@ Big Tex
Friend, if Raidresnation’s sarcasm went over your head, you can’t be very ‘Big”, Tex.
@Raidresnation
Did you accidentally misspell Raiders as “Raidres”, or is there some sracastic reasoning which went over MY head?

All you Raider faithful who are optimistic (and I sincerely applaud you for your unwavering support) get real, nothing positive is happening until Al takes a dirt nap.
Even if there is some undeveloped talent on the team the environment is so poisonous that it is near impossible for the team to be successful as long as Al is alive.

You claim Walker and Ellis are Hall of Famers and you accuse someone else of being dumb? I’m guessing that your middle name is “Ron” and your first name is “Mo”.

The only hope for my Raiders: Pick up a new owner in the Draft.
Hey Al, Irwindale called – they’re giving Yvonne the Key To The City. Weird, right?

So where’re all the TT bashers telling us what a fatal mistake it was for the Packers to unload Walker?

Same song…
Jamarcus, De angelo Hall, DHB, Robert Gallery, Micheal Huff, McFadden, Gibril Wilson( really impressed how he stuck it to Parcells the following year with another big signing bonus), Tommy Kelly, Richard Seymour (4 sacks!?), Randy Moss, Javon Walker,
Every big move Al Davis has made in the past 5 years has bit turned around and bit him. Seymour may be the exception, but 4 sacks is hardly the productivity of a Pro Bowler.
That laundry list of names has been paid out north of $200 million easily… not just fluff on the back end of the contract.. actual dollars in their pockets.
Honorable mention goes to draft picks like Fabian Washington (1st rd 2005: traded for a 4th rd), Mike mitchell (who had all draft experts saying who dat?).
All that being said. The Lions, Cheifs, Rams, Redskins, and Tampa Bay are worse off right now than the Raiders with regards to talent and direction. How is that possible?
I know what the crypt keeper is doing. What’s going over those organizations?

For those that think this was a salary dump, you’re wrong. Walker was guaranteed 2.6 million this year no matter what. No money was saved by dumping him, just a roster spot. Part of the re-worked worst contract ever.

Both cuts make sense. I liked Ellis, but he was having injury issues.

Gotta say I’m with raidertg on this one. I like everything they’ve done since the off-season started.

Walker, Hall-Pass, K. Harris, T. Kelly, dhBUST, JaLardass. Just a few of the many examples of just how Clueless and senile Al Davis really is.
Us Raider fan cant wait to see what reach and bust the crypt keeper drafts at pick 8 this year.

To bad they didn’t sign Fresno State’s David Carr, oops that would be the same problems, no quarterback and no receivers. When the let Fargas go, then things are not looking good.

Wow. Sometimes, Florio, you are worth the cost of membership to PFT. Fifteen catches, $21 million. That reminds me of the time i got payed 8.7 million for switching out some sewer pipes full of roots and … matter.

seriously if anyone was to pick him up it would be the Bengals
but really what can this guy do for a team that an undrafted or 7th round rookie can’t do?
he’s done

too bad though, walker was very very good that one year in green bay. he struggled out of the gun, but i think his 3rd year he exploded. then he got hurt. and if things couldn’t get worse, he eventually wound up on the raiders

I just dont get it. Is Al Davis purposely trying to hurt the team????
At the time, EVERYONE knew that Javon Walker’s career was done. Shannahan even said so in a presser the year before. I cant say it enough – EVERYONE knew that the guy was done. EVERYONE. Yet Davis goes and signs him to a crazy deal WITHOUT any kind of injury clause?????? And then when Walker tries to admit that he is done and wants to retire, Davis talks him out of it????
That whole story sounds ludicrous! But it actually happened. How can someone hear that story and not say that Davis is either trying to sabotage the team or he is completely senile beyond recognition.

I’d be curious to know if there is another team that has literally wasted more money on bad moves then the Raiders. They get 15 catches for $21,000,000 out of Walker. That equals $1,400,000 per catch. I wonder what the per catch amount is for last years #1 pick DHB. Also I wonder how much they are paying per TD for Russell, it would probably be more appropriate to see how much they are paying him per INT.

About time on Walker, and too bad Ellis has knee issues. He was a true pro who played well.
