Parrish practicing with Raiders
By Steve Corkran
Tuesday, August 28th, 2012 at 11:59 am in Oakland Raiders.
Wide receiver/returner Roscoe Parrish is at practice, wearing No. 18, and taking part in all the drills, only hours after he signed with the Raiders.
Parrish is wearing the number last worn by wide receiver Louis Murphy. Parrish’s wore No. 11 with the Buffalo Bills. However, that is taken by kicker Sebastian Janikowski.
Given Parrish had been active and health-free, he is exempt from the three-day acclimation period afforded injured players. Therefore, he is able to practice right away, as well as play in Oakland’s game against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night.
We won’t know until after practice how coach Dennis Allen intends to use Parrish and whether Parrish will play Thursday.
Kick returner Jacoby Ford still is recovering from a left foot injury. Punt returner Denarius Moore is fighting through a lingering hamstring injury.
At this point, it’s not a stretch to envision Parrish handling all return duties in the regular-season opener against the San Diego Chargers on Sept. 10.
It’s also not out of the question for Parrish to remain in the fold when Ford and Moore return to full strength, at least on punt returns, his specialty.
– Ford, Moore, defensive tackle Richard Seymour, linebacker Aaron Curry and center Stefen Wisniewski are not practicing. Tight end Richard Gordon returned to practice after missing a stretch with sore ribs.
– Offensive coordinator Greg Knapp and defensive coordinator Jason Tarver are slated to speak with the media this afternoon. So, expect plenty from them in a later post.
– Parrish also is scheduled to address the media soon after practice.
– Today’s practice is the final one before the roster cutdown to 53 players Friday. Therefore, the game Thursday night will be the last chance for players to make a favorable impression upon the coaches.

Just watched the game last nite. They looked pretty good. Got a better feel for the offensive scheme. TJ has me feeling a lot better, Streater is our #1 possession WR, imo.

When has it been temporary? If dmc and dr.jones go down for a while we’ll have to add a rb off the couch.
—————
absolutley, I’m just saying to do that when the time comes. Unless there is someone worth adding now of course.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:06 pm
If Seymour’s knee is gonna be a problem all year, I see the need for Hamilton or Cumbie.
But outside of that I dont see them as essential.
Roster spot could be used elsewhere..
Underwood’s ability to play CB & FS along with ST’s makes me lean towards him being a lock.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:08 pm
5. Im right with your 51.. id take a rb from the cuts. Cumbie v hamilton thursday for the other spot..
August 28th, 2012 at 12:12 pm
Im pretty open to underwood too.. its the last spot. It could change a few times.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:19 pm
Chris Cooley available.
Raiders TE position muddled.
Cooley the character type that our GM and HC love.
Only 30 years old, so could have another 2 solid seasons in him.
Broken finger last year, not a long-term type of injury.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:19 pm
Seriously doubt that KK(Streater as #1 possession WR).DHB and Moore will be the starters if Moore can go.However,he will see a lot of action knowing how Moore and Ford can’t stay on the field.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:20 pm
Ravens & Raiders among the teams interested in Cooley.

I agree he probably won’t be the Starter, but I think maybe he should be.

