Mike Sims-Walker to be a UFA

JR is too cheap for hyphens.

lol I could see your point, but it would still be a nice pick up all the same. Our offense was horrible horrible being an understatement. It just seems like if there is talent out there willing to come here we should definately pull the trigger.

Didn't you guys get the memo following the press conference when Jerry Richardson clearly stated he would not negotiate any contracts until after a new CBA is in place.

This was the same press conference where he stated the team was moving in a younger direction and the team had many older players... John Fox didn't want to play younger players... etc...

The Jeremy Shockey signing was simply a move cleverly designed to let the smart people know he wasn't going to draft a TE at #1.

Nobody can sign UFAs now until a CBA is in place. He is a bit injury prone, but he is worthy of conisderation if Smith demands a trade, something I think he will do. It was not an easy decision for Jax I am sure. Money, contract stuff, injury history all played a factor. Maybe he prospers here. He would be our #1 WR if Smith is traded.

Its a huge waste if we gave up a 2nd and a 3rd on Armanti and then cut him the next season. He deserves one more shot with a staff that isn't a lame duck.

If we Draft Patrick Peterson at #1, which is a possibility but I doubt it, You can Kiss Armanti Goodbye. PP would play CB and return Punts\kickoffs. As far as a waste, last season was the definition of waste.

    • 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.
