Bradberry has no clue how to prevent receivers from running inside routes.

His guy is 5 feet from the sideline, and the moron is lining up outside of the receiver. That is a free 10+ yard slant route every down

Bradberry was never good. He’s always been a let them catch it and make the tackle all star.

That'd be a coaching decision. Nothing new, it's how our corners have played for the past few years. Nickel and LBs are supposed to handle from just outside the hashes and in.

This zone defense. Free agency should be DB's and WR's

Yep.  It's time to build those positions with proven NFL calibre talent.  Enough of counting on 2nd and 3rd round picks to carry us.  It takes too long to develop them.

Aikman touched on one of the other things that I really hate about our defensive scheme.

Rivera insists on that same left-right cornerback scheme that cost us the Cardinals playoff game. On the flipside, the Saints use Lattimore to shadow the opposing team's best receiver.

Even if we did have a shutdown corner on roster, Rivera wouldn't use him like one so it wouldn't even matter.

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