Reggie Mac must have told Bruce Allen no way he was going to trade for Cooley when people know he is likely to be cut….nice move Reggie.
Now go get him if he is healthy.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:28 pm
cooley = zmill, and boss…concussion guy
August 28th, 2012 at 12:28 pm
From what I see, Streater would be my first choice on 3rd down. Looks like he and Palmer have a thang going on.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:28 pm
Cooley’s knee injury occured in 2010, and the year-long process to heal crossed into 2011, then he broke a finger.
So knee is by now 100%, but Fred Davis is just that good in Washington. Long-term Raider TE will likely be a draft pick in April, or Ausberry if blocking becomes adequate.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:28 pm
I like the idea of bringing in Cooley.
I dont like the idea of having to cut Myers, Gordon or Ausberry though.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:28 pm
15 players to cut isn’t that hard to come up with:
Colin Miller
Conroy Black
Curtis Taylor
Hall Davis
Lucas Nix
Eddy Carmona
Chad Kilgore
Kaelin Burnett
Nick Howell
Marquette King
Kevin Haslam
Dan Knapp
Kyle Efaw
Tory Humphrey
Derek Carrier
Brandon Carswell
Travionte Session
That’s 17 disposable players…and that is still keeping Cumbie, Hamilton, McGee, Lonyae Miller,and Brian McCann if Roscoe doesn’t work out.
Reggie has lots of room to upgrade the roster on cut day.
August 28th, 2012 at 12:29 pm
opps…my bad…22 have to go…add those last players back on…LOL
August 28th, 2012 at 12:30 pm
Can Cooley run block or is he just a glorified slow WR who plays TE?
Seems kind of smallish.

With these inexperienced/injured WRs, Palmer could use a veteran TE who can produce.
Myers is okay, but I think Cooley would be a good upgrade at least in the passing game.

If the staff checks Cooley out and Reggie’s gut tells him to sign Cooley, then Myers should be cut. Keep the two younger TEs.
We know Myers has hit his ceiling.

It’s not like D-lineman are getting cut blocked in practice or being asked to run ladders or something.

He was a WR, we converted him.
So in the draft he was being looked at in terms of being a WR.
By that logic Marcel Reece should have been a 3rd round pick as a WR?..

If we do bring in a vet TE and plan on keeping the other three, I believe Schmidt would be out. I don’t see us keeping 4 TE and 2 FB when TE’s can play as a FB in alot of situations.

If we do bring in a vet TE and plan on keeping the other three, I believe Schmidt would be out. I don’t see us keeping 4 TE and 2 FB when TE’s can play as a FB in alot of situations.

Lots of concern about our depth at CB and LB. Well doucumented and justified.
Tell you one area we should be worried about too.
G-d help us if V goes down.
If he does, most likely looking at Barnes sliding over to LT with Barks taking over at RT. Or maybe Bergs at RT. Possibly Barks at LT, but I can’t see that.
V better stay healthy bcz I don’t like any of the above scenarios.
See the Rams traded Jason Smith to the Jets. Former number 2 overall pick. Wouldn’t have minded given him a look.

Dumb move by the discs to cut him knowing our current injury woes with WR/KR’s. Parrish is a weapon in the return game. We need Hoffman to get his is together quick and unleash Parrish against the disc on Monday night!!

145. Right? I hated that..
August 28th, 2012 at 1:47 pm
Hmm, well, I think a lot of people will be disappointed. I don’t think we are a playoff team… yet. We are just paper thin. I love how our defense has played thus far, ranked 4th in the NFL, allowing opposing runners less than 4ypc, holding Megatron to 1 catch for 6 yards, keeping Detroits starters out of the end zone for the first half all very positive things.
I am very concerned about our offensive consistancy though. Palmer has made some less than stellar decisions so far and that worries me, I think if he plays through september the way he did through August he will spend the rest of the season holding Leinarts clip board.
I think we are a better team than last year, but we have a brutal schedule ahead, including the most traveling of any team in the NFL. That will take its toll. I really want to see improvement. If we are a middle of the pack defense, and middle of the pack in penalties, I will call the season a win even if we miss the playoffs.

Parrish hasn’t been a weapon in the return game in a couple of years… The problem isn’t the returners its the guys that are supposed to be creating the holes. We are desperately gonna miss Cartwright this year. I truly hope he gets cut in SF. He was the key on a number of Fords TDs. Jones and Goodson can both be explosive if they can get a block.
Roscoe is a hell of an upgrade over Dmo at PR though, that has just been awful. At least Parrish knows when to fair catch and when to let it go.

