that we cannot get anywhere else.
But at the end of the day its entertainment.

He does not talk about the Raiders often but he does partake in the basketball discussions here as well as the LA Kings making Hockey history.
I think he is funny and that makes the blog more interesting. At least he is not spinning some political agenda!

“In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.”

I am a troll.
I think people think of trolls in here as other commentators who take people’s names and post BS under them, or who have multiple handles like MaddenRaider.
Not sure what the name for those people are.

Just wondering if you remember?
June 5th, 2012 at 2:15 pm
I am guilty of being in many political arguments here on this blog.
So I cannot put judgement on others for doing so.
There are times when it gets caustic and the debate should end but usually name calling ensues and then its no fun for everyone here.
June 5th, 2012 at 2:17 pm
Man, I’ve never seen KrappyRat cry and whine so much, sad old dude
Poor old troll just can’t stand to see his precious blog be used for good, instead of his politics, racism, etc.

yards per game is another meaningless stat. what about points per game. that’s where the rubber meets the road.

Yeah GB gave up most passing yds. in NFL HISTORY last season and still went 15-1. Caught up to em in the playoffs though.
In fairness, that ridiculous offensive juggernaut led by Rodgers had alot to do with the 15-1.
——————
Exactly the point of a Raider Nation Station article. Al Davis asymetrical analytical defense where yds between the 20s mean little to nothing nor do “D rankings”.
Over rated.
GB, was worst ranked, NE 2nd worst and Super bowl winners NYG had 27th ranked D.
Rest of the League needed banks of computers to catch up to what Davis was doing all along.

Originally I was at 6.25% because I only had 5% down. Then a couple of years ago we did a quick re-fi down to 5.75%. Now it is 3.5%…..that is crazy low.
My student loan interest rate is 1.75% thanks to a consolidation I did before Congress started messing with student loans back in 2004 or 2005, and thanks to a .25% interest rate drop for 36 consecutive payments and another .25% for the direct withdrawal option.

but its the same sh!t every offseason, its like a dogpound and guys here gets at eachothers throats, come september everybodys pals again..
I know this, because for several years i’ve been attacked on several fronts during offseaon
so fight it, or ignore it, it goes away when preseason starts.

When the Saints come to the Black Hole, do we see Brees carry on about his business as usual, or do we see the team struggle without the likes of Payton and Williams as coaches? Any thoughts on if the Saints skip a beat..

They have kind of been the golden boy of sorts of late, but no longer.
Don’t see them doing anything more than what they did last year, maybe win a home playoff game in the first round than lost the following week.

Saints were allowed to get away with tons because Bree’s was the golden boy, Vilma was finance major and wall street intern, and the whole Katrina thing gave them untold goodwill from everywhere. Refs are no different, they are human, and got sucked in a tad I believe.
Not happending anymore. It says here to expect at least a 15-25% increase in Saints penalties this season.

@633 You make some valid points JFB, everyone did stand behind the whole city after Katrina. I saw them play the Lions after that mess in the Alamodome, but I think Brooks was QB then. I do think they got breaks, but I think Brees is a beast and they need to pay that man.

————————————————–
Thank you for bringing that up. Goethel is held in high regard b/c of some things people have said about him in previous OTAs and Training Camps. Not much, if any, in the way of concrete evidence he could be a baller. Its easy to romanticize players you hear about being good, but that is taking a serious leap of faith in a guy that has had little time on the field, and none that any of us have seen. Has he even played in a preseason game? Also, watching Youtube highlights does not constitute as serious critiquing of players.

Trolls don’t have friends. On the internet, because they interact with human beings, they can convince themselves that they are important, the centre of the universe – that, to them, is better than any friendship. Don’t forget, the troll thinks he is always right, and therefore better than other folk. In real life, exactly the opposite applies. the troll has no friends and virtually no interaction with other people.

