Possible 2011 Free Agents

PrintJust something to get my mind off of Manning torching our secondary because Marshall won't bring the heat.
QBS
Matt Lienart- Bust if you ask me. Someone will take him as a backup. Det, Ten, Min, or pretty much anyone who thinks he has potential. Me not being one of them.
Alex Smith or Troy Smith or maybe both- Anything can happen here. Maybe the one who gets the start stays or maybe they get a new coach and both leave. Overall both are better then Lienart but Me being an Ohio State fan think Troy is better and we should get him depending on how our QB situation ends up.
Carson Palmer and Donovan Mcnabb- Both have big contracts who aren't playing at big contract levels.
Matt Moore, Tarvaris Jackson, and Kerry Collins- All are in bad situations and anything could happen.
RBs
DeAngelo Williams, CAR- He's good and will want payed next year but CAR has two pretty good backs other then him. It will come down to money but with Carolina playing as bad as they are can they afford to lose any good players?
Cedric Benson, CIN- It's possible we see a whole new Bengal team next year with a whole new staff, QB, RB, and WR. I'm not that big of fan of Benson.
Joseph Addai, IND- If he wants to be the big man on campus he will have to leave. With a future HOF QB and having to share carries he will never be able to show what he can really do.
Ronnie Brown, MIA- Maybe only money would be an issue but he's a major part of the offense and I can't see him leaving.
Jerious Norwood, Tim Hightower, Ricky Williams, Mike Tolbert- Could all be on new teams.
WRs
Randy Moss, TEN- He can still play and will see if anyone offers him something better then TEN. I don't think he is a good fit there. Maybe he recieves an offer from the Raiders?
Vincent Jackson, SD- The man wants payed and the man plays. Simple as that. SD will trade him but don't count on him hitting the open market.
Sidney Rice, MIN- He's good. I have a feeling he won't be there next year but I could be wrong.
Malcom Floyd, SD- He can be a number one. Like his teammate he wants payed. SD is a sticky sitaution that could go anyways.
We have a need at WR and those guys are the only ones worth paying.
Braylon Edwards, Santana Moss, Steve Smith, Mike Sims-Walker- Edwards is the only one I can see playing for a different team.
Offensive Line
Jared Gaither- Slim Chances being back in Baltimore. I think he wants to play LT. I like him but the Raiders are devolping a LT right now. If him or Veldeer agreed to play RT then we would be buisness. If Hue is still here next season that would really help.
Matt Light, NE- You really never know with New England they could have a guy from a prison league playing great football for them. The only guy whos job is safe is Bradys.
Carl Nicks, NO- One of the best in the league. It's all about money. Do the Saints really want to drop another big check?
Logan Mankins, NE- Will be gone next season.
The Raiders really could use a guy at every position on the line especially the right side.
Defensive Line
Albert Haynesworth, WASH- He will be cut and the only ones I see signing him is the Raiders, Titans, Rams, and maybe Jacksonville. I say get him. Him and Seymour with Kelly spelling every guy on the line except on passing downs and it makes Kelly expendable even though he has had a great season. Instantly best DLine in the league.
Pat Williams, Mathias Kiwanuka, and Shaun Ellis- These are the only players on the line I can see leaving their teams.
Linebackers
David Harris, Shawne Merriman , Kirk Morrison, and Chad Greenway- Could all be on new teams next year?
DBs
Champ Bailey- He is 1st on my wish list this off-season. Him and Aso would be great.
Carlos Rogers, Eric Wright, Fabian Washington, Richard Marshall, Quintin Mikell, Darren Sharper, Eric Weddle, and Chinedum Ndukwe- Other then maybe Rogers all could be looking for a different team.
Raiders in contract years.
Stanford Routt, Hiram Eugene, Thomas Howard, Ricky Brown, Seymour, Super Mario, Satele, Johnnie Lee Higgins, Zach Miller, Bush, and Bruce Gradkowski.
We need a D coach or a new head coach with a defensive back round. If we added Big Al and Champ with a different defensive scheme I don't know how we lose.
Trading Block
All LBs except McClain. I don't know what were doing. Groves and Wimbly can't cover and I'm not sure if Wimbly can hit anyone besides the QB. I still wish Howard started. Now if we ran a 3-4 then I really can understand it but after this season I think we should stay a 4-3. As of right now I think Seymour and Kelly are playing the best football on the defense and that's what they are better in.
Safeties. I think we have 4 good safeties. Our system doesn't help though. I think we listen to offers for Branch and Huff and see what happens. I know the Colts are looking for safeties.
Michael Bush. I think he can be a feature back for a team and deserves it. I don't want to get rid of him or really any of the players we have now but he's more then a backup.
The off-season is a good ways away and I'm glad for that because we have no 1st round pick to make our mock drafts more fun. Remember to root for the Titans this weekend.
Have a Holly Jolly one guys.

