2022 RAIDERS Thread: Welcome Davante Adams

[raider5]

Don’t hold your breath on Adams even hitting free agency. He’ll get hit with the franchise tag before he hits free agency.


Other options at WR in free agency and the draft. This draft group aint too bad at WR.

We should see how much it would cost to trade for Cooks. He could be like Ruggs for us without the MOSS’d ability.

We should go WR at 22. Hoping for Burks or London.

Allen Robinson ?

Allen Robinson ?

All things considered (availability, cost) probably my favorite WR1 target.

Would love to grab Robinson in FA and draft either the best WR available, or someone who fits a similar profile to Cooks, instead of trading for him outright.

Cooks himself would obviously be a welcome addition alone too.

Top potential free agents according to NFL.com:

Top 101 NFL free agents of 2022: Seven players still available after Dolphins add Trey Flowers

www.nfl.com

Some of these players won’t hit free agency, but if you’re looking at potential WR’s outside of Adams:

- Chris Godwin
- Allen Robinson
- OBJ
- Russell Gage
- Mike Williams
- JuJu

Chris/OBJ are a slight risk due to their recent injuries, and the rest I’m unsure if their “WR1” material, however any of these guys would be an upgrade to our current WR room. Even with 1 leg.

Olave with the 4.26 40

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

Thorton with the 4.21

 

[raider5]

Hella WR’s running 4.4’s and faster. Al Davis somewhere in the after life trying to find his way back for this draft class

Give me Mike Williams or Chris Godwin. I would take a flyer on DJ Chark jr.

Olave with the 4.26 40

Whoever hand timed this was probably smoking something good.

Official time got updated to 4.39.

 

[raider5]

No thanks.

imma just continue to be in denial until it happens.

mentally i just always expect the worse with this team. can never hope for anything good to happen to us anymore

 

[therefill]

Interesting

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

Did he buy Grudens house

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

 

[therefill]

Good. We need to lock him down long term.

6'4 4.26?
Sounds good on paper, but with WRs going smaller and more shifty in today's league, is being a tall DB a good thing or bad thing?

Great. Mahomes, Herbert, and now Russ
AFC West gonna be a biiiiitch.

 

[raider5]

I wouldn’t rule the Raiders out of anything. I actually really like this coaching staff thats been put together…

we’ll see how this all shakes out. Gonna be interesting AF to see if the Raiders are gonna have a knee-jerk reaction to this and will wanna make a splash move now.