It’s a good thing that Jason Tarver mastered (as in degree) biochemistry and molecular biology. Because he is taking on much uglier, more complicated material now.
How are the Raiders going to stop the run?
And when he’s done with that decade-old problem, Oakland’s bright-eyed new defensive coordinator can tackle this brainteaser:
How are the Raiders going to stop the pass?
Oakland, which won eight games last season on the strength of its offense, became one of four teams to allow at least 30 TD passes and 5.0 yards per carry in a season. (Not to mention the entire squad’s NFL-record 163 penalties for 1,358 yards.) The Raiders had a lot of high-priced players, but few, if any, playmakers on defense.
And then, in the offseason, Oakland cut leading pass-rusher Kamerion Wimbley for salary-cap reasons and also let go of its two starting cornerbacks, Stanford Routt and Chris Johnson.
The Raiders replaced them with several veterans signed to one-year contracts and rookies drafted after the second round, as they didn’t have any early picks.
All of which explains why Tarver can’t go into a lot of detail when asked what the Raiders’ defense is going to look like. He doesn’t know yet.
Discovery mode
The team was back on the field for organized workouts Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and Tarver and new head coach Dennis Allen are still in discovery mode.
“Put all these guys out here and see who can play and who can learn and who can communicate and who can fit with your group,” Tarver said.
Allen and general manager Reggie McKenzie found Tarver right down the road, as he was a first-year co-defensive coordinator at Stanford. Tarver, 37, had spent the previous decade as a 49ers assistant coach, including six seasons coaching the outside linebackers.
Never mind that the Raiders turned to Tarver after striking out with five other defensive-coordinator candidates. They got the right man, new Raiders and former 49ers cornerback Shawntae Spencer said.
“He is a rising star,” Spencer said. “Been underused for so long. He just has so much intelligence when it comes to the X’s and O’s. He is one of the brightest minds out there.”
Tarver and Allen, a defensive coordinator with the Broncos last season, aren’t letting too much out of the bag about the defense yet. It will have many different looks, with man-to-man, zone and zone-pressure packages all featuring a lot of blitzes.
Although in the last couple of years, the Raiders relied on Wimbley or their Richard Seymour-led defensive line to make a play, Tarver and Allen want to take advantage of the range, versatility and blitzing skills of safeties Tyvon Branch and Michael Huff.
“We’re going to be multiple,” Tarver said. “One of our phrases is ‘multiplicity through simplicity,’ so we’re going to have defenses where everyone is going to have a turn to cover and rush and those type things.”
Favorable reviews
The players, new and old, like what they have learned so far about the defensive looks.
“I love the scheme,” said cornerback Ron Bartell, one of the players who was given a one-year, show-me contract. “It puts a lot of different people in positions to make plays. Some schemes are predicated upon D-line, some are on linebackers, some are on secondary play.”
Right now, nearly two months from training camp, is a time for teaching. Good thing that Tarver is a teacher.
A Foothill High (Pleasanton) alum, Tarver received a scholarship to play at Santa Clara, but the school dropped football a few months later. He played defensive back in 1994 and 1995 at West Valley College in Saratoga.
He received his bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Santa Clara in 1997. He also earned his master’s degree in biochemistry and molecular biology from UCLA and the departmental prize for distinguished teaching in 1998 and 2000. He caught the “coaching football bug” shortly thereafter.
One can picture Tarver writing on a chalkboard his list of rules that will help his defensive players pass their tests against opposing teams.
“The test for players is when the offense presents you a look, a quiz question, which is a formation, then you gotta use your rules for that formation,” Tarver said. “And then things move, and then you’ve got to apply your rules as it’s going.
“It’s applying it throughout the play. … What happens most of the time is somebody found a way to get somebody messed up out of a rule or something, or ’shoot, I just didn’t see that guy.’ My rule tells me, look at him.
“If you know your rules, if you execute your rules, there’s very little that can hurt you. And then all 11 guys gotta do the rules at the same time. That’s why you practice.”
Reece back: Raiders fullback Marcel Reece signed his exclusive-rights tender with the team and was back on the field Monday for organized team activities. Reece, 27 in a couple of weeks, wanted a long-term contract but instead will earn $540,000 next season and be a restricted free agent next year.
Deficient defense
The Raiders ranked near the bottom of the NFL in points, total yards, passing yards and rushing yards allowed per game last season:
Points: 27.1 (29th in NFL)
Total yards: 387.6 (29)
Passing yards: 251.4 (27)
Rushing yards: 136.1 (27)
Note: Oakland had franchise worsts in touchdown passes allowed (31), yards per carry (5.1), yards passing (4,262) and total yards (6,201), and gave up the third-most points (433) in team history.

Do you guys think McFadden can stay healthy for a full season, and should the coaching staff decrease his touches based on his injury history?
June 5th, 2012 at 9:40 pm
I hate the celtics and I strongly dislike the heat and I don’t care for the spurs. So, I hope the Celtics and Miami goes 7 games and that game 7 goes into 8 overtimes, and both teams lose three starters to injury in that game, and then the winner loses to the thunder, but if they play the spurs, I hope the spurs beat either of them, but that they do so in a game 7 that has a play botched by an official that is so bad there will forever be an a stain on the spurs win!

