2011 Oakland Raiders Free Agents: Trent Edwards is the Newest Raider
by Rich Langford on Jul 30, 2011 2:53 PM PDT
Email
PrintTrent Edwards is the first member of the Oakland Raiders free agents class that hasn't come via re-signing. Edwards is the former Bills starting quarterback, and beard grower extraordinaire. Edwards is just 27, and once was considered to have a promising future.
In just his second season he started 14 games and posted a QB rating of 85.4. His stats have steadily declined since then, and last year the Bills cut ties with Edwards and cut him.
The Raiders only had two QBs on their roster and now they have three. While I don't hold much hope of Edwards resurrecting his career he is a solid addition to battle for the No. 2 spot. While it would be nice to have a young QB that the Raiders are grooming for the future, it is a definite luxury for the present to have three QBs with starting experience on the roster, and given the recent news that the starting right tackle may be Khalif Barnes, the Raiders are going to need them.

Injury prone. But, playing for Buffalo, even Jim Otto would miss a few games at QB

I suspect this number two spot is anybodys now
I think some days Boller would beat out Edwards and vice-versa, so, not an overall bad acquisition.

beard grower extraordinaire
As a Bills fan, I do believe that you mean Ryan Fitzpatrick. For future reference, PLEASE try not to mix up Edwards and Fitz again…you have no clue how much more we like Fitz than that other guy :)
I may have scored a hundred points yesterday, but I scored a lot more off the court.
Fitz is the Harvard man with the 48 wonderlic inj 9 minutes. Edwards is the Stanford guy with a 34 wonderlic who beat Fitz out of a job

I would absolutely consider him.
That also might help Wiz adjust maybe a few pointers.
gotta sign walker back at this point
let carlisle go and replace him with walker. i actually wouldnt mind that line so much. only question i have is if veldheer can cut down on his penalties and if barksdale can hold up. from the sounds of practice today though he’s doin fine.

he had
35 punt returns at an average of 7.3 yrds a return.I like him too, but i dont want him returning kicks or punts,we have Ford,Jones,and Moore for that.
by RyanTheRaider on Jul 31, 2011 5:18 AM PDT up reply actions
i meant at reciever
and i dont think his stats show everything as a punt returner. the guy was pretty fearless when it came to snaggin them kicks. most times as soon as he caught it he was surrounded. i knows busted off some pretty good runs though
by frank7da2tank on Jul 31, 2011 10:09 AM PDT up reply actions

he was a tough son of a bitch man, and most guys his size are tentative with the ball. he’s not. kinda of reminds me of huggy bear that way. either way we’re destined to see a fair amount of him in preseason now that jacoby broke his hand

Edwards = nice pickup
I think RN might look back and see this as best move of 2011.
The guy has had his ups and downs, for sure. You guys seem to be in love with J Campbell, a guy I dont think anyone else would be excited about at all. (after Russel tho, I understand it) but I can see Edwards fitting in a Al Sauders Scheme very well.
thats another thing im not getting, havent seen that much excitement about Saunders.
I hate that u guys have him now, admittedly, he didnt do a great deal for Washington but he is easliy one of the best offensive minds in football, years ahead of poo Jackson.
More and endorsement of Hue's belief in him, and we think we can win with mediocrity at qb, for now
especially if we can complete the upgrade to this line, we expect Jason to improve that much more in his first semblance of stability, and some new weapons to add some explosiveness. We hope Jones can be our McCluster type guy. We were all licking our chops over Dex last year.

He will improve
but aside from Ford, who is a stud, the rest of your Wr corp is mediocre at best.
Glad u didnt get Gaither, at least not a healty gaither. If you had, those tackles would be scary. I like what Oakland is doing tho, Much improved. Hella run game, Kudos.
by Arrowheadone on Jul 30, 2011 5:36 PM PDT up reply actions
uh what?
Murphy is no where near mediocre. He is average, and can potentially be above average.
Chaz is great when healthy. He made good catches with JRuss at QB which is saying a lot.
the other are rookies, and miller is questionable. but those two above are good. not mediocre.

lol, yes he is.
I forgot about Chaz, he does make some nice catches, still think he and the rest are mediocre tho. Ford Aside.
But for the record, Mediocre = average. Not saying theyre terrible, just average. everyone else has NFL WR’s too. Even the Chiefs now have more than one. Yeah, I said it, before the recent WR additions we probablly had the worst WR corp in the league. (we signed a guy off the street and started him in our playoff game the same week, nuff said.)
Was actually trying to give a thumbs up on the Edwards signing tho. Im telling ya, I think this guy could really excell in a Saunders offense.
