Oakland Raiders Roster Cuts: Ware and Brown Next to Fall
by Rich Langford on Sep 3, 2011 3:25 PM PDT
Email
PrintMore DBs falling by the wayside for the Raiders. Stevie Brown Jeremy Ware join the new list of ex-Raiders with Walter McFadden and Lito Sheppard. This means that Sterling Moore and Joey Porter are virtual locks to make the roster now.
Ware had shown flashes of good play last season and this preseason, but he has been very inconsistent and certainly can't be counted on. That said, I would much rather have him on this roster than Porter. I guess the Raiders see something in Porter that I have failed to catch. Whatever it is, they didn't see it last year.
Ware was kept over Porter in 2010.
Stevie Brown's cut was also a mild surprise. Brown has had a rough preseason, but he entered this preseason as the main backup free safety with plans to get lots of playing time as Huff slid to nickel corner. That role is now likely going to Jerome "missed tackle" Boyd. Chimdi Chekwa is also now likely in. He is still very much a work in progress at safety.

Last years crop did not improve
The seemingly undersized Brown was often looking slow and lost in assignments. Ware is the only surprise which just means CC will make it and UDFA Smoores is safe? Great story there!
yeah
brown didnt look good this year, and i think Ware was cut for Porters STs play.

Mr. Porter blocked a FG last night
had to have a big impact on him making the cut …so far.
He could be the gunner to replace Mr. Eugene.
Not too surprised at Stevie's departure. Like Boyd, wMcFadden and Porter, Brown is there but always late.
I am surprised that Porter made it, must be his intensity and Bodiford-like heart over skill or brains.

He was also disappointed in the Huff contract:
he thought that he would be the starting FS. I think that he played down to his emotions.

PRACTICE SQUAD...
Any of this guys deserving of a practice squad spot???
Brown doesnt mean Porter is in
Brown makes room for Boyd
You are overlooking the fact that Chekwa isnt a safety yet. Also, dont overlook Giordano, he has speed which Al loves.
Uh...Ware?

Uh... Chekwa and Moore
Not to mention all the FAs out there and the fact that Huff helps the corners. 4-5 corners. Routt, Johnson and DVD are three. Chekwa likely the fourth.
it looks like this right now, but i could change.
Routt,CJ,DVD,Moore,and Porter are the CBs on roster
Huff,Branch,Mitchell,Boyd and Check are the safeties on roster
5 corners 5 safeties

Did they cut Giordano?
I havent heard that. Giordano used to be considered as possibly the NFLs fastest man. He’s a veteran who has played a lot of special teams. He had a pick last night that was called back. He could easily make the team.
i forgot about Giordano
but he hasnt made much of an impact, and that pick was nothing, the only reason he got it was the CB held the receiver and Giordano looked like he was fielding a punt.

yeah
he didn’t show anything, even when he blitz’d it looked like he was slow

Slow he isnt
He might not make the team but slow is not a word that describes him.
Chekwa just started playing safety. Its hard to believe that he’ll go into the season as the backup FS when Huff has been playing corner in the nickel and dime packages. Especially with Mitchell hurt.
Yes
But either way it doesnt mean Porter and Moore are both in.
I pray we are bringing in outside help. Sterling > Porter but that takes little

Joselio Hansen would be nice
Akwasi Owusu-Ansah would be nice. Xavier Adibi might be the best available olb right now, but many more cuts to come.
Tavares Gooden might be nice also
Even though he was a 3-4 ILB, he’s probably better than Groves and I’m sure he could play OLB. The Ravens had him, so he must be a decent LB. Plus he went to the U.
Negotiations for Meriweather, let us assure ourselves, are underway to replace Boyd

Hue's "Bully Campaing" was doomed from the start. We have assembled excellent athletes of good character
who only need to be galvanized into a well orchestrated unit. A better “campaign” for a new Raider image should have been something like “Ruthless Raiders” or “The Team To Tough To Lose” or “Men in Black” but what we have now, with this whole bully theme just isn’t taking with this group. Our DL was already tough, thanks to Waffle and Seymour, but the rest of our defense is more or less a reactionary group that reflect its HC.

