Raiders make it official _ Hagan is back

By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Thursday, September 6th, 2012 at 8:11 am in Oakland Raiders.

Put away the X-box, Derek Hagan is back.

The Raiders confirmed Thursday they had signed the veteran wide receiver to a contract to shore up a position group that could be short-handed when they open the regular season Monday night against the San Diego Chargers.

Hagan, 27, made the Raiders with a strong training camp as a possession receiver last season and played in six games, catching 11 passes for 114 yards. He was cut to make room for T.J. Houshmandzadeh and finished the season with 13 catches for 138 yards and one touchdown in four games with the Buffalo Bills.

A strong veteran presence, Hagan falls in line with the type of attitudes sought by general manager Reggie McKenzie and coach Dennis Allen. Former coach Hue Jackson noted the serious nature displayed by Hagan during last year’s camp.

“He understands that instead of going in and playing X-Box at night and trying to figure out how to score on that video game, he goes in, takes his book, opens it and works on it,’’ Jackson said.

When asked about it by reporters, Hagan said, “I don’t play X-box too much. I do, but there’s no reason. We’re in training camp, and you shouldn’t even be playing video games. You got to get your study time in. This is my job, this is my profession and it’s something I love to do. I try to stick what I do best and that’s playing football.”

In seven seasons with Miami, the New York Giants, the Raiders and most recently Buffalo, Hagan has 109 receptions for 1,221 yards and six touchdowns. He played the final four games of the 2012 season in Buffalo with 13 catches for 138 yards and one touchdown.

The Raiders also reportedly looked at veteran wide receiver Jabar Gaffney Wednesday as they could enter their season opener against the San Diego short on receivers.

Denarius Moore (hamstring) and Jacoby Ford (foot) have been out for extended periods of time and rookie Juron Criner (ankle) has been hobbling in practice.

To make room for Hagan on the roster, cornerback Coye Francies was waived.

    Raiders!

  2. Seymour Bush Says:

    Two weeks of practice with Palmer last year should help. Can we start firing up the waiver wire for Ford?

    =============================================

    2011 Stats:

    Hagan: 10 games played, 24 catches for 252 yards and 1 TD.
    Murphy: 11 games played, 15 catches for 241 yards and no TDs.

    Numbers don’t lie. Hagan’s the better wideout.

    Question is not if any of the current group of Wr’s get waived, but how serious is the injury?

    Solid Pickup! Another good football player! No drama queen and someone who can help move the sticks.

  9. Just Fire Baby Says:

    Man, just 5 months ago, I got blasted unilaterally in here for just saying we should ATTEMPT to trade him.

    Will Hagan play the gunner on punt returns like he did at times for us last year?

  12. Thec Says:

    We were told by the ORG that, DMO was shut down for the rest of presea.

    We anticipated he would be back for the disc dismantle.

    How severe is the hamstring injury?

  14. guest123 Says:

    Aha! There’s something I always liked about Hagan but forgot about it. That he hates video games and is a major football nerd. We need more of those types. First time I saw some of the UDFA’s that we eventually cut interview and talk about their X-Box handles, I got a bad feeling about them.

  15. RaiderRoman Says:

    Can wait to see our new look D in action. What surprises await us? Open the the game with the theme song Autumn Wind followed by Ice Cubes Anthem!

  16. RaiderDuck Says:

    Waiving a DB instead of putting Ford on reserve makes me wonder if we’re still not thinking of adding Gaffney post-week 1.

  17. Macho Man Randy Savage Says:

    We need some healthy hands in here. DHB is healthy, but he is more a decoy than a possesion receiver. Streater has good hands, but he is a rookie, we dont know how he will react on the MNF stage…Hagan is a good signing, he should stick even after the other WRs come back.

  18. Marks hair Says:

    Foot injuries are always serious.

    =============================================

    Hammies aren’t real fun to deal with. They always say to wait until the hammy feels 100% healthy, THEN wait another couple of weeks afterwards. Any sooner and you might re-pull it. Maybe Moore re-pulled his?

    “If” the ORG felt that way, he would have been gone after he went down.

    He gets waived, he will last a total of no more than 5 minutes.

    THE first team in line would pick him up.

    Glad the ORG does not listen to the “fans”.

  21. RaiderRoman Says:

    I think Cry me a Rivers is gonna have a bad day! He can thank his LT after the game.

  22. Just Fire Baby Says:

    I give The Reggie credit for making more moves than I anticipated, after the cuts.

    The man has a plan in place.

