Two big questions before draft day.

1.Who is our starting LBs, DEs, and DTs.

I don’t think we’ll really know even days before the draft, but we may have our own opinions on that.

2. Is Russell and Grad gonna be the only QBs “Competing”.

We don’t even know if Gradkowski will be competing even though I think we should hand him the starting job right now. I don’t think we’ll acquire another quarterback before the draft.

[…] and alot of u wanna give Russell another chance […]

Please, stand up and let yourself be known so we can throw tomatoes at you.

The front seven will be the same, unfortunately. Kelly, Warren and Ellis are all on the hook for too much cash to cut, and the “exclusive” franchise tag guarantees Seymore will be there too. Davis will match any offer for Morrison and Howard, those are his guys, they are not going anywhere.

I think Frye will work out another deal and be back as well. He played well when he had to, and will probably take league minimum (which helps considering we are broke as hell).

Now would be the time to cut those players that suck even Russell wouldn’t that save so much money?

That Cable is gonna find a reason to sit JaWalrus down. I don’t think there is any love there. Gradkowski and Frye will compete for the starting job—-Bruce will come out on top, he is a winner.
 The O-line isn’t that bad at all, consider how slow and clumsy JR is, and it comes clear how much work they really had to do.
 Routt is gonna be gone in a trade for picks, the draft isn’t very deep at the position, and the league is hurting everywhere for that position—-somebody will want him(at least as a nickel).

I’m already exhausted with the way things are going. To answer Question 1. LBs, DEs, and DTs. According to Adam Schefter, Warren is going to be cut which I hope. Also Morrison is probably going to be traded for a 3rd RD pick. If we’re lucky. the starting LBs would be ROLB-Howard, ILB-Rolando McClain (8th pick), ILB\LOLB hybrid-Brown, LOLB\DE hybrid-T. Scott. The D-line would look something like DE-Seymour, DT\NT-Kelly (ugh), DE-D. Bryant or M. Shaunessey. To answer question #2. Yes. It comes down to Russell & B. Grad but hopefully Al proves he’s as much a cheapskate as he is senile & cuts Russell when he refuses to restructure his contract. We can dream right?

Mocking The Draft says: This may be an unconventional pick, but Kirk Morrison misses far too many tackles to remain at inside linebacker. The Raiders may have more pressing needs – defensive line, offensive tackle, cornerback – but there isn’t a better player than McClain here.
