I see Jones going to Dallas .
I thought the Commanders were signing Ekeler?
oh i missed that , wow .
We can agree that improving the QB is a priority, but I can’t help but think about AP’s. He wants to win at the LOS. He has publicly said improving the oline is a priority. They just lost their RT to free agency. Barring taking a QB in rd 1, taking a dominant OT that may be 10 year starter makes so much sense.
This is my hope. I don’t want a db in the first. At all
I appreciate that JWB and with Hunt going to Carolina, Miami might have two of them
Would I like a better QB.....yes. But, for the situation the Raiders are in I am more than fine with the Minshew signing. I did not want to sign a mediocre QB for a large portion of the cap and be tied up for multiple years where you can't get rid of the guy without a huge dead cap hit and ruining your cap situation, like the Saints did with Carr and the Giants with Jones. The Raiders needed a decent vet QB that O'Connell and possibly a rookie can learn from while they find "the guy." And I think Minshew is better than a lot of people think. Signing a guy like Minshew allows them to sign Wilkins and other guys so the rest of the team is hopefully very good and hopefully they do find the right guy in the next year or two.
The Minshew signing signals two things:
What exactly is "weird pocket presence"?
we've lived through Derek Carr, we understand qb's that do that.
Sheesh, after reading and listening to all the Jacobs naysayers i was under the impression Zeus was all the Raiders really needed . I think not keeping him may come back and bite the team in the butt , just my opinion , but it was a financial business decision so thats that. Draft a guy i guess .
Jacobs is a loss but the reality is the easiest position to replace in this league is RB. Jacobs is elite and I hate to lose him but also remember that Zeus had a 4.3 average last year. Jacobs lifetime average is.... wait for it.... 4.3 and last year was down to 3.5. Zeus is not nearly as shifty as Jacobs but he is definetly faster... 4.4 speed vs 4.62
Sincere McCormick might be a name to watch during training camp.
They did this last year too. if I understand The new qb rules, they allow for the emergency qb to not count against the game day roster. It’s still a wasted roster spot IF they have a stud qb in place. Which they don’t currently have.
The raiders gave mariota 8.8M/year to be carr’s backup. And that was 3-4 years ago. Salary cap has gone up.
Agree on Amik. Does this signal the Raiders will target a CB in the first 3 RDs?
$10M might be better than the $0 the Raiders offered him? (I actually haven't a clue if the Raiders offered him any money)... also Campbell is a players coach. So???
Free agent running back Derrick Henry agreed to a two-year, $16 million deal with the Baltimore Ravens, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday. Henry's deal is worth up to $20 million, including $9 million fully guaranteed in the first year, the sources told Schefter.
I am more sad about losing him that Jacobs.

@Joe Bryant it’s getting serious in here.
Not the 1st..Not the 1st..Not the 1st..Not the 1st..
Amik was solid depth. They’re looking pretty thin back there at moment. Stephon Gilmore still looking for a job?
Hi,
We’re not not fired up. We are self deprecating in here by necessity.
''I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.''
Yes, he is still on the market. So is Kendall Fuller who is 4 years younger.
At need positions.... big ticket is basically QB and OT? Tyrone Smith?
QBs are gone. Linemen are scarce. I’m bummed they let big E walk
