The greatest corner tandem in the NFL-on the Raiders??

As much as I would like to see it I just don’t see it happening. The salary cap situation is just not going to allow it. Yes yes yes I know there is no cap in the year coming……..HOWEVER after this year THERE WILL BE A CAP. Having those 2 at the corners will definitely make our defense better BUT the team as whole does not have it to win this year and thus allowing for some dismantling of the team to make room for the cap afterward. It is way too much commitment on the Raiders and then leaving nothing in the coffers to contribute to building other parts of the team. I don’t even want it just for the fact it will deny other weaknesses getting addressed due to financial constraints.

Simply put, this trade is just a ripoff for the Jets. You don’t trade a top 15 player for a decent cornerback, an okay safety and an aging defensive lineman.

Even if Al wanted to make a move for a premier corner alongside Nmamdi he first of all wouldn’t have signed Routt to that F’d up tender in the first place and he would have made some sort of move by now. You never heard anything about Duanta Robinson or trading for someone who would realistically be available. Also I doubt he waited until the 5th round to get Walt McFadden assuming he was the diamond in the rough when there was so much good depth at the position available in the first 2 rounds. I agree we need to get someone soon if we are going to be running the same man to man dinosaur defense of the past 40+ years but Revis will not be a Raider. When all is said and done he unfortunately will report and will end up signing an extension which may not be higher but comparable to Nmamdi’s.

come on now the jets most consistant/best player will not be traded away and we dont even have anything to trade no first rd pick, no pro bowlers(i say that bc were not trading away shane or aso) we have no one the jets need, they have money they will pay revis

he’s a ME guy he thinks he’s the greatest when he aint Nnamdi way better than him

There’s no way they do it. Revis is staying in New York. ’Nuff said.

warren sapp, randy moss, deangelo hall all sucked on the raiders when they were supposed to be great players. i say fuck it, it will just be the same thing again
just keep the players we have now and let them become a team

Def not Seymour ‘cuz contract’s too fat, and let’s face it, the NYJ’s don’t wanna pay shit. Revis wants Nnamdi’s plus fitty cent. That ain’t gonna happen.

I think everyone above nailed it when it would ruin something good we have going. Keep the big egos and dissatisfied guys out of the locker room. We suddenly find ourselves in the enviable position of having almost no one not ready to go to camp and play hard.

Would love to upgrade the corner position, but want to see CJ get better with improved front seven play, and see lil Walt usurp him for his job with some mad ball skills when we have a dominant pass rush and improved run D.

The only position to discuss right now is O tackle.

We’re missing a key ingredient: that home-run guy opposite Nnamdi. This situation surfaced with Woodson, now it’s back. We have a guy to shut down half the field but not the gambler on the other side willing to take the chances to get the picks that create more possessions for our improved but still weak offense. And we need those possessions with Campbell learning the playbook and the receiving corps still young. We have a difficult task this season and we might not have the record to match the talent (I can’t endorse a record of anything above 8-8 realistically) but progress will be shown.

That would be one of the greatest cornerback tandems ever!! But it’s not happening. No way the Jets are letting go of the face of their defense, NO WAY!!!
