That would be a home run so we won't be doing that.

Pick a MLB in the 1st. Go ahead and throw the 2nd ans 3rd round picks out and pencil in a warm body that won't contribute and follow it up with an injurey prone project in the 4th, a guy that contributes in the 5th as a backup or 3rd/4th year starter and the 6th round and 7th round guys will be cut or sent to the practice squad. Clasic Hurney draft.

I would rather have you as the GM.

Unfortunately this is the most realistic prediction I’ve seen yet.

So our first pick will be a lineman who won't likely make an immediate impact?

Ok.

Greg Little is a better option than a rookie Tackle.

You have no damn idea if Little or Thomas is better 

What we know right now is Little is an injury prone LT who had so-so performance his rookie season. And Thomas is a grade A certified bad ass LT from college.

The idea is you let the best man win the job. Then you put the other dude at LG and have a road grading o line 

If Little is good and stays healthy that only benefits you in terms of the quality and depth of your offensive line

I don't understand this thinking that Greg Little showed he's a great LT for the future based on what happened last season 

 

If anything you're taking a bigger risk by banking your future on an injury prone LT with dubious skills and not being proactive about trying to finally find Gross' successor. 

We all saw with Daryll Williams you can't just trot dudes out there after major injuries and expect them to be good

If anything Thomas might be much safer bet based on his college record

      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.