    *******

    Hamstrings are usually bad news for wideouts. Who knows if DMo’s strings are spaghetti right now? They are to WR’s what turf toe is to RB’s. And even if he does start, he’s a huge risk to tweak it on any given play and then be shut down again for 6 weeks. It’s too long to wait for him to be well, and maybe it’s too optimistic to expect a healthy DMo this year.

  24. Klas Tjorborn Says:

    Moore will be ready for the playoffs.

  25. Just Fire Baby Says:

    He gets waived, he will last a total of no more than 5 minutes.

    ************************

    Absolutely, waiving him would make zero sense.

    The guy still has trade value, it is just greatly diminished from when I wanted to look at trading him.

    Buy low sell high!!!

  26. RaiderRoman Says:

    Why is it we seem to get great talent only to follow it with great injuries? Can anyone recall if Tim Brown ever had injuries that consistently kept him off the field?

  27. Just Fire Baby Says:

    I see no way Moore starts, and if he is active, will probably only see 15 snaps or so.

    Fake a reverse, maybe run a few short routes.

    Probably won’t let him make too many cuts on the dirt (damn that fkn stuff) or run too many 50 yard flys.

  28. theghostronin79 Says:

    Yeah, Hagan is no Schlubb. I”m WAY happier about getting him than the Plaxico Talk. I feel very comfortable with him sharing the field with DHB and Streater. If they wanna throw Moore on the PUP for 6 weeks, I can rest easy knowing Hagan is on the job.
    Nice, nice, nice

    Brown blew out his knee. But after that seemed real solid.

  30. guest123 Says:

    Ford may be a lost cause. I agree that foot injuries are bad news, but in this case he hurt the same foot in the same place as last years injury. Which tells you it’s chronically degenerative. It’s only getting weaker from here on out. Hindsight being 20/20 if there was ever a market for trading Ford, the window has passed. What was he ever going to get us, being drafted as a 4th rounder, another 7th rounder. There was no great loss in not trading him either. Let’s hope he recovers soon, or Reggie feels different he needs to be IR’d already.

    I’m no Plax fan. But we should have signed him instead of Hagan. Who do we have that can catch the red zone scoring pass down low? Anyone proven at all? Plax has the height and ability to score TD’s. He may not be worth much between the 20’s but he’s deadly down low.

    I am actually just kidding, but we still might want to wheel the waiver machine out of the garage, you know, to clean it up a bit.

  36. RaiderRoman Says:

    I almost have to think that the CBA is creating windows of opportunities for injuries by not allowing more practice and training time. I just don’t think
    That players today are disciplined enough on their own to focus on all aspects of their body such as stretching and flexibility. I remember reading about how Hershel walker too ballet or something like that to stay flexible. I think all players today think about is strength training and gaining or losing weight.

  37. guest123 Says:

    Streater is going to be a star on Monday Night.

  38. Thec Says:

    We should get an idea from the ORG on where these guys are today with regards to injuries, as they have to report today.

    I am not happy with the trading for LMURPHY however thems the brakes.

    I doubt we pick up anyone before the disc game however, depending on the injury to DMO and JFORD, 1 could be headed for the “temp IR”.

    We could be picking up a WR, or brining someone up from the PS.

    Maybe. I’ll defer to Raiders doctors. But it’s concerning that it’s not just the same foot but the same place in the same foot. That to me seems like it COULD be a degenerative condition. Ask me about my bad back and I’ll tell you it’s always hurt in the same spot and it is degerative.

    That and Jacoby talking about playing with an orthodic in his shoe from here on out to compensate. That seems like a telltale signal. But I defer to medical experts.

    With what part?

    Criner will be able to play even if he’s not 100%. He still practiced.

    DHB and Streater will start.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if Moore is active – but if he is, he’ll likely see reduced snaps, only in packages they know he’s comfortable in.

    Hagan will be active for mainly a special teams role.

    Look for McFadden and Reece to be put in the slot and split out wide. Look for more multiple-TE sets.

    They’re not going to lean on their WRs Monday night, but I would be completely unsurprised if they had 5 active just so they could use them if they need to.

    Burris isnt in football shape, dude. And is too expensive. You just dont get this GM thing, do you.

