With two 7th round picks coming up, the Raiders seem to be adding special teams players and if SOB has his way, they will add a running back, LeGarette Blount, with one of those picks.

With two picks to go, we need to look at defensive tackle, offensive guard, center, fullback and running back.

Question for Raymond about Jmarc
How much did he look like he weighed? 280?260?
I don't want another player or pick in return, all I want is.... a SHRUBBERY!
Haters are like todays republican party, they whine and complain without offering and idea or solution. It's once in a blue moon one comes a long and is worth listening to
250-260. But not fat at all.

AFC West is changing
Chiefs fan here, and I gotta admit the Raiders had the first really good draft in years. I think this division is going to change a lot in the coming years with OAK and KC emerging as front runners while SD slips into mediocrity and DEN falls into a state of chaos. Considering I live in L.A. and damn near every one of my good friends is Raiders fan, I’m looking forward toour rivalry meaning something for real in the years to come. Congrats guys.

Absolutely corect - KC has a great old tradition and with the Raiders dominated the AFC west for decades
KC has some intelligent leadership now and I look forward to our trouncing StD and Denver – teams I detest.

I think the AFC West is at its best when OAK and KC dominate. One of the best rivalries in football, and the best in the AFC without question.

The Niners had a fantastic draft, BUT, keep in mind, we landed:
Wimbley and Groves with our 3rd and 5th rounders and then added another 5th and 6th during the draft.

I think Pike is more ready to play than Clausen at this stage. It’s an odd choice though. Pike just seems more mature.

Joe McKnight, RB, LaDainian Tomlinson is almost out of it and so he works well with Greene.

...And as the roar of 80,000 red-clad great plains warriors fills the hallowed halls of Arrowhead, it will strike fear into the hearts of lesser men. For on that field, individual men toil for something greater than individual honors. They toil as brothers-in-arms, as 53 spirits striving towards a single purpose and driven by a single goal: The glory that comes with vanquishing your foes. They will achieve their birthright, they will be champions.
Fallen back to their rightful place
Even after their domination of the AFC West we still hold a huge lead over the W – L on them

They’ve had a pretty crappy draft compared to us, but Rivers can beat most teams by himself. I hope his o-line fails him altogether.

Think we should take OL w/our last pick
Ciron Black
Selvish Capers
Then go after a couple undrafted RBs:
LeGarrete Blount
Stafon Johnson
Ya, I’m a lifelong Trojan but Stafon Johnson is gonna be one helluva pro. He’s just a rock solid player w/work ethic & character to burn. Blount is good but we already have a player like him in Bush.
If the Titans don't try
to recreate smash and dash with Blount, he’ll be ours.