No matter what happens this year, whether it be 7-9 or a SuperBowl win, this is my offseason wish list:
1. Albert Haynesworth
2. Champ Bailey
3. Braylon Edwards
4. Logan Mankins
Three vetrans that can all help very dramitcally. If we finish 8-8/9-7, which is all very possible, then I think we can get these guys here and make a deep playoff push. McFadden will be the star, and all of a sudden the Raiders are set to go deep.
And just since I’m sort of in offseason talk, what do you guys say to keeping John Henderson in for one more year? He and Albert played together in Tennessee, and could help lure in Albert.

One of the things I think about is had we taken Leinart at #7 instead of Huff that year...
We made some bad draft decisions during our ‘coach for a year’ days, especially the return of Art Shell and Kiffin. Leinart was never really in a system he could develop in, and when he had his shot he was looking at Kurt Warner’s ass. This thing in Az. with Whisenhunt looked like a personality conflict and a lot of drama. Leinart has the tools. When he worked out for Oakland Davis liked him a lot, yet he was talked out of it and they took Huff. David got his mojo back and took Russell the next draft. Not a sound choice as we all know but he wanted a QB.
Looking at the QB situation in Az. now, I think Whisenhunt was talking out of his ass and really doesnt know shit about QB development. He had Warner, and that made him look good, just like Phyliis makes that geek Norv Turner look good.
I think Leinart would have been a solid fit for Oakland back then and also maybe now as a back-up. This Captain Checkdown label he got in Az. was generated by the sports pundits out there who took the coaches side.
I dont know what the disposition of Frye or Grads will be in the off season. while Grads is a fan favorite and has a huge heart, he’s made of glass and Frye is expendable as well. I dont see Boller staying at all.
What’s your beef with Leinart? Attitude, work ethic, chekdown label?

We are not known for developing QB's either...
look at our track record for developing young QB’s… JaPurpleDrinkus, Marajuanavich, Rusty Hilger, Mark Wilson, need I go on. The point is that we’re far better off finding a free agent QB than trying to develop one and Leinart still needs a lot of development. Although with Al’s love of USC well known, I wouldn’t be surprised if Leinart came in to compete for a back up job.
JUST DOMINATE BABY !!!
Back-up definitely...no way did I even mention starter!!
Mark Wilson…man, he had a gun, but he shook like a dog shitting razor blades under a blitz…lol..

Our Rush D is still in the lower 1/3, But it's not so much the line as the LB and DBs. The long runs have skewed the stats
and those long runs go against the LBs and DBs. McLain and Goethel are okay in the middle but we need help on the outside with at least one LB who is good against both the rush and can defend the pass. Wimbley seems better against the pass and Groves better against the rush but neither is complete. The DB situation is a mixed bag too. Branch can tackle but struggles in coverage, Huff has problems tackling consistently, especially in the open field. Routt can’t tackle unless its set up for him and CJ looks good one play and horrible the next. Stevie has a nose for the ball but isn’t fast enough. Mitchell is doing well and I, in the minority, like Hiram Eugene overall.