Raider O,
I strongly believe that our coaching staff needs to limit his touches and preserve him until the playoffs and Super Bowl.
Line him up in the slot and let him run over linebackers and DB’s/safeties. Obviously this comes into fruition if our back-ups can be productive as well.
Go Raiders!

My opinion no. I’ve heard it said the more you try to prevent an injury the more likely it is to occur.
Just ride him till he breaks.
If he’s gonna break down i’d rather he do it soon and get it over with and not wait till the playoffs like Bo Jackson.
That’s just my humble opinion.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:02 pm
MiamiRaider78,
I predicted 250 carries 1250 yards, and 50 catches for 500 yards. Avg 19-20 touches/ game. If he stays healthy, I can see him having more carries around 300.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:03 pm
Miami, what u say makes sense but when DMAC went down it was just a fluke thing anyway. It was just an average tackle on an average play. The defender just rolled on his foot. That can happen on any play, so i guess limiting him brings down the liklihood of him getting injured..statistically.

You’re asking for alot…Sounds like the elongated scenarios I concoct that will make me happy during NFL playoffs.
“Pitt has to lose, but NE can’t win, but what about Denver? They have to ose two, and I hate Dallas, but what about Green Bay?”
It gets to the point if it’s not Raiders I have trouble finding a team I can be ok with winning the SB.
I wish they’d just cancel the game.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:09 pm
That whole time he was injured, was misery for me. It was a sprained ankle, correct? I thought he was going to come back but he never did, so it made me hope for nothing. Plus he was on my F.F team. :/
Maybe he needs to see a foot doctor and brainstorm ideas to get the perfect cleats for him? I agree Dj!

Yeah O. I agree. We can’t ignore his history either…that would be foolish and by spreading out the carries it ensures that IF Dmac goes down we have a guy who is already making yds. for us. Like Bush did.

Miami,
Torture waiting for him to come back and everybody’s getting ticked off at him thinking he’s being a wuss.
“Take a shot and get your butt out there” was the prevailing attitude here.
Some were ticked at Hue for saying he’d be ready and then NOT being ready.
The whole thing stunk cuz we never knew what the real deal was.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:17 pm
Initially, wasn’t it a sprained ankle? I forgot there, you professional blogger!
June 5th, 2012 at 10:17 pm
DJ,
That’s one of my concerns with this team. Do we have a capable backup RB to replace Bush’s production?
Other concerns are CBs (lack of TOs), lack of speed and explosiveness at the DE position, STs (PR & punt coverage), and RT.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:20 pm
Raider O.
Do you guys think McFadden can stay healthy for a full season, and should the coaching staff decrease his touches based on his injury history?.
——————————————————
Well, his knees are fine which is always good, turf toe and lisfranc are injuries you can get over and possibly prevent now that we know his feet are fragile.
Fred Taylor, missed a ton of games during his first 4 season and ended up with 11,000 plus rushinh yards.
Robert Smith emerged from 4 injury-plagued seasons and turned into a Pro Bowl caliber back the following 4 seasons.
- Bottom line, no reason to limit McFadden’s work, Coaches should use him as any other # 1 RB in the league, you always want to try to keep them fresh but winning games is the prority here and he should play as much as needed.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:20 pm
June 5th, 2012 at 10:27 pm
Miami, as Bob points out it was a lisfranc injury, which is more serious than just a sprain, but we were being told the whole time it wasn’t that.
Good thing it was “lis franc’ and not “Anne Franc”..much worse.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:29 pm
O. Man, I don’t know if we do either. Can Reece be that guy?
June 5th, 2012 at 10:36 pm
Why did it take so long to diagnose as “Lisfranc?”
The incidence of Lisfranc joint fracture–dislocations is one case per 55,000 persons each year. These injuries account for less than 1 percent of all fractures. As many as 20 percent of Lisfranc joint injuries are missed on initial X-rays. In McFadden’s case they took a while to definitively come out and admit to it being a “Lisfranc” injury. This would indicate they had to rule out, turf toe, fractures, tendonitis, and basically any other foot injury before they came to the Lisfranc conclusion. Regardless of whether the medical staff knew initially the extent of the injury, or they diagnosed it later only indicates a better recovery for Darren McFadden. If it was SEVERE, there would have been no question on X-ray, and McFadden would have required surgery.
____________________
Thanks Dj. I know it was much more severe than an ankle sprain but I went with what the initial injury was.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:45 pm
Miami, who could blame you? That’s what we were all being told.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:46 pm
DJ,
I think we should be more pass oriented on offense (60/40) to take advantage of our depth at the WR position, Reece (matchup nightmare), and McFadden who can catch well. That will also minimize the need for another productive RB.
June 5th, 2012 at 10:51 pm
O,
I’m with ya. I envision quick roll outs and quick strikes complimented by DMAC (and maybe Reece and Goodson) runs.
Knapp also said he likes the “deep strike”.