Tatupu, Sharper, Harris, Gooden
4 players on D the Raiders should definately take a look at.
A little tidbit from NFL
The excellent tight end for the Chiefs, Mowaki (sorry if I spelled it wrong) got injured in the game on Thursday and is on IR and will miss 6 games at least. Cassel was also hurt playing in the 4th quarter. For those who have complained about the Raiders not playing their best players in the pre season this is a good lesson to remember. God knows the team has looked awful, and the games have been almost unwatchable but in the final analysis the 0-4 record means nothing. If after 4 games into the season it looks this bad, then we have problems. I have seen nothing in these games to give me much confidence, I’ve hated the play calling, the pass defense, the pass rush, or for that matter the running attack but with the likes of Bennett, Cartwright and Rankin I did not expect much. The test starts a week from Monday.
But I also know
I haven’t seen this “team” yet fully healthy for a full game. I really think the re-mergence of the run attack of Mcfadden, with added balance by Bush and T Jones, the gelling of a non musical chairs rotating OL, and With Boss, Moore, DHB, Murphy Schilins and the like catching passes, this will be a high scoring offense….
that being said
it is obvious our defense will be our achilles heel. I mean Mcclain, seymour and the Front guys will be fine, but its our linebackers and secondary that worries me….huff and route and hopefully a healthy johnson will prove to make some plays in the regular season, but its those who will fill the other 3-4 spots depending on down/distance, package and defensive strategy, that have potential to get picked apart, just the way Brees, and every other quarterback we’ve seen this preseason did….

“No, just that it’s been totally opposite of what everyone thinks it is,” Jackson said. “He is someone that I can communicate with, bounce things off of and talk to, talk through things with. As I said before, this is his team. I respect that. But, boy, do we really have some great conversations about where we need to go and what we need to do to get better.”"

The Loper cut means Wiz is a solid starter there.
Not that it comes as a surprise, but does become more of a factual conclusion.
Well a few surprises... Also has Hue touched a few of you in a special way!!
I can careless about the media, what they think or say…And afterall the media outside of Oakland has not respected us in the slightest in years, and that is before we started all this losing…. To see players cut we thought would be here is a clear sign that things are going to change with the Raiders. Edwards, Williams, Stevie Moore, and the others so I will say this, none of these players were game changers. Not 1…So shaking things up does not hurt, all things considered. There was no real chemistry this preseason thus the changes come easy. Hue can handle the media any way he wants, this is the Raiders, and as I mention, we have NEVER been media darlings..ie 49ers…Hopefully, the Raiders plan will work and we will see positive results…Go Raiders!!!

Yeah, I didn't know that it happened on May 6th.
Goes to show what impact he had, to remember the cut date of the most atrocious player we had.
And if Groves is cut today I celebrate Trese de Sepombro forever too

Tres de Septiembre ain't gonna happen. But when that day comes when Groves is gone I will
make an effort to correctly spell the calendar day.

I think(or hope) Boyd will be cut once Mitchell is healthy
Porter will be in Hirams STs spot and groves is the new sam williams.

full 53 man roster
http://www.raiders.com/team/roster.html
I’m surprised Bennett made the team 5 rb’s on the roster, they must like him on special teams

"Just win baby. That’s what Al Davis says and that’s all I want to do. . . . I just want to be the best, and I just want to win." - Terrelle Pryor
Seth Wand is a bit of a surprise too

Agree, Wand and Davis IX only demonstrate how bad things are at LB

What I am woried about i with 5 Rb's
they will try to trade Bush
"Bad is Back, thanks be to the Antichrist" - George Atkinson
You may be right that. It is suspicious and he is our most desireable non-starter

So Raiders have roughly $7-8 million in cap space right now

I really hope this doesn't happen
But I can see Bush being traded for Lance Briggs