    Impressions of Willie Smith
    Ya’all know Willie was picked up by Reggie off the waiver wire right after 53
    cutdown. I was curious to see what we got so I had a look at the 1st half of
    the Redskins/Giants game from last year (NFL Game Rewind). I believe this
    was Willie’s second start of the season, here playing LT, being thrown to the
    wolves vs Giants emerging DE Jason Pierre-Paul (JPP). Here’s what I saw:

    Smith looks rangy and pretty athletic. He moves quickly, when he has to,
    with fast feet. He seems kind of relaxed and laid back, not an especially high
    motor guy, but adequate hustle. He is a better pass blocker than run blocker.
    He did a good job mirroring and getting in JPP’s way keeping him off Rex
    Grossman. The one sack JPP got in the first half was the TE’s blown
    assignment not Willie’s. JPP beat Willie once for a hurry on the QB, but
    otherwise Willie stonewalled him moving well and using his long arms to fend
    him off. Smith also looked good at instantly changing assignment on the fly
    to adjust to the blitz.The Skin’s run game is pure Shanahan ZBS, so Smith
    did a lot of moving and 2nd level blocking. Sometimes he never engaged
    anyone as the play moved away from him, so he would just drift rather than
    finding someone to mash like Wiz II (or Wiz I). Smith tends just to push
    people with his arms when run blocking rather than lay into them–and thats
    my guess why he got cut in the glut of Skins O-linemen this year, yet he
    popped a good block solid block on the Giants MLB to spring Skins tailback
    for an 11 yd TD.

    All in all a pretty good half for a raw rookie vs. the fearsome Giants. I think
    he can fill in well at either tackle for the Raiders. He doesn’t look as
    powerful as Barksdale, but he seems to have better instincts and is more
    fluid and quicker. Could challenge Barnes for the RT job after awhile. Kudos
    to Reggie for swooping up a good crumb from the Skins table.

    Again, I don’t understand what you’re disagreeing with. Do you think the Raiders will have 3 or 4 WRs active instead of 5? Do you think they’re going to sign another WR?

    Not on Monday. He’ll probably see a few offensive snaps, but I doubt they’re going to work a guy into the game plan if he’s been able to practice with the team only three times before game day. That’s a Hue Jackson move, but doesn’t seem like a Dennis Allen move.

    I could see his role on offense being as a blocker on stretch run plays out of 3-WR sets. Might have a few things thrown his way, but it’s too late in the game to work him into the entire gameplan by plugging him in where Moore or Ford would usually be.

    the Al Davis “win on individual talent” mantra still persists.

    Different game – Pats were like 32 in defense, still went to SB . You need a team built through the draft, practice squad, and less higher priced free agents.

    the last free agent heavy team to win a ring? – the 2000 Baltimore Ravens. And that was with the greatest defense of all time

    the others – draft or veteran heavy – Colts, Saints, Patriots, Steelers, Giants

    Gaffney isn’t playing…but that doesnt mean he might not be signed a couple of weeks in so his deal isn’t materialized.

    You know if the Pats stayed with Chad Johnson, and cut a guy Brady himself lobbied for something is up – REGARDLESS OF HIS PAST performance.

    again, people are projecting Gaffney or Burris is going to contribute without having seen him in the offense or acclimated to Palmer, etc.

    Again, its understandable. A lot of losses pile up and it adds to a pattern of second guessing.

    Boller was out of the league for a year before we scraped him up from dead, and had twice as many turnovers as TD’s his last half dozen or so starts, and lost his last 6 or 7 starts before joining us.

    But when Ioff and a few others brought this up last season, I got the long-winded “he can make every throw, he is better than Gradkowski, he knows Hue’s system” company-line.

    =======================

    I think Myers is going to surprise. He’s not going to look like Vernon Davis or Jimmy Graham out there, but he’ll do enough to keep the offense moving. Seems like Palmer looks his way quite a bit.

    The Raiders will try to upgrade at TE at some point (almost certainly after the season), but if you look at the guys they’ve had interest in this offseason, it’s pretty clear they’re not in the market for a guy who can unseat Myers as the starter for now.

    Maybe Cooley will be an option after week 1, but I’m skeptical on that one.

    Chilax man , we will be fine once the season starts ,we been hit with injuries at receiver spot and Palmer is learning a new O along with everyone else and OL is learning a new scheme, once they get acclimated to this new scheme and offense , we’ll have one of the top Offenses in league.. Rem no matter how much you want to criticize Knapp over his past gigs at OC , you have to think did he ever had a QB as talented as Palmer? Did he ever had a RB who’s as talented as McFadden ,please don’t count his rookie year,Did he ever had Oline as talented as our O line ,he’s going to have pretty good WRs too …only thing you can about is TE position…so I believe we’ll be fine

  141. Just Fire Baby Says:

    If we are hoping to run the ball “80% of the time” why do we care what routes Myers is running?

    He can block and catch, both fairly well, and that’s his value to us.

    We will upgrade him soon enough, probably with a mid-round draft pick next year, but for now, as long as he can continue to block well and catch the 8 yard passes thrown at him, he will not be any hinderance to our offenses’ ability to score points.