June 6th, 2012 at 5:47 am
That KG dunk at the end of the 3rd quarter was on Lebron.
That was there small lineup where he plays center. He lets KG run right past him, and acts like he is checking Pietrus.
Only problem? Pietrus hadn’t even got to half court yet.
Than Lebron throughs up his hands in disgust, like James Jones and Mike Miller were supposed to be the guy guarding KG.
The guy has the worst body-language of any elite player I may have ever seen.

Now the pressure is on the Heat to win where they have lost 15 outta 16 times…but…
What the heck is up with playing Bosh only 14 minutes…during that time, 9 points, 7 boards…I mean, excuse me???
June 6th, 2012 at 5:57 am
Raider O Says:
That’s one of my concerns with this team. Do we have a capable backup RB to replace Bush’s production?.
—————————————————–
Don’t forget the ZBS blocking scheme churns out 1,000 yard rushers out of nowhere, Arian Foster, the latest example, was an undrafted Free Agent.
I’m confident DMAC plays 13-14 games for us and hopefully is available for the stretch run.
That being said, if DMAC goes down, Mike Goodson, Taiwan Jones or Lonyae Miller might be the next 1,000 yard rusher to come “out of nowhere” in the ZBS.
Goodson has produced when given time, he would be our best bet to break out and not much of a surprise since he’s a talented guy.
Taiwan Jones, seems be more of a breakaway threat who sees a few touches during games looking to break out a long one but might never be a suitable replacement for DMAC so I don’t see him filling his shoes.
Lonyae Miller might turn out to be that obscure, “out of nowhere” runner who explodes in the ZBS, big back with good speed, might not be very elusive but you don’t have to be on this system.
Miller coud not make it in Dallas, but they had Felix Jones, Marion Barber, DeMarco Murray and Tashard Choice during his time there, it was hard to make the team, Jones and Murray are very good when healthy, Barber and Choice were vets familiar with the system, Miller was the odd man out.
June 6th, 2012 at 6:00 am
@918 I think Goodson does have the ability to be that guy, but I hope we use Reece inside more in the ZBS. Imagine a guy his size running behind the big boys on the o-line.
June 6th, 2012 at 6:03 am
If you guys were going to fly to Oakland from Tx for a home game, which game would it be this year? I’m trying to plan either the Pitt or Saints game..anyone think another match-up will be better? Denver maybe..
June 6th, 2012 at 6:03 am
what the heck was the Heat coach thinking, having all 3 bigs inactive [Anthony, Pittman & Turiaf] ??
starters Haslem & Battier combine for 8 points in over 65 minutes ??
we finally shut down Rondo & Dooling, then get smoked by KG!

someone posted earlier that the Raiders Bye week is coming after 4 weeks. I have to say no one should have a bye before mid season.
June 6th, 2012 at 6:11 am
Bosh seemed like he played well but his +/- was -13, which is a disaster for only 14 minutes.
I guess they were right about that “not 1…..not 2…..not 3….not 4″.
Yup guys, you nailed it. It will be zero!!
June 6th, 2012 at 6:12 am
@924 Agreed HB, but after those first 4 tough match-ups, maybe it will be a good thing this year.

June 6th, 2012 at 6:14 am
I only saw the last 3 minutes of the game last night and it seemed like Boston wanted it more…the hustle to the ball and everything. When Wade blocked KG (I believe) and the ball shot out and Rondo slapped it to pietrus for 3, I think that was the turning point!
June 6th, 2012 at 6:15 am
Last time we went to the Super Bowl, we had a week 4 or 5 bye, so I think this is ideal, IMO.
June 6th, 2012 at 6:16 am
and the ball shot out and Rondo slapped it to pietrus for 3,
**********************
He slapped it away from Lebron, who has half a foot and 50 pounds on him.
June 6th, 2012 at 6:17 am
Lebron needs Pat Riley as Coach, if he can’t instill the “killer” mentality on James no one can, few people like the Heat and few people like Riley, the “us against the world mentality” can be a powerful tool and Riley can certainly pull it off.
June 6th, 2012 at 6:21 am
Rondo is the best player on the floor this series.

