Week 1 News: Raiders release S Damarious Randall


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Oddly enough I like our starters atm at the position. Boston was extended, and Chinn was drafted, Burris, Robisnon (Drafted), and Jamerson offer quality depth. 

I'd like to see us add another experienced DB, Edge rusher, or more athleticism at LB - I know Chinn will be filling possibly in Nickel / Base sets with Boston, and Burris deep. However; that is just a razor thin LB group.

I am ready to see all of the CB options that become available. I don't think Norman fits this regime's blueprint, nor should it. Will there be a relatively young starting vet outside CB with athleticism and above 6'0" that gets released? 

A young athletic vet that's over 6'-0" tall sounds like the kind of player a team isn't going to release unless he really sucks.

They had him on a one year, 1.5 million dollar deal.

If they don't even want him for that small a contract, I'd file that under "things that make you go hmmm" :thinking:

And it was guaranteed, so they actually ate the $1.5m regardless... just wanted him off the team

Doesn't pass the sniff test. Eating 1.5 million just to get rid of him stinks. Good thing safety isn't a need right now.

Hell no to Norman. I hope Ron pulls a Ron and keeps him as one of 'his guys'. This regime has shown 0% interest in slow zone CBs and looks like they value speed. Not sure on man vs zone at this point but it would go against the moves they have made so far this year.

To be fair, irrespective of contract size, most of what that franchise has been doing merits that reaction.

    • Sure if you just blindly look at stats, you can pinpoint a couple areas that look similar. But come on man that's lazy analysis. Instead of throwing lower percentage throws, Dalton held onto the ball unconscionably long, leading to several of those sacks including that unthinkable one at the end of the first half, inflating his completion percentage. Bryce for all his flaws, does a pretty good job of escaping pressure and scrambling for 5 yards or throwing it away. Dalton's pocket presence was just so incredibly bad today, which led to both of his lost fumbles. If Bryce would just hold onto the ball and get sacked every 3rd play instead of throw it away or try a contested pass, his completion percentage would be 15 points higher than Dalton's today. And Bryce only had more yardage in 3 of 7 games? You mean when we played run heavy schemes in our wins, instead of Dalton being forced to throw all game cause we're getting blown out?  Look anyone is more than justified in arguing Bryce Young doesn't have the tools to lead this team to a super bowl. But he has been head and shoulders better this year than what Dalton showed today. That was just an abysmal perfomance.
    • 100% correct.    we also have a team that is completely incapable of responding to adversity. The first sign of trouble and the team just unravels. I think that says a lot about coaching more than anything. It can also be explained with the amount of youth we have playing key roles on offense and defense. 
    • He's not elevating anyone around him and will never be that kind of qb. He is what he is. He will always need a good team around him to play his best. His best is not a game changer but game manager. If you accept that then you will understand what the outlook is going forward.