Logan Mankins is almost guarnteed to be tagged so he's not going anywhere.
I’d prefer Matt Light anyway since he’s a veteran at a real need position. I think our guards are adequate. Also when talking about the drafting of Huff and possibly having a shot at Leinart, keep in mind Cutler went #11 that year.
Trust No One
Studies show stress can kill you, but don't worry about it.
I want Haynesworth
IF the skins give him away and pay him so we don’t have to. I’d love to see him rotated in and out of our d-line. Houston-Seymour-Kelly-Shaughnessy-Haynesworth. That shit would be nasty.
I don’t want Haynesworthless. I just think his attitude would be a problem and the weakness of the defense isn’t the middle of the D. It’s the edges where our 3-4 linebackers playing in a 4-3 aren’t fast enough to pursue the ball carriers. Kelly is finally playing like a great DT. He’s not perfect versus the run, but Seymour and McClain are right there in the middle for help. His pass rush though is on a truly elite level.
If we are going to bring in anyone big, it better be Darren Sharper or Champ Bailey. Bailey brings a consistent CB to play opposite Nnamdi. Sharper gives us a smart safety who can actually tackle. Play him at FS where our scheme just asks you to play deep zone and he’d fit perfectly. Even if only for a year or two. Both would help the pass D and the run D. Many forget how good of tackler Bailey is.
QB’s should not even be touched this offseason. Focus on getting 4-3 OLB, a great DB, and some O-Line depth/a new starting RT to move Walker to RG. The current line is playing great and they’re really starting to meld well together. Veldheer, Gallery/Loper, and Satele should all stay right where they are. I’ve been very impressed with Satele this year. He’s a big reason why McFadden has improved in terms of being able to run through the middle of a defense for 4-5 yards.
Wishlist:
-one of Sharper or Bailey
-a good but cheap #3 RB in case of injury
-Bush and Kelly to not get traded
-Bush, Ricky Brown, Seymour, M. Henderson, Zach Miller, and Stanford Routt to all be re-signed.
-Cable to stay head coach
-2nd round pick used on either a S, OLB, or RT/RG
Cable needs to stay. Under him we’ve improved, our players are happy, motivated, and playing inspired football, and we need to the consistency. He has us still in the playoff hunt and dominating our division rivals. Cable has earned every right to stay as the Head Coach.

Sharper would have been a great pickup 3 or 4 years ago.
He’s too old and doesn’t like to play the run.
Trust No One

You forget WR position
Larry, VJ, Flloyd or Rice please. I have said before and stick to my guns that Haynesworthless is not a good pick up. He is way too selfish another head case.

WR doesn’t need any big name flashy guys. I’d like a cheap veteran receiver. No sense spending money on a big name FA. Murphy and Ford should continue to develop and grow next year into some very quality receiver. For a team that is so absolutely run heavy as we are, we don’t really need to spend a ton on these big name FA guys. Especially since the lockdown is practically inevitable.
The Sunkist Kaiser, most epic thing since the Grizzly BLAAAAAAAIR! Relax, play, and drink Sunkist! Your Kaiser commands it.
The WR position doesn't need flashy, but it
does need a go to sure handed guy, a guy who is not gong to drop the ball, will fight for the ball, has that knack for getting open and is tall. ( and we can’t count on Chaz to be healthy )
The fact that we don’t have a guy like that is why we are so heavily run oriented and can be made one dimensional if our run game is stopped (see the Pitt game for proof) with the above mentioned receiver we would be a more balanced offense and could take down teams like Pitt and Mia who stuffed our run and dared us to throw.
Larry Fitz and VJ both fit that need with Larry being the first choice. His work ethic and style of play would be great for our young guys to emulate, and VJ, that dude just makes plays and his teammates seem to love him.
JUST DOMINATE BABY !!!
Don't overlook Malcom Floyd.
San Diego can only franchise one player, and will have to pay the other. If they don’t cough up, one will be available.

Floyd
I think he is doing good due to the system of the Chargers and the QB, Rivers, who is amazing. I’m sorry for saying that, but he is good. I makes that Tutu guy look good. I don’t think he is the answer here

We don’t need someone expensive. But I agree, a savvy vet with sure hands would really make this a better unit. Now should we get Larry or VJ I would not complain, but the chances they would come here or that we could spare such money are very slim.

center, if wisniewski is available we should take him
by RyanTheRaider on Dec 23, 2010 12:17 PM PST up reply actions
I'm in a minority here
But I don’t like Wis much. I want us to get a couple of maulers on the O-Line – Wisniewski is more of a finesse guy.
My O-Line dream draft is Gabe Carimi in the 2nd and Kris O’Dowd in the 4th.