If the Heat owner has ANY brains he will fire Riley, keep the big three together, and hire a new GM (Ronnie Lester) and Phil Jackson to coach the team.

It’s pretty simple, RRS.
Kobe doesn’t turn the ball over twice in the last 2 minutes of game 2, mike Brown has a brilliant game plan and coached his arsse off. If Gasoft takes a 5 foot layup in game 4 instead of throwing it to Durant cross court, same thing. Blake hits the 3 in the corner, same thing.
If Chalmers hits that wide open 3 at the end of last nights game, if D Wade hits the 3 in game 4 AT HOME, we are not here talking about Spoelstra. Phil Jackson was NOT a HOF when he took over the Bulls. He was Spoelstra. guys like Paxson and Kerr actually hit their shots like Pietrus is to get the wins.
Players win games, IMO.

There is definitely cause for concern when 2 potential starters stink up the joint in any organized activities.
However, they are learning a new scheme and its still early. There will be several more sessions even before Training Camp.
Now, if they are still lost or stinking up the joint mid-way through camp, then the Raiders are in serious trouble.

Yeah Rock, I’m anxious to hear what Criner does when the action gets taken up a notch.
High hopes for young WR core this year. IF McFadden can stay healthy, this should be an explosive offense.
I’m also hoping the WC style being implemented will give the Raiders the ability to sustain drives and eat clock along with their quick strike capabilities.
The best way to improve the defense is to keep them off the field as much as possible.
June 6th, 2012 at 8:12 am
but then you’d try to twist thier tweets around saying getting beat in coverage doesn’t mean they were “stinking up the place” , Right?
****************
Dude, I follow all of those guys on twitter, and haven’t seen ANY of them say McClain or Branch are quoute “stinking up the place”. I have seen tweets that they had been beat on a play here or there but use your head Rock, do you expect them to make a play EVERY time? No one, not even Revis, or Ray Lewis, or Ed Reed do that. The offense gets paid to make plays too bro. These guys tweet it when a rookie makes a play, but the other 5 times they ran the same play where the vet defenders make the play, they dont mention it. You are blowing these things WAY out of proportion.
Dennis Allen was quoted as saying RoMac was actually doing quite well in OTA’s and was much further along than he expected at this time of year… thats our head coaches diagnosis on his overall performance, not a tweet about 1 play.
Show me an article or a tweet or ANY documentation that Branch, Romac or ANYONE on our defense for that matter is struggling or “stinking up the joint”. It would be the first I read of it.

@Bcz
“stinking up the joint” was my summary from the tweets I’ve been reading. Not thier actual words. By the way, those guys also point out great defensive plays being made. Example: Aaron Curry was a beast on the first day of OTA’s where media was allowed getting a INT and a “would-be” sack on Palmer. Corkran loves Wheeler and says Raider Nation will too, that he’ll be even better than Wimbley was for us. Curtis Taylor picking off Leinart, etc etc
where is all the love for Branch & McClain?
June 6th, 2012 at 8:19 am
“O wants to discuss Manning/Rivers this AM. nothing wrong with that. Any ideas of how we’re going to shut them down?”
Well the secondary was a concern last year and Spencer is an unproven starter along with Ron Bartell and is he injury free, we just don’t know.
One thing I do know is that Huff will be used differently and this should be his year to shine.
I would guess that we will add another corner somehow before the season starts.
For us to successfully beat Rivers and Manning we will need to get pressure up front and we will need McClian and Curry to get better at pass coverage to eliminate the dump off or short passes.
This to me is as big of an issue as the secondary because neither of these LB’s are very good against the pass and manning may be content to dump it off all day for 7 or 8 yard gains on every play.

JC will learn the offense and be a pro. good locker room guy & teammate. He does have a tendency to get hurt and fold in late season games though. He can manage the offense, but he’s not a guy you want to go pass happy with imo. I always liked JCamp, but it made me sick to see him be so uncompetitive.

You are missing MY point. They don’t tweet EVERY play.

