CLOSED, NEW THREAD OPENED

[raider5]

I read somewhere that fan viewing of sports in general is down for all the leagues. I wonder how much that weighs on the NFL.

But the NFL makes big time money from CBS, NBC, ABC, etc...pulling from a top 10 market to the 46th market will not bode well for those stations and the potential of millions of viewers in the long term...

I mean I understand the $750M in free money is crazy, but it is a bit short sighted imo.

Then you add the Rams and the Chargers being a two hour ride away...you're killing the Chargers in amarket they just moved into and will have zero chance of success cause LA doesn't even really want them.

Seen people argue that the north east has tons of teams that are close in proximity to each other. But the Raiders run the southwest market. Can't compare that to anything in the north east.

Just doesn't make sense. Maybe I'm still looking at this from a bias perspective tho...

Bout to sell all my season tickets to opposing fan bases. Raiders gunna finance my 2017 & 2018 vacations

And yo even if I'm going to Vegas, the last thing I'd want to do in Vegas is go to a football game. That **** is draining af. especially in that Vegas weather. I'll be at the casino/pool/club all weekend before I go catch a raider game.

[laker4lifeman]

Adrian Peterson dad on Raiders: “What we personally like about the Raiders is the offensive line. They haven’t been playing around.’’

 

[kayzeezay]

Sign that team friendly deal AP

Otherwise kick rocks if you're looking for a payday

Are we still **** AP? 

 

[sohi 23]

Stance hasn't changed. If he wants to take a low guarantee, incentive based contract, bring him in.

If he wants more than Latavius tell him to **** off.

FA should be all about defense imo

 

[laker4lifeman]

Reggie is real quiet right now getting those power moves

RE: Adrian Peterson: 1. #Raiders. 2. #Seahawks 3. #Patriots. If it's #Raiders, it will be done quickly. I believe he'll seek $4-$6 mil per.

 

[kayzeezay]

Do it Reggie

 

[raider5]

As much as I would love AP signing...I'd be more happy with Tony Jefferson and Calais Campbell

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

I'm not making AP a priority. I absolutely feel it should be CC and TJ that we focus on first.

 

[sohi 23]

I honestly don't expect them to sign any big names. Just 2-3 small ones. More interested to see who resigns.

This, I would love these signings but CC is going to get paid and we have to make sure we have enough to re-sign DC and KM

 

[raider5]

The following Raiders are expected to sign elsewhere:

Matt McGloin (sorry AJPlatinum...wherever you may be)
Mychael Rivera
Malcom Smith

Connor Cook will be our #2, and I'm okay with that

 

[notoriousmj23]

I like Smith man. Dang.
Hopefully Raiders are up to something.

 

[sohi 23]

Caplan said don't expect raiders to make any free agency moves. They're focused on the draft.

As expected. We're trending upward and don't have a need for free agency anymore. I would expect Reggie to wait it out and get some players for less than market value.

Surprised they haven't cut Dan Williams.

 

[raider5]

Crazy to see AP has interest in Raiders but the Raiders are meh about it...

Don't even know how to feel about that 

 

[sohi 23]

Idk guys I just don't think AP is good anymore. I'd rather take Mixon at 24 but I know they won't.