Center to me is not an issue. As stated above I believe Satele has really improved his level of play, especially with run blocking. His pass protection is better but still lacking, though I think it more from poor RG support in Carlisle/Loper. Would love to see Langston Walker get put back into the RG slot. His 365 mammoth body in there would be vicious in run blocking and great support for Satele when dealing with 3-4 NT.
However, to get that we need a RT to move Walker back over to RG. This line’s pass protection issues are mainly due to Walker being too slow. A new RT pushes Walker to RG, thus supplanting Carlisle and fixing the RG.
Also, I’m not a big fan of Wisniewski. I’ve watched a lot of him and he’s never impressed me really.

If we could get a decent
C/G in the 4th or 5th round for rotation at both those positions, then just keeping it fresh might be the way to go.
Kevin Kowalski would fit that bill.
I like Alex Linnenkohl at C
from Oregon State. He’s a major reason Jacquizz Rodgers has been so dominant.

I want to see Bruce Campbell at RT myself.
However from what I can tell everyone else wants him at RG.

Yeah, I wanna see him
at RT as well. I think his downfield blocking could be amazing.
I think he might have problems at guard, and is a more natural OT.

not sure mankins will be a free a free agent next year. MAYBE matt light will, as vollmer can replace him.
Would love to have Floyd. He’s been very good. Even Nnamdi made good comments on him. Steve Smith and Mike Sims Walker would be great too. They are both better than you think.
Would love to have mankins here. not sure on Light, because Light has trouble with speedy edge rushers. Might be good as a Right Tackle.
Shaun Ellis please. That guy is a BEAST. Plus he can play 3-4 NT VERY VERY well. Get him if he is a free agent. That would be amazing.
Bailey and Rodgers would be great additions for us.

Light has trouble with speedy edge rushers. Might be good as a Right Tackle.
We’ve see how Langston Walker has fared in terms of being slow against speedy edge rushers, I’d rather we not have a do-over with Light (though I do think he’d be an improvement, I think it very minimal and at a much higher contract)
The Sunkist Kaiser, most epic thing since the Grizzly BLAAAAAAAIR! Relax, play, and drink Sunkist! Your Kaiser commands it.
Oh he'll be an improvement
but he might be inconsistent. There will be times when you just shake your head at him, and there will be times you’ll praise him.
Speed rushers that try and get around him just give him more problems than any other.

I know I’m just saying that we already have Langston at RT who has a lot of problems with speedy rushers. I guess I’m saying I’d like a more nimble and athletic tackle who can match up better with speed rushers

One Name Not Mentioned, Far As The WO Spot......
PLEXICO. Yeah He’s being Released from Jail, and to this I say so what !!! He did his time for shooting himself in the azz !!! He’ll be a big plus for the receiving corp, plus i don’t think he’ll he would cost us an atm to get him !! I too would luv to add Fat Albert to our defensive line. Bring in a cover LB, or better yet paly the one we got, Thomas Howard, or at least switch him to the SS position. He still has 4.4. speed, and can run with any TE, and all FBs coming out the backfield.
Plaxico might be this years Mike Vick
and by that I mean, coming back to league with a chip on his shoulder,something to prove and a renewed appreciation of his ability to be an NFL player and how lucky he really is.
He also would be more affordable than Larry or VJ. Count me in on getting Plaxico.
JUST DOMINATE BABY !!!
yeah
he should be in pretty good shape too, what else does he have to do lol
by RyanTheRaider on Dec 25, 2010 2:37 PM PST up reply actions
Plax would be a big plus.
Also, alot of players with “off field issues” have ended up working out well in Oakland. Seriously tho, somebody better buy him a holster.
Aso could be delt this year.
Seymour will be getting paid big plus with Manning, Brady, and maybe vick probably getting brand new monster contracts it’ll make Aso’s contract go up as well. I hope he doesn’t but he’ll be 30 next year and I think Al would pull the trigger if he got the deal he was looking for.
You may be right about Nnamdi's future. Seymour will be a Raider. We need a CB anyway so we need to prioritize CB

I would not be surprised to see Aso dealt. I’d like to see him traded though because we’d get a sweet pick for it (back in the first round sounds really nice right now), but I think teams would call our bluff and he’d end up a FA.