@Bcz
I thought you mentioned last week we should consider adding Alan Ball (former Cowboy) to the CB crew?
***********
Alan Ball signed somewhere on Monday (where escapes me right now… Arizona maybe?)
June 6th, 2012 at 9:00 am
@Bcz
truthfully, I started that “myth” … but it’s true!
on 06/08 you’re gonna be in here pouring the Kool-Aid like the rest of us, predicting a 10-12 win season
************
Not true. I very rarely if ever put a numerical prediction on our season. Not my style brother. Again, I really think this is in your head. I post the same stuff no matter what day it is.
June 6th, 2012 at 9:01 am
Sorry, Ball signed with the Texans.
June 6th, 2012 at 9:05 am
I haven’t seen a single tweet about Lamarr Houston, should we be concerned? No…

@Bcz
Houston hasn’t been mentioned in any negative plays either. Also, it’s hard to get a gauge on OL & DL during “no contact” OTA’s – wouldn’t you agree?
It is alarming that McClain & Branch are getting beat in coverage though imo
June 6th, 2012 at 9:09 am

you wouldn’t consider Goodman (if the price is right) who has plenty of starting experience and ties to Dennis Allen?

I think we just all have to adjust to this blog NOT being the 1st go to place concerning the latest Raider news.
It doesn’t mean this can’t be a great place to talk Raiders (or whatever) in regard to the news we get elsewhere.
This always used to be the place to go 1st for me.
Maybe they don’t want to be “the place to go” anymore.
That’s fine. It is what it is.

June 6th, 2012 at 9:11 am
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang! bcz24 is takin’ a little this morning but I actually see his point.
The offense has little concern right now other than scheme. Defense has concerns all over from Dline to secondary and LB’s. Here’s hoping the scheme DA installs in this defense will prove a lot of us wrong.

June 6th, 2012 at 8:54 am
Oh yeah, Linebackers are an area of concern this year, depth at that unit is very thin. I was just adressing the secondary. A lot of people (maybe not you) are saying our secondary is a concern, and I say it has been upgraded. There aren’t many available corners, none more qualified than what we already have at this point.

June 6th, 2012 at 9:47 am
The Oakland Raiders announced Monday that fullback Marcel Reece had finally signed his exclusive rights tender, and joined the team for the remainder of Organized Team Activities. With the fairly recent acquisition of fullback Owen Schmitt it would appear that Oakland’s backfield could be a bit crowded come training camp.
One solution this Raider Nation Times writer suggests is moving Marcel Reece to Tight End. Don’t get me wrong, Reece is a pro-bowl caliber fullback, but what makes him special is his wide receiver skill set. Reece has been the “Swiss Army Knife” of the Oakland Raiders. He began as an undrafted free agent wide receiver out of Washington but was converted to fullback under Hue Jackson. He has excelled at every position he has been asked to play.
Greg Knapp runs a West Coast offense, where the fullback is used primarily as a blocker. In Hue Jackson’s “EA Sports offense,” Reece was able to show off his hands, and was more or less used as a wide receiver that happened to line up in the back field. If Reece sticks with the fullback position under Knapp’s offense, he would likely be less productive, less explosive, and less useful in 2012.
The Raiders did not draft a tight end, nor did they attempt to fill the 6’7” void left by former starter Kevin Boss in free agency. The current tight ends on the Oakland roster are Brandon Myers, David Ausberry and Richard Gordon. Myers, although a solid, reliable tight end out of “Tight End University” (Iowa), lacks the game changing ability that Oakland needs at the position. David Ausberry has A LOT of upside, but is still developing, while Richard Gordon is strictly a blocking tight end.
Moving Reece to tight end would not only fill a gaping need, but it would maximize his talents in the system provided. In the words of Al Davis, put your playmakers in position to make plays, and with the blocking experience Reece has already acquired from playing fullback, I believe his skill set is better suited for the tight end position in a west coast offense. If Reece can transition from wide receiver to fullback, than he should have no problem transitioning from fullback to tight end.
What do you think Raider Nation? Can Reece be successful at fullback under Greg Knapp’s offense, or should he transition to tight end and let Owen Schmitt lead the way for McFadden?

