If those 2 are my only choice I would have to lean Pierce as the team stands now. But honestly either would help our defense tremendously. 

Pierce doing so well might let Graham slip to us

If they want a bloke to move around and do different things take Walker. But if they want disruption off the edge I'd take Pearce

IMO you don’t spend pick 8 on a bloke you move around. Jumbo Jeremy Chinn vibes. Nah thanks.

Nah I'm talking about close to the line of scrimmage Swiss army knife. If you want player that can rush of the edge, blitz or drop into coverage from the LB position or spy the QB you take Walker. But if you want just a pure edge I'd take Pearce Jnr

Yea no, bad comp

The only comparison I’m making is that they are both players with no position. Chinn obvs stuck between safety and LB and Walker stuck between inside backer and 3-4 OLB. If I’m comping I’m saying Great Value Micah Parsons.

It’s underwhelming. Jalon Walker is being overrated, I feel. PFF has him as their #27th ranked player 

I think so. But in all honesty this entire class is being overrated. Don't get me wrong I'm not knocking his abilities as a player. We could surely use him on this team for sure. But I'm just not feeling it with Walker.

Exactly.  Walker is not a first rounder if all he does is edge rush.

      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.