I’d actually be pretty good with that. I love Nnamdi don’t get me wrong (we talked on myspace once), but having the inconsistent corners in Routt and CJ opposite him get pounded all day is killing us. They’re good corners but they can’t take that kind of abuse. Trading an All-Star in order to make this an all-around more solid defense is worth it.
We could use that first for an actually consistent safety or a true 4-3 linebacker who can actually control the edge. Heck, even if we use that first on an O-Lineman (my preference), we still have our second for a safety, corner, or OLB.
Point is, Nnamdi isn’t really making an impact on the team since he never sees any action. No doubt he’s the best corner, but it’s pointless to have the best corner if he never makes big INT’s.
The Sunkist Kaiser, most epic thing since the Grizzly BLAAAAAAAIR! Relax, play, and drink Sunkist! Your Kaiser commands it.
Just Don't see the Logic !!!
Trade away the best shut down corner because he has NO PICKS !!!! So good QB’s refuse to throw his way, so he’s not making an impact. What more of an impact could you want, when basically that’s 1/2 of the defensive backfield you don’t worry about !!! Trade him, and then what ??? Say we get a number 1 & 3, plus a player. Is that player to be named, going to shut down top receivers like Nnamdi ?? Truefully, IMO we should’ve kept Woodson, and we even be discussing this. You just don’t trade away future Hall Of Famers, considering he just turning 30, and has yet to lose a step. We let Woodson get away, now you think Nnamdi’s not doing enough ??? Another 3 yr contract, with options for 2 more. This is his home, and he loves the bay area. It wouldn’t take as much as you might think to keep here, right where he belongs !!!
If we somehow pull off another A+ draft we'd save a lot, not having to upgrade through FA, and we could cover his fee
Otherwise, we need to look at the bigger picture.

Yes we do
The team should always be evaluating the talent and the future to some extent. To never see a player as a possible trade or to use them to make a step up would be very short sighted. Then you end up keeping a player too long. Look at the Green Bay debacle with Favre. I am surprised the Rodgers has turned out as good as he has seeing the pressure of what happened such. As of now without Nnamdi we have a shit secondary but we should be building the secondary up for his eventual departure either by trade or retirement.

It doesn’t matter if he’s shutting down the field when the other half gets the crap beat out of it. The other corners (Routt and CJ) are good when they aren’t pulverized by pass after pass after pass. Thus they allow plays. But put another good corner that would actually get passed against, and you’d see Routt and CJ play better. Hate to say it, but Nnamdi might be hurting this team.
In addition to better performance from our other corners, think of what a mid-to-high first plus a mid-to-high 3rd, plus a decent player could do for this team. The possibilities are endless and the end would give us a more well-rounded team with less holes and weaknesses.
Plus, it ain’t like the pass d is the problem in Oakland. The run D is still getting gashed and the O-Line still gets manhandled by the upper half of the league. Add into that, that we could use a decent veteran possession receiver. We could fill several of these gaps with what Nnamdi would bring over in a trade.
The Sunkist Kaiser, most epic thing since the Grizzly BLAAAAAAAIR! Relax, play, and drink Sunkist! Your Kaiser commands it.
This is a serious consideration. Nnamdi is probably our only 'sacred cow' so it's an act of courage, imo,
for a member of the Nation to take the initiative and present the argument for this radical move.

Probably not so radical
you really do have to think of the team as a whole. If we can get the right package for him and it will save the salary cap as well then it is a trifecta win. It also depends on this new CBA coming on how the salaries all pan out.

That trade would have to be like what Dallas received when they traded
Herschel Walker, for it to be worth it for us. Also Nnamdi’s huge contract might make it a harder trade to pull off. If there was a team that wanted him that bad I’d consider it. That is, if there is no lockout.
JUST DOMINATE BABY !!!
Nnamdi might be hurting the team?
Maybe some of our other best players are hurting the team as well.
Sounds like bronco logic, and I don’t think we should entertain that kind of absurdity.
I agree with papabegood on this one.
To say that taking away half the field is hurting the team is asinine. The bigger problem, is that Routt and CJ are not quite there. Both of these guys have shown flashes, and would be great nickel corners, but aren’t ready to be starters. CB is something that still could stand to be addressed. To trade Nnamdi would be foolish at this point.
i dont blame routt
he gets thrown at alot, and hes got one of the lowest completion against %. i blame it on us playing man every dam play, johnson just needs to go

How about Johnathan Joseph?
He may be franchise-tagged, but his contract expires after week 17.
B. Clifton Burke
I like him
He plays for the sorry-ass Bengals but he’s big time and was a serious prospect in college. Under the right system he could flourish. He’s a real ballhawk.