  142. Just Fire Baby Says:

    I saw two teams last night, with POWER O-line schemes, fail AT EVERY goalline to go and short yardage run play last night I saw.

    Giants had it first and goal from the 1 after the INT, two running plays later they were at the 5.

    not so sure we will be 80% run to pass ratio.

    The disc “WILL TRY” to diminish DMAC running therefore, I beleive they will commit 8 to the box.

    Forget about those stats. Hagan 6′2″, and Plex 6′5″. One is a proven TD machine down in the red zone and the other is not. Hagan much younger, but if given a choice gun to my head, it’s Plax and not close.

    Oh come on! These aren’t 5th graders being bussed to the projects to mix and mingle with the inner city middle school. These young guys all know how to handle themselves and Plaxico isn’t going to somehow ‘corrupt’ them. Not much credit is being given to our young corp. Bottom line is Plax fills a very important hole in the offense. We don’t have a scoring threat down inside the 10 yard line, and will be kicking a lot of Janikowski chip shots if we don’t find a reliable tall wideout who can get it done down there.

    **********

    Yes I did. I think he’s proven himself many times that he can sky for the ball in short fields and outmaneuver flex and shield the defender for the jump balls in the corner of the end zone. I don’t rely on him between the 20’s. He’s a specialist, like a Major League closer.

    Put another way, I don’t care a whit if Palmer throws for 300 yards if all that does is lead to long drives and short FG’s. What good do passing stats mean if they don’t culminate in scores. Now the other team knows we don’t have a receiver who is nails on the goal line and will stack the box to defeat McFadden’s push. And they will succeed. And now cue up Jano for the short 3. Yay!

  202. RaiderDuck Says:

    Generation after generation, we see “me-first” wideouts flout every rule and get away with it because they’re great players. Then as soon as their skills diminish even a little, teams decide they’re not worth the trouble and these same wideouts can’t find a job. And the next generation of receivers MAKES THE SAME MISTAKES! What’s happening with TO, Ochocinco and Plax right now is no different than what happened with Andre Rison, Keyshawn Johnson and Vance Johnson in past years.

    If someone wants to bring in a late 20’s, motivated, Rison, Keyshawn or Plaxico I am all for it.

    I am just not in the mood for the mid 30’s, bitter his career is ending version.

  210. guest123 Says:

    I’m not asking you to personally like Plax or think him to be one of the “characters” that the new REGGIME is about. Just look at it from a Moneyball perspective, like a baseball GM. What does a GM do when he needs a closer when his old one goes down? Promote from within or beat the streets for a competent fill-in. The moneyball GM goes out in the market and finds that specialist. Maybe he dumps him after the season, but he fills an immediate need in the near term. Reggie should be thinking this way. We lack and need a big body RedZone WR threat and we’ll suffer disappointing drives if don’t fix this situation.

    There are a lot of really good dudes who don’t take football seriously enough that I don’t like either.

    Plax is a slacker with bad work ethics, that the risk/reward just isn’t juicy enough (Obviously, he has no team) at this stage in his career.

  220. RaiderDuck Says:

    Hagan’s signing also explains all those injury settlements we had yesterday. Injury settlements come off the cap immediately, and even with Hagan’s signing, we should still have $3 or so to work with.

    I saw two teams last night, with POWER O-line schemes, fail AT EVERY goalline to go and short yardage run play last night I saw.

    I counted 0 for 5 combined (including the hold at the end before the last first down) last night.

    Giants had it first and goal from the 1 after the INT, two running plays later they were at the 5.

    Remember that, all you anti-ZBS people. I read somewhere that the conversion rate for 3rd and 4th 1’s and 2’s was higher in passing attempts than rushing attempts last year.
    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Big Knapp fan myself. But remember, we were also watching two of the baddest D-Lines in the NFL flexing their muscles. Wouldn’t want to see us in a short-yardage situation against either one of those teams.

    Honestly, I was hoping that Criner was going to be that red zone receiving threat but I’m unconvinced. DHB will never be a red zone threat, so that leaves Streater. Or Hagan on a short week with limited reps. Or our non-receiving TE’s.

    Who is going to run the corner fade pattern and do the toe tap move on an arcing pass from Palmer on 3rd and 7 from the 7 yard line? Anyone? Streater or Hagan? Jeez… Why bother even trying to throw. Just pound DMAC and hope he doesn’t fumble. That’s going to be exasperating for Raider fans to watch.

    Burress isn’t a Reggie kind of guy, so I doubt you will ever see him in Silver and Black.

