offense is gonna have serious issues, anyone not named steve smith cant get open, lefell is a pretty bad #2 if not one of the worst in the league. 

 

Wr corps - i remember when devid gettleman said you dont trade a dollar for 3 dimes, well you got a whole bunch of dimes here outside of 89   Grade D+

 

RB's - D-Will looks done, as much as i like him i think his time is about up in the NFL. Stewart not healthy.  Grade C

 

O-line is old and overated, terrible depth, terrible talent overall really, amani is aweful and so is byron bell. why u people think otherwise i will never understand. Grade D

 

QB - Cam gonna be Cam. Grade A

 

Outside of Cam, Smith, and Olsen there is a huge lack of talent on offense

 

 

Defense

 

D-line  Amazing with good depth, beside fua. Grade A+

 

LB core  -  top 3 in the league if not the best, amazing depth. Grade A+

 

Safeties - turrible. Grade F

 

corners - average players, but these guys know how to abuse routes from the pressure cause by our d line. Grade C

This is a bit of a kneejerk reaction to a series of preseason games.

 

There are concerns on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball, sure, but the team has not forgotten how to play offense in the offseason anymore than our entire coaching staff is suddenly not fit to coach a PeeWee team / has forgotten that there are plays other than running up the middle and non-PA passes in the playbook.

 

Things will return to median as the actual season starts.  Maybe the offense is slightly worse, or hampered by bad OL play.  Maybe that's offset by better D play, maybe it's not.  But an indictment like bottom 3rd in the league without a single regular season snap played is both premature and silly.

 

I don't expect us to be as good as we'd like to be but our offense certainly won't be as bad as you're predicting either.

I disagree... last year we where top 12 offense .... I believe we improved with the addition of FA and key players returning from injury. Cam progression alone improves the offense & the amount of turnovers the defense will generate will giving the O plenty of times to score............ I say we are top 5 offense & defense..... (11-5)

 

Key  Role players

OL- Wharton, Scott, Bell , Amini

WR- Ginn, Lafell, Hixon , Gettis

TE- Williams

RB- Tolbert, Barner

Lafell is NOT the worst #2 in the league that's just laughable.

DWill is not "done" his offensive line needs to do him better though.

Charles Godfrey is not turrible. The ? Is beside him though. Not an F in anyway.

Far too pessimistic a view of this team as a whole. Just like every year the perceived strength will not be as dominant as we think and our perceived weakness will not be as bad as we think.

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