After watching the Detroit game again, I just don’t see how DVD sticks.
Not only has his coverage been piss poor, he’s so freaking light and weak it’s almost comical.
Take another look at the play at about 14:15 of the 4th qtr.
Pass to the TE adjacent to the defensive right sideline. DVD attempts to knock the TE who is tightroping the sideline, out of bounds. TE swats him like a fly, DVD is knocked on his ass. DVD is a puny gnat.
Luckily the play got called back on a hold.
Before the pre-season began I gave DVD a good chance at winning the RCB battle. Now I can’t see him making the roster. What a disappointment.

DVD played better in coverage than the last couple games, but he needs to tackle better. he has way to much upside to cut already, he has showed the coaches what he can do, now he has to do it in a game and show the fans.

I hope so. And next in line, Knapp should disappear.
Greg Knapp sux. His play calling stinks.
Watch the end of the first half again. The possession that the Raids got the 54 yd FG. The play call on the pass that Myers dropped is absolute CRAP. Not a chance in the world at gaining any yardage and if it’s caught the clock is running.
Piss poor call from a piss poor coordinator.
Kudos to Taiwan for his vault to get out of bounds and enable the FG attempt.
Don’t want to hear anything more about Knapp being OK bcz the Raids racked up yards. Knapp sucks. His play calling is crap. His offensive style stinks. He’ll run pass routes short of a first down on 3rd all day long.
He’s an ass clown that needs to go.

Just watch the o-line on those plays, they are shifting backwards away from the goal line or getting blown off the goal line, I can’t tell which….that isn’t the RB’s fault, that is just some crap goal line play by the o line…..or bad scheme.
If you can have a hybrid 3-4 4-3 defenses like some teams, why can’t the o-line have a little power blocking set for when the ball is inside the 3 yard line?

I watched the Texans play the Saints for a tad, and on one play from about the 4 yard line, they ran one of those long-winded counter ZBS plays for Foster, and he basically walked into the end zone. Never even had to get into a light jog.
I don’t think it is Knapp as the issue, it is Briesel and Parson getting manhandled.
August 28th, 2012 at 2:21 pm
Right when Checkwa got in they picked on him and didn’t stop, how could people miss this? Maybe they will both go, we cut bait last year with a couple 2nd year mid/late round cornerbacks. I myself would keep DVD over Checkwa if I had to choose who to keep.

The ZBS is about exploiting cut back lanes and SPACE.
Last time I checked, there wasn’t much space around the goal line.

During practice games.
Do you think coaches show the entire playbook during these games or something?
+++++++++++++
They already ran the plays earlier in preseason, so why not run the same plays again to see if it works against live competition? See if you can get better at it at least? You can’t un-run a play you already showed the world in your first two preseason games can you?

Hey, Checkwa looked lousy too, but at least he can make a tackle and play some special teams.
Was playing gunner and was first down and nearly recovered a bobbled punt.
DVD has done NOTHING but get abused.
Hope to heck he really had a great camp, bcz based on his game performance alone – he’s history.

DVD is another of these “high ceiling” guys that I guess we are just supposed to stash on the 53 man roster and have him inactive on gamedays, in the hopes he can start in 2015 or something.

I like Papa a lot but he has been waaaay off on some calls this preseason.
He was going ape in the AZ game because he thought intentional grounding isn’t a spot foul.
Then this past game, he is thinking personal foul’s aren’t supposed to be half the distance to the goal unless you are inside the 15.
So Greg, personal foul on the 16 yard line takes you to the 1, but from the 14 yard line, you only go to the 7??
WTF is smoking?
August 28th, 2012 at 2:30 pm
Every year I get to here people picking some unknown player to be the next star,or take somebody elses posistion as starter.Heard it about nick miller, David Ausberry.On and on.Rod streater ia undrafted rookie!He will not be a #1 receiver over Heyward-bey or Moore.Jeeez that crap drives me nuts.

Raiders offensive coordinator Greg Knapp said creating special packages for No. 3 QB Terrelle Pryor to run is …
“a possibility. It creates some good chess matches with defensive coaches.” Would depend on which 46 players are active on game day and if injuries allowed for a No. 3 QB to be one of them.