    My prediction: Hagan will see the field as WR on Monday, and will catch a clutch 3rd-down reception when it really matters

    I don’t know if that’s true. Remember, the VERY FIRST move Reggie made was to bring in a guy (Brandon Underwood) who had been arrested for hitting his wife and THEN accused of beating up a prostitute after a Packers fundraiser.

    Yeah, and nobody counted on our #1 and #3 receivers both being laid up week 1. Show me an offense anywhere in the NFL that wouldn’t be scrambling under those circumstances to sign someone.

    ***************************

    Doesn’t do us any good right now, but on the NFLN commercial they show a highlight of Jacoby doing EXACTLY THAT on a play.

    And he is a foot shorter than Plax.

    You just need good hands and footwork these days for that, height isn’t as important as most corners are 5′10-6 foot.

    Not interested in clutch third down receptions, or really anything between the 20’s. It’s nice and all. I’m only interested in efficiency of our red zone offense. Touchdowns baby! or else.

    With some fair odds, I will take wagers on Brandon Myers having more TD receptions than Plax this season.

    Brandon Underwood pleads no contest in prostitution case
    Posted by Michael David Smith on March 3, 2011, 7:26 AM EDT
    The strange case that began last year with two women accusing members of the Green Bay Packers of sexually assaulting them appears to have come to an end with one Packers player pleading no contest to soliciting prostitution.

    Packers defensive back Brandon Underwood has entered a no-contest plea, the chief of police in Lake Delton, Wisconsin, announced.

    The case first came to our attention in June, with a report that six members of the Packers were being interviewed over a sexual assault claim by two women. The women were initially claiming that one Packers player raped them while other Packers players held them down.

  269. SR Raider Says:

    As far as defensive players and FA’s, look no further than CB. All of those guys are new, and Reggie, DA, and Tarver will be swapping them out until a group of them gel.

    It’s going to be choppy and rough the first 6-8 weeks of the season at least. New coaches, new schemes, and injuries. My only expectation is that at least the defense will be better than last year.

  274. guest123 Says:

    JFB,

    I agree Jacoby (when healthy) is a baller. Does us no good now not having a scoring threat outside in the GL offense. Wish we had an answer to who steps into Jacoby’s role. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a tall guy. But Plax is someone I feel pretty confident can be the guy. Just one option.

    In other news taken form the AFC blog;

    San Diego, quarterback Philip Rivers: Rivers was hammered in November as the Raiders’ strong defensive line battered a broken San Diego offensive line. Monday night, Rivers will face Oakland without left tackle Jared Gaither. Instead, undrafted rookie Mike Harris will protect Rivers’ blind side. Rivers is in a tough spot. Rivers threw 20 interceptions last year and he threw four this preseason. He isn’t going to have a bunch of time in this game. He can’t afford to make poor throwing choices.

    Maybe you guys are right, that we need a better backup for Wiz…but, isn’t it his first time playing center? Should we give him more time to get the hang of it? Wasn’t he a Guard/Tackle at USC? He was picked by Pat Kirwin to be the next John Randal (next great UDFA).

  371. oakfoshow Says:

    because he had 19 catches in college and a good preseson.sounds a tad naive to me.

    I have had nothing but good with firstrowsports(dot)eu

    the good about them is that they will put up 1-8 diffrent links at the top of the page. If one link does not work for you, then click on the other link.

    Wort case scenario, you can listen to the radio play of the game.

    Moore looked good during media window at practice. Raiders fans can exhale, as Moore, DHB, Streater, Criner & Hagan pretty solid group Mon.

    Good riddance to Hue the Pimpin Magnificent. Why he waived Hagen in favor of a burned out Housh is no mystery: it was plain stupidity with some ego inflation mixed in.

    Thank the Lord that Mark and Reggie dumped that jackass.

    Not if you have other options. Moore practiced today, but he could re-pull that hammy in the first quarter Monday and not be seen again.

  408. RaiderDuck Says:

    Decisions such as dumping Hagan for Housh and benching DHB for no discernible reason are why Hue didn’t even get an HC interview last winter, and got (I think) ONE OC interview (for the Rams job, and they hired someone else).

  409. TxRaider210 Says:

    The Hagan move by Hubert had me livid last year, glad the kid is back in the right colors.

  410. Seymour Bush Says:

    New post losers

  411. RaidersOne Says:

    We desperately needed a big, possession, multi-purpose WR who can take and dish out punishment, and Hagan is that WR.

    With all these skinny-legged injury dogged WR’s and their aching “hammies”, Hagan will see a lot of action.

  412. branden.w Says:

    Any chance the Raiders go after Pablo Sandoval to solidify the D-Line against the run. Did you guys see that fat A$$ blow up the guy coming into 3rd base last night?
