It's sort of hard to believe that people think The Raiders' Dart would have been as good as the Giants' Dart.

One thing's for sure... the Raiders Dart would sure as f[raiders_icon]ck have been better than the Raiders Geno Smith. So what's your point? Are we not supposed to take shots on QBs in the draft?

Absolutely The Raiders should be picking QBs high in the draft. My only point is the hindsight mentally. I'll refrain though since it offends you.

I don't get offended buddy. Not my fault that your post made no sense.

Am I the only one who thinks that Dart will not end up as the QB solution for the Giants?

Disclaimer: I also thought Geno would be ours for a few years.

Just curious what you're basing that on. 3 games in and the dude looks confident, poised, accurate and aggressive. He is not playing like a rookie at all. I have a feeling if he were playing like this on the Raiders, we'd be happier than a pig in shit.

I just think that he's living on his legs and I'm not a fan of QBs who do. For every Lamar Jackson there's a dozen or more who can't sustain it. I do like him though and hope he is their guy.

I think he's living on his legs bc he has zero weapons at the moment. It's actually embarrassing who he's throwing to.

Yeah, they don't have the greatest group right now. As an aside, the Niners were without their top 4 pass catchers, and their starting QB, and had close to 350 through the air against a good team.

I hear you. They also have an offensive genius calling the shots. And Mac Jones is not a rookie.

Dart on the Raiders would be WAY better than Geno on the Raiders. It really doesn't need any explanation.

My choice for QB was Drake Maye. I knew there was no way we could get him. I wanted Dart. I'd still like to have taken him. Oh well.............. watch the guys you wanted do well for someone else...... the life of a Raiders fan. :grin:

Well I guess the Giants are proof that you just keep swinging, they drafted Daniel Jones and Saquon, Jones didn'i pan out and I actually think they hung with him a bit too long eventually keeping him over Saquon than lose Saquon.
So now they reload with Dart and Skatteboo. New beginning
