The Oakland Raiders to me.



At the forefront of my brain is a little area dedicated solely to the Oakland Raiders. I read post after post after post about JaMarcus Russell. I think we can all agree, he sucks. Everything about him is truly disgusting. Waste of your time. Of course he didn't show up to the voluntary workouts. This is nothing new. He reeks of stupidity. Leave him be. Bruce Gradkowski here we come.

Adjusting to free agency. Typically, I would speculate that Al Davis would go on a spending spree. But I think the old man has finally learned his lesson. If I had it my way, I would have been up Julius Peppers' asshole. We need a good pass rusher/run stopper and just an all around brute. That's him. Fork over the cash. Investments pay off if done correctly. Tough luck. We will make it up in the draft. Hopefully.

Spend on a wideout receiver. Why not? Some stability wont kill us. Terrell Owens? Ehh.. RFA Brandon Marshall. Yes. I understand there is a first round tender on him, but the Denver Broncos won't match anything. I think they can't wait to be rid of him. It wouldn't hurt to try. Why let a play-maker like that go to the Seattle Seahawks?  He is a proven ball catcher.

Letting go is hard to do. Justin Fargas. I miss him already. I am definitely going to miss his tenacity, his ferocious runs. Our three-headed dragon has just been decapitated. It's o.k, utilization of Michael Bush and Darren McFadden is key. Especially McFadden. The guy has all the potential in the world. Let's capitalize.

Departing ways with Greg Ellis. I liked him. I liked his play. Getting hurt didn't help his chances. I'll miss him.

With the way things are going inside of the Raiders organization, this draft better be awesome. That or start shelling out the cheddar Al. We have potential. This year, I want our defense to rips the heads off of opposing offenses, and offense to rip apart opposing defenses. Let's go Raiders. Die-hard until I die.

Just to let you know...

we don’t always typically write posts on JaMarcus. The new people come on here and express what they think on him.

As for free agency… I think Marshall will be trouble here, and TO will be even more trouble. I say draft our key guys, which we’ll spend less money than what we will in free agency, and we have been getting better slowly each year. Think it’s time to have a 7-9 season. or better.

Nice post, Raider X. This draft is make or break for us.

No more pussyfooting around; this is the real deal. I’ve been screaming this for years now. It’s time again:

This year, I want our defense to rips the heads off of opposing offenses, and offense to rip apart opposing defenses

GO RAIDERS!

i was saying something similar before:

No to Julius, and Brandon Marshall

Im still undecided on TO. Leanig more and more towards saying no, Just because I think our Young WR’s and Bruce are staring to form a bond, and a dramatic WR wouldnt help

In Bruce We Trust

I'm with you, Remix. Address all your needs in the draft, for a change, with the best players available to us where they fall.

No more receivers

Louis Murphy should start opposite Chaz Shilens. Spell them with Higgins and Stone Hands Bey. Also consider that our best receiving option is a tight end. Leave free agency alone. The biggest spark to this team would be cutting Jamarcus AKA Fatboy McCoy. Draft O and D line. Maybe a linebacker that can hit and hit hard.

that includes TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we should stay on what we have and dont buy into TO at all. cut fat boy j. ryan leaf russell and start with brad and charlie at qb. the d line is 1st to stop the bleeding. then o line and then a lb.
