@MrFerreira675@ItsGHardy I WANT" THE KRAKEN" IN OAKLAND NEXT YEAR.69 MIL IN CAP SPACE.LETS GET THIS BEAST ON OUR D.

Anyone catch the hardy retweet last night? I know I'm grasping at straws but, he's asking for Charles johnson type that we don't have. And it looks like he doesn't care where he gets it. I would suggest getting some value for him now while he's still got value.

It's gonna be an unpopular opinion, but if he demands even a little bit too much money, we should let him walk. In my opinion, Rivera made Hardy. He was a complete headcase, low motor player when he was drafted, and made no signs of improvement before Rivera got a hold of him. I think he would fail on the Raiders, big time, meanwhile we would have no problem filling the hole he leaves with Rivera and Eric Washington's next pass rusher.

Alexander might make this easy.

Ideally we could move him for a pick or two.

Was just thinking the same thing.

 

In the next few years we have to pay Cam and Luke.

 

I like the Kraken and all, but he is no Luke.

Let Hardy walk. Alexander is growing nicely. We have CJ, Star is starting to take shape and we have Dwan Edwards and Short for a pass rush. If we sign Hardy to a fat comtract it will be Hurney 2.0

Good DEs are something you can actually trade away and get something for....

We already failed that once, Hardy better not just walk....

    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.  
    • I have zero issues with this.
