draft one of the big DT's. we'll be better off in the long run because it would shore up our defensive middle for a decade.

we can't keep two starting RB's for to much longer. eventually we'll be forced to do something with one of them. get max value now for DeWill now rather than in two years or after an injury.

---------------

does anyone know how to change my username? now that my wishes have been granted by the front office, i'm ready to move on.

It would be tempting but we don't have the money to hand to a pick that high. We might be able to get someone good but we would have to pay him like a superstar and not only that but we would have to give up a real superstar to get it done.

Hmm, I know their are probably many threads about this already..but..I think it would be a hard decision..

Obviously we'd take Suh..whom is better of the two lineman.

J-Stew does seem like hew could carry the load..

But, I'd hate to see D-Will go.

:'[

I don't know what I'd do..

But I don't think this scenario would ever even happen.

So, I won't have to worry about it.

Geez, I'm rambling and rambling and rambling on here. xD

Someone wants to have a red rep meter.

why would that give me neg reps? it's a legit proposal. you may not agree with it but not agreeing with a suggestion shouldn't warrant neg reps.

what i suggeseted is a considerable option. i hate to see us wait too long and lose mega value with one of our RB's and if we could snag a stud DT rather than a 2nd or 3rd round one, i feel there would be more upside in suh's future here than trying to cling to two starting RB's.

a lot of people are saying we can't keep both backs, but why not? it's really up to deangelo and jonathan. they seem happy with the team now. if they want to go somewhere else to get paid more then that's their prerogative, but it's not certain that will happen. they really seem to be in to their roles at the moment.

"now", "at the moment"

sure, now and at the moment. what i am talking about is over the next 4-8 years (the time we'd greatly benefit from a stud DT)

Hey would any of you trade dwill and our second for Calvin Johnson? Hope I don't get neg repped for this suggestion.

no, i wouldn't, but don't worry, i won't neg rep you!

i like him, but believe DeWill is a better running back than johnson is a receiver. so the trade straight up is a move down for us so adding our 2nd.... yikes.

      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.