Lol, Phil Jackson wants to run the Magic via telework from LA! Jeanie Buss must have some nice honey to keep Jackson in town!
“Representatives for Phil Jackson submitted a new proposal to the Orlando Magic on Tuesday for the 11-time NBA championship-winning coach to run the team.
It was reported last week that Jackson had decided against pursuing a role with the coachless team’s front office.
But according to a Sports Illustrated report early Wednesday, which cited sources, the discussions are still alive with the former Lakers and Bulls coach.
The latest version of the proposal reportedly has Pacers assistant and ex-Lakers assistant Brian Shaw as the coach of the team, with former Bulls star Scottie Pippen the lead assistant.
Former Bulls player Sam Vincent, who is leading the push, would occupy a front-office role, while Jackson would work remotely — likely from Los Angeles — for all but one week of each month.
One source said Jackson was also seeking a minority ownership stake in the Magic.
Magic CEO Alex Martins, however, does not appear to be in favor of the idea of an absentee leader, the report said.”

June 6th, 2012 at 10:38 am
Heading into the 2012 NFL draft, the Oakland Raiders focused on bringing depth throughout their roster. However, if there was one position fans felt was under control, it was the wide receiver position. The Raiders have drafted a receiver in each of the last five years and they each have had a unique skill set. Still, the Raiders decided to draft a receiver in the fifth round of the 2012 draft in Juron Criner.
Criner’s addition brings even more talent to an already crowded position. So with so much talent, who is on the outside looking in?
Darrius Heyward-Bey was on the hot seat in 2011 as a former top ten draft pick. 2011 turned out to be his breakout season, and despite his off-field incident, the Raiders are going to give Heyward-Bey the opportunity to prove 2011 was not a fluke. Denarious Moore was the rookie sensation in 2011 in training camp and it did not take long before that translated into the regular season.
Moore heads into the 2012 season with a bit of a target on his back as he has been given the label of playmaker and he may be the Raiders most natural receiver.
Another young receiver is Jacoby Ford. Though Ford was slowed by injury, he still was a big play weapon and because of his speed, Ford is a versatile weapon as a receiver and kick returner on special teams.
But what about Louis Murphy? Could he be the receiver on the hot seat in 2012?
Murphy was once considered a receiver on the rise for the Raiders. Drafted in the fourth round in 2009, he out performed first round pick Heyward-Bey easily. As Murphy led the team in receiving in 2009 and 2010, many fans wanted to call Murphy a number one receiver.
Similar to Ford, Murphy was slowed by injury in 2011. In that time Heyward-Bey and Moore showed they could be a dangerous duo headed into the future. With 15 receptions, 241 receiving yards and no touchdowns, Murphy could be sliding down the depth chart.
While Murphy nurses his injury, rookie Juron Criner is making a name for himself in OTA’s. Like Moore in 2011, Criner is looking like a playmaker that is destined to make the roster when the regular season begins.
However, Criner is not the only rookie receiver taking advantage of his opportunity.
Fellow rookie Rod Streater is also making the best of his chance to turn heads. Not much is known of the undrafted free agent out of Temple. At 6’4″ and 200 pounds, Streater seems like the perfect red zone threat, as the Raiders struggled in the red zone in 2011. It is unlikely Streater beats out Murphy for the final receiver spot, but Streater will do everything in his power to force the Raiders’ coaching staff to make a difficult decision.
Murphy is not a lost cause. He was once a very promising player that was a lone bright spot on an otherwise ineffective Raiders’ offense. It may be an uphill battle to return to that prominence, but his efforts may be solely focused on proving he is still a valued player at his position

All judges are called Honorable. It is your title when you become a judge. Just like Doctor so and so is your name if you obtain a doctorate.
Sorry, no way you can convice me that abandoning your property at my place for EIGHT YEARS without contact could in any way shape or form be considered theft.
I know for a 100% fact that if you leave an automobile at my residence for a year without contact, I can go to the DMV and get an abandoned title. My buddy did it about 3 years ago, because his ‘friend’ asked him to store a car for a month, and never came back or called or anything. He went to the DMV, got a title and sold it (after about 14 months). I doubt if it would be different for any other form of property.

Nate Webster sentenced to 12 years in prison for sex with minor
Posted by Michael David Smith on June 6, 2012, 12:24 PM EDT
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/06/06/nate-webster-sentenced-to-12-years-in-prison-for-sex-with-minor/
Former NFL linebacker Nate Webster has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for having sex with a teenage girl.
Webster was found guilty of four counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor in April and has been locked up since then. He was accused of having a sexual relationship with a girl when she was 15 and he was in his 30s, and of threatening to kill her and her family if she told anyone. Webster admitted he had sex with the girl but claimed it was consensual and that the sexual relationship began after she turned 16, which is the age of consent in Ohio.
The girl is the daughter of an NFL assistant coach. To preserve the victim’s privacy, neither the girl nor her father are being publicly identified.
Webster could have been sentenced to up to 20 years in prison. Prosecutors said that before the trial, he turned down a plea deal that would have sent him to prison for four years. Webster played for the Buccaneers from 2000 to 2003, for the Bengals in 2004 and 2005 and for the Broncos from 2006 to 2008.

