NFL Discussion Thread - Hall of Fame Game: August 3rd

[jumpmanfromdabay]

The smart teams hold back at first.

Dude. Nobody wants to sign with the Raiders. I'm not trying to **** on your team but I'm being honest. Even the Browns are getting quality free agents to sign with them now. The Raiders are literally the last team outside of maybe the Jags that guys wanna sign with no matter how much money they're throwing out there.

Well obviously no one wants to go to Oakland. Everyone's already signing in Tampa.

Would have preferred Mitchell over Jenkins

Raiders sign G/OT Rodger Saffold (5 years, $42.5M; $21M guaranteed): MILLEN SOCHI TWO-TOILET EXPERIENCE Grade
Reggie McKenzie continues to destroy the Raiders. From the man who spent a first-round pick on a second-round corner prospect with a heart problem and refused to franchise anyone this offseason, McKenzie's latest deal might be the biggest joke of all.

I don't understand this. Why didn't McKenzie just franchise Jared Veldheer, who happens to be better than Rodger Saffold? And does McKenzie really think Saffold can play left tackle? Because he can't. He can't even stay healthy. Saffold has missed 17 games in the past three seasons, so why would he suddenly remain healthy on the West Coast?

I get that McKenzie has lots of money to spend this offseason, but this is the type of deal that will screw Oakland down the road. And yes, for those wondering, any "Millen" grade is an F. I just try to be creative with those. Besides, a "Millen Sochi two-toilet experience" properly describes this horrible signing.

Johnny.
Jump.

Are you guys happy that the Raiders let Jennings go and gave McFadden 4 million dollars to sit on the sidelines this year?

You really like that?

Ya a head scratcher to me

It would be funnier if Saffold was playing LT but it sounds like he's going to guard.