RM99,
Not only is Slo-mania going to sweep over the AFC West, but Knapp is going to put up more points this year, than we scored last year.
===================================================
Wouldn’t rule that out. But I’ll tell you what – with Palmer at QB instead of Jason Cantball, and a healthy DMAC (keeping fingers crossed) the Raids BETTER score more points.
I expect nothing less.
Still, Knapp sux. Expect to see more asinine calls like the short pass to Myers that I mentioned earlier. Just indefensible crap. Don’t care if it’s the pre-season. That’s GARBAGE.
Besides, I know you can’t relate to this, (as you’ve said many times you weren’t around for the glory years and just want to finally win now, regardless of style) – but Knapp ball ain’t RAIDER ball.
RAIDER ball should be smashmouth, pound the fool in front of you. Stretch the field VERTICALLY, not horizontally.
Knapp failed here once before and he’s gonna wash out again.
Slo ain’t much of a LB, maybe he can be the offensive coordinator.

Hmm, well, I think a lot of people will be disappointed. I don’t think we are a playoff team… yet. We are just paper thin. I love how our defense has played thus far, ranked 4th in the NFL, allowing opposing runners less than 4ypc, holding Megatron to 1 catch for 6 yards, keeping Detroits starters out of the end zone for the first half all very positive things.
I am very concerned about our offensive consistancy though. Palmer has made some less than stellar decisions so far and that worries me, I think if he plays through september the way he did through August he will spend the rest of the season holding Leinarts clip board.
==================
I will agree with almost everything you said here. However I think palmer should get more rope than only the month of september. I think the lienart is kyle boller with out the arm strength. If palmer stinks the team will tank and lienart isnt a good enough player to save the season. He wont be able to lead us into the playoffs either. he may be a better fit in this offense, but he clearly isnt nearly as good a player as palmer. If palmer goes out after 7-8 games, turn it over to the young prospect TP. this way by seasons end we will know if we need to draft a qb.
I have said it since last season, new ownership, new front office, new coach and new qb equal a full on rebuild.

Everybody knew DVD was a project player when he was drafted.Cutting him now would be rediculous.I think is upside is great.
August 28th, 2012 at 2:44 pm
We will lose Cumbie if he is cut, he will not survive waivers to reach the practice squad; there are a few teams he could start, definately be 2nd string.
Kilgore is a keeper, he makes plays.
McGee needs huge game against Seattle (for what it’s worth he is still listed ahead of criner on depth chart).
DVD, Chekwa, Lee, Underwood,: would not be surprised if Black beats out one of them for a roster spot.
I also expect Nix to make 53-man roster, Raiders to carry 9 OL.
Hamilton could make 53-man roster as well, Reggie could be letting other teams know you are not getting any of our quality DTs for free.
Curry going to PUP would open up another spot for the first six weeks.

JFB, I know you couldn’t stand Hue.
You know how I’ve slammed Hue for his game management, not having the squad even show up for Mia and GB, refusing to admit mistakes and learn from them, the power grab, etc.
But Hue took aggression to the extreme.
Probably took it too far. There was no doubt if Hue had to choose between keeping it on the ground late and running clock OR going for the dagger with a pass play – that ball was seeing the air. No fking question abt it. It wasn’t predictable – it was guaranteed !
Fake punts. Fake FG’s.
Balls to the wall.
Know we got Gregg Sominex Knapp.
Gregg Knapp is the antithesis of RAIDER ball and needs to hit the road.