Inception was the dumbest, most overrated movie I have ever seen …
Also, Leonardo Dicaprio might be in some decent movies, but his character isn’t believable. It doesn’t matter if you act like Tarzan, when you look like Jane.
June 6th, 2012 at 11:26 am
I thought another great movie was Inception, just can’t get too lit to follow it.lol
June 6th, 2012 at 11:27 am
What’s Eating Gilbert Grape! lol Good movie we were forced to watch in high school
***
LOL, I remember that Tx!
Leonardo Dicaprio is about as much of a “tough guy” as Haley Joel Osment
June 6th, 2012 at 11:28 am
You OK with that Tx? Movies where you can’t get lit up to watch ‘em?

Not to defend the guy, but I think in some states the legal age is 16.
*************
Seriously, it’s legal in Thailand at ANY age, does that make it morally right, or any less dispicable.
The guy was in his thirtys, and an NFL player, he couldn’t pull a chick besides someone on the cusp between her 15th and 16th birthdays? If a man in his 30s is ok sleeping with a 16 year old child, why not 15… why not a 12 year old who developed quickly and looks 16.

The movie made MILLIONS of dollars in profit, and was very highly praised by almost any critic who watched it. That is not overrated.
You may not have enjoyed the movie, but you can’t say it was overrated.

TxRaider,
Yeah that’s it. I could see him having the rep as not being a “mans man” with his role in Titanic but he does challenge himself.

Never understood it the 1st time and never bothered to watch it again.

Jason Tarver and secondary coach Johnnie Lynn, Spencer has some familiar faces — and schemes — from their days together in San Francisco.
“Yeah, (I’m) very excited for Shawntae,” Tarver said. “(He) looks good, out here moving around. Just excited for him to have an opportunity. Always had very good cover skills. Looking forward to seeing him in this scheme because he’s got a good feel for it.”
***
everybody still hating on Spence?
think DVD or Check gonna beat him out?
June 6th, 2012 at 11:39 am
Call Leo what you want, but the dudes film career speaks for itself. He makes the studios tons of money
June 6th, 2012 at 11:40 am
With 11 career interceptions, Spencer is seen by some as more the ball hawk. A change in scenery won’t change that. Not even with any preconceived notions.
“It’s no nonsense,” Spencer said of the current Raiders’ climate. “You hear different things, you know, when I came in, about previous staffs and things like that and how different this one is. It’s no nonsense. It doesn’t matter who you are or what you’ve done. They want everyone to embrace the team concept and playing together and playing within each scheme.
“It’s very in your face as far as Coach Allen, very, very instrumental on the defense, especially with the secondary, he’s a secondary coach, he knows what it looks like, what it’s supposed to look like and that’s what he’s demanding from us.”
***
everybody still think our secondary will be a heaping pile of stink ??
Allen & Tarver are both former DB’s. they ain’t gonna stand by and watch the D-Backs get abused or give them a pass for it. DA is a SUper Bowl Champion DB Coach, gents!

Basic plot summary, Leo is paid to get some guy to sell his fathers company. He does this by entering the dudes dream, but his cohorts know you cant just get this guy to give up his fathers life work willy nilly. Leo knows how to do it, Inception, planting the seed as a very basic idea so the guy thinks its his own idea to sell the company. He knows it will work because he did it to his wife by accident and she killed herself. The down 3 levels of dreaming (a dream within a dream within a dream) to plant the “inception’ of the idea. It works. The end… basically. Also you aren’t supposed to know at the very end if Leo is in the real world or a dream when he gets home to his family

Allen is a 4-3 guy and Tarver is a 3-4 guy, which explains how we can be “multiple”
I don’t know how they’ll be on the same page all the time. Is Allen going to let his coaches coach?
Hue Jackson wouldn’t let Chuck B stick to the same ol thing that his players were trained to do and Al Davis used to mandate. Results were disasterous!
Davis bringing in 3-4 DC Rob Ryan to run a 4-3 was pretty pathetic too, imo

I think what I’m getting at is that are the Raiders going to wise-up regarding the game situation and play accordingly. Way to often the “D” has been caught with their pants down by being in the wrong defense, with the wrong personnel on the field. These can change.
