With a TD to INT stat of 35 to 30 over the past two years, Mr. Palmer should be giving money back to Mark Davis.

The Raiders were on one hell of a playoff run when Jason Campbell went down. Amazing how one play changed the course of a team and it’s staff.

——–

Can’t Stand Campbell talk of success.

That year went down when McFadden went down, CP3 never played with him and McFadden was leading the league in rushing and 3rd in all-purpose yards, MVP start to year … Thats why Cambell looked good.

If Campbell were even decent he wouldn’t have had only one job offer to be a back-up in chicago.

I wonder who the Bengals will take with the Raiders’ 2nd round draft pick this year.

_______________________________

Doesn’t matter who the bungles take in the draft. How many playoff games have they won in the past decade? They couldn’t build a team even if they had every Oakland draft pick for the next five years.

You do? Do you also wonder what Seattle will do with the Raiders’ 5th round pick? Don’t you wish the Chargers had those selections? They could use them on one of the many offensive linemen they desperately need. They have to do something to help out Philip besides dropping big money on tackles that won’t play and receivers that can’t catch. Rivers is owed 41 million over the next 3 years, and he might not live to collect it if they don’t get him some protection. We are all aware of your Raider obsession, so tune in on April 26th to find out what the Bengals do with that Oakland draft pick. Choo choo!

This regime has a lot of ground to make up, but so far they seem to being doing the right things given the circumstances. This draft will be very interesting to watch and see how RM and his staff conduct themselves.

And for illiterates like ‘bengalstillsuck’…..are your predictions of the future based on current moves or the fact you’re (that means ‘you are’) not astute or creative enough to look past the end of the Al Davis years?

Reggie has some decisions to make, but for all the tommy kelly haters out there, i encourage you to watch the games again after Seymour was injured…..he played pretty darn well. If we end up drafting a DT with the 3rd pick maybe not, but I think we need him back.

For the past decade this franchise has been the laughing stock of the NFL their fans are flat out idiots their FO has no clue of what their doing they will suck for another decade.

Before you get too excited calling other fans idiots you might want to work on your grammar. Mix in some punctuation. Learn the difference between their and they’re. Come on, Skippy. You can do it.

Draft well, sign depth guys, cut cap dead weight and find out what you have in a real offense.

2014 = 3 Drafts, 1 full free agency swing and 2 full seasons of learning what you have on the roster…that should include seeing what you have in Pryor.

The issue is how much. He knows if he’s out right cut then he’s entering the last leg of his career as a stopgap type of QB on crap teams. As bad as the Raiders are and have been, it’s his last chance to string together a few years for a team and hope to build something.

1-2 more years cleaning up the Davis cap mess and this will be the start of a competitive team again.

Time to drop Tommy and Richard from the D as well.

So what i want to know is whats Palmer decided? That could make the difference in either the draft, free agency, waivers or even the guitine for Palmer. There’s no way were getting anything for him so tak..e your cut or get stepping. I like Palmer under a power scheme,butl lets face it, he is not the face of the franchise. We can get another year or two out of him but eventually we are going to need some younger talent and more depth. I would not say this is our main concern right now uness he gets cut, then we will be looking at possibly GenoSmith, flynn, Alex Smith or whoever? Cutting Palmer could certainly put us in a vicariously tough position.
