These guys

I'd love it if Mayer falls to us, but I am very much on board with Washington, especially with knowing how important protecting Young will be.  He's massive and almost a OT as is, I think he could be great to have as an in-line TE who can help with protection as well.

After those two I'd like BJ, wouldn't be against Downs either but would prefer either TE over him.

Agreed. I think both those Mayer and Washington have a reputation of loving to block as well as being big targets. I mean, if it were me making the pick and either of them were there, it would be 1 of them. I think edge is a bigger need though. A speedy wr would almost be a luxury, but I think we might go wr a bit later.

Yea I'd prefer Mayer, I was hoping we would trade back in at the end of the round there to get him.

But I'm figuring someone will take him before we come around, which is why I was talking about Washington there more.

Pass rusher may be a bigger need than TE, but I think high level pass catchers is a bigger need than pass rusher right now, need to get Young weapons, and there aren't any WRs I like as much as either TE at this point.  And I think you can find effective rookie pass rushers later in the draft easier than you can find impact TE's and I think both of those guys fit with what we need right now to both protect Young and give him more weapons.

Just don't take an OL, I know Fitterer has talked about that as a need, but we have a starting OL in place, really don't want an OL in the 2nd with our other needs.

Trade back few spots or pick Ojulari and call it a day. Don't forget Darius Brents, DJ turner, Darius Rush, Trenton Simpson jaylin Hyatt, Josh Down, Marvin Mims .....still available as well.

Agree on Ojulari but trade back if gone. Too many players can do all that.

      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.
