Raiders might not franchise Zach Miller


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Per Jerry McDonald of the Oakland Tribune (reported in Rotworld).

Wednesday's Richard Seymour extension opened up this possibility, but McDonald is "not sure the Raiders are eager to pay (Miller) $7.3 million." They'd certainly have a bigger budget if they hadn't overpaid Seymour. McDonald suggests that Miller could wind up with a restricted free agent tender, costing less than half of the franchise number for tight ends.

While I'm pulling primarily for Barnidge, Miller is a no brainer as long as he's not looking to break the bank.

Rivera would certainly know him well from his AFC West days.

If the CBA leaves him a restricted free agent though, they could still put a high tender offer on him :(

i would easily take miller or marcedes lewis over anyone we have on the roster or any who would be available in the draft.

raiders would be making a mistake to not franchise him. he mightget taken up quick, esp. if they only use the 2nd round tender on him. probably will be the first and 3rd or just the first, though. that might be harder to justify.

    • All I heard was uber rides, weight trainers, and t shirts??? Maybe some meals too........ What a monster and he should be tossed in a rusty wood chipper!!!1!11!!!!!  
    • This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.
    • That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the favorites and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destroying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, not many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that defense took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.
