Routt is absolutely terrible. Im just praying that someone in this league didnt see how bad he actually played and gives us two picks for this guy. Al is bipolar on his managing decisions. He does something good, then something terrible! So far, I think its quite equal. If he doesnt resign my boy Thomas Howard. I may just give up all hope

I completely agree with you. I was sickened to hear about this tender. I hate Routt with a passion and he’s easily the biggest liability on our defense when he’s on the field. He’s a terrible cover corner and only a decent tavkler. He’s a penalty machine and is often the source of momentum for the opposing team.

I’m really scared that this tender means that Davis is going to trade Asomugha and then Routt will be a starter with Johnson.

Every offseason there are a handful of head scratchers will Davis at the helm and I’m suprised that it’s happening this early. A move like this really defaltes me as to where this team is heading this offseason already. Over $3M for a dime corner…lol…what a waste of money and a roster spot.

Al may be crazy, but he isn’t completely stupid. We aren’t getting the whole story at all. There is a method to the madness(madness being the operative term).

 Als biggest problem(IMO) is that he is stuck in the 80’s, an era where 1 or 2 bluechips can make a winning season. Unfortunately thats not the case in todays more sophisticated NFL. Everybody is good these days.

 Routt to the Redskins!! They just dropped Fred Smoot, so it looks juicy.

This move sucked almost all hope I had for this off season. It makes zero sense. I don’t get it, at all! The only time Routt looked like he belonged on a football field was when he was in zone defense. Which makes him horribly ill-suited for any team run by Davis.

I am sure there are some corners out there on NFL rosters that I would be worse than Routt, but I can’t think of them. I would have been disouraged if they had offered him a league minimum deal, let alone this one.

On second thought, this moves makes lots of sense—negative sense, anti sense, fuck you I like sucking sense, commitment to stupidity sense.

I don’t know what his career tally is but he has a lot of PI penalties on his resume.

The biggest red flag was when he refused to go into the game on special teams, defying the coaches (this was after Kiffin was fired, Cable took over). It doesn’t get much clearer than that Routt answers only to Al.

This is just one big bag of suck this off season. For every “ok” move we do atleast 2-3 head scratchers. I am going to sit in fron tof the TV watching draft day with a bottle and a gun.

This move will make sense when the NFL starts putting tracks around the fields again and having the teams run relays to determine who gets spotted 4 touchdowns prior to gametime as part of the new collective bargaining agreement.

See Al is smarter than everyone else…in fantasy land.

We re-signed Khalif Barnes. He was so helpful last year.

when he was on the field you could bet your house as to who the ball was going to be thrown to. Not that Stanford was able to do anything with that information.

that most people are surpirsed that Al Davis fucked up again. The guy lost his mind many years ago. He is not fooling any other Gm’s or pulling off some master scheme. The man in is a train wreck. If you cant see that you must think Jamarcus can play qb in the nfl.

Lets all hold hands bow our heads and pray for his death asap. That way the Raiders can stop being the laughing stock of the nfl….

if Al is in his office watching tapes of Routt in college with a stop watch in his hand. There’s no possible way he is watching the games. If he put a second round tender on him then a desperate team might have jumped. THis just guarantees us another year of bad nickel coverage.
