Who's your choice for GM?


Mr. Scot

Peters and Dodds are both young and have very successful resumés. They seem to be fairly different in the personality department though.

Peters comes off like the boss who'll frame his criticism in more constructive terms while Dodds seems more like the type to say "listen up and I'm gonna explain to you why you're bad at your job".

I want an aggressive gm, someone that will tail gate you if your driving slow in the left lane  that type of gm

That's probably more Ed Dodds than Adam Peters.

I'd take either one though. They're both very good at their jobs, just different.

Kinda find myself wondering between Peters and Dodds, which one would David Tepper prefer?

Dodds has a "work" personality a lot like Tepper did in the financial world. It's an all go, no quit, balls to the wall, "not good enough until it's the best" sort of mentality. And he expects everyone working for him to be the same way.

Peters is more like the quiet, analytical guy, the one who looks and sounds like he knows everything about everything and can answer any question you ask like an expert. He's also got some background working with analytics in San Francisco, something Tepper would appreciate.

Granted, the choice could very easily be one of the other candidates, but I genuinely feel like one of these two guys would be the best for the job.

    • 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. 
    • 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.
    • 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.
