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.

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. ========= 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. Alex7 Says:

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. We’ve certainly had our share of great Corners.

Knapp has ONE year to have this O flying high with all the talent at his disposal. With Roscoe on board I predict our ST to have AT LEAST 4 tds this year.