August 28th, 2012 at 2:59 pm
The way TP has been criticized by some after his first two nfl pre season games would make you believe he was the next ryan leaf. However after spending time taking in lots of pre season football I have seen that simply isnt true. As I type TP is on par with many 1st, 2nd and 3rd year qbs around the leauge in terms of passing the ball.
Some young qbs that are starting are huge question marks and have been just as likely to throw a pick as people have said tp is. jake Locker, christian ponder, brandon weeden, tannehill, gabbert have ranged between lees than spectacular to out right awful during the course of games. i see TP in a similar mode, he is young and will make rookie mistakes. I would argue that pryor has just as much if not more upside than any of these guys. hell he even has better numbers than our starter, so when his time comes give him a long look.
he is no further behind other back ups around the leauge as well. Gusy like seneca wallace tyrod taylor tim tebow, (mark sanchez), colt mccoy and so on.
I think we have been a bit to harsh on the kid, and he is proving the doubters wrong. he is no more likeley to throw a pick than anyone else on this list, I think we have a kid worth committing some real time and coaching to.

This morning you contradicted me and said that you liked the pickup.
Reality tells us that Parrish played only two games last year ecause of his ankle and hasn’t played that many games over the last 3-4 years.
It also tells us that the dischargers got him through free angency from Buffalo who couldn’t wait to lose him and after a look the dischargers dumped him too.
He can’t cost much though so it doesn’t hurt to look.

August 28th, 2012 at 3:31 pm
We’ve certainly had our share of great Corners.
Willie Brown, Lester, Haynes, CWood.
Just a great call to take Lester in the 5th and move him to Corner. Al at his best.
Some other goodies. Terry McDaniel for a while. Eric Allen. Doctor Death (RIP). Nnamdi.
Al had good success identifying CB’s that could play ‘bump and run’.
Really hurt the Raids when the NFL legislated against the bump and run. That was a Raider trademark, and once upon a time we had the horses to run it. And run it we did, WAY more than anyone else.
Became a joke later on. But that heavy man-to-man stuff was fun to watch and really worked well at one time.

Only 30 years old, so could have another 2 solid seasons in him.
Broken finger last year, not a long-term type of injury.
=========
Ordinarily, i’d say that ship has sailed, and we had gone through this with Kevin Boss. But Cooley ran a slightly similar deal over in Washington and just might add something. I think organization worried if he’s injury prone and on a guaranteed deal – but TE is non-existent. The upside is we wouldnt have to give anything up to get him. Kahlil Bell might get a look, too.

No, havent noticed it. I think thats a little TOO observant of you as well. Lets just wins some games – he could be a tranny for all i care. Really NOT weird, good coach, hopefully.

Al had his problems drafting guys with speed,but the one thing ive learned studying this team over 37 years is not to ever question Al’s picks on corners.
+++++++++++++++
Yeah, that Washington guy was good, and so was Philip Buchanan….so glad we took him in front of Ed Reed!
I can think of 1 good CB Al Drafted since 1990 and that was a no-brainer in Woodson….and 1 guy he drafted and converted into a CB and that was Nnamdi….otherwise who are we talking about here?
================
He missed on SEVERAL players and Ed Reed, and Ben Roethlisberger were two of the glaring ones. I think the way fate works, the Raiders EASILY would’ve been a different team, had they taken Ben instead of Robert Gallery.
Hind sight is 20/20, but it appeared he front loaded the team with dozens of questionable free agents. That decision to pick up Ronnie Jenkins over Rodney Harrison was abysmal. I mean we could go on and on… Sebastian Janikowski over Shaun Alexander, etc.
I think the Raiders hadn’t been in the top 7 for a long time, and without a GM that was trusted, a lot of picks and badly put together shaky head coaching regimes.

Parrish couldn’t make the team in SD and they are desperate for receivers. I dont see him as anything more than a temp fill-in until Ford and/or Moore are healthy.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This morning you contradicted me and said that you liked the pickup.
Reality tells us that Parrish played only two games last year ecause of his ankle and hasn’t played that many games over the last 3-4 years.
It also tells us that the dischargers got him through free angency from Buffalo who couldn’t wait to lose him and after a look the dischargers dumped him too.
He can’t cost much though so it doesn’t hurt to look.
=====================
Once again, someone who can’t tell the difference between the words “win” and “fire”. I will fight my own battles, but dont make me fight someone else’s. Ha Ha
