May the football godz look kindly down upon the feeble and inept.

Not sure if it was a mistake or not, but add another to the list of Mendoza nicknames, “The MANdoza”.

I keep hearing the jingle Co-stanza

[Attyla]

Man his scrambles can be ugly. He runs like Cocaine Bear, very frantic at times.

They’ve got a mid 1st from the colts I believe, I could see them using that on Simpson. Just don’t see who anyone is interested in moving up for this year.

It’s supply and demand and in a thin QB class he’s likely to go higher than he otherwise might.

He’s got skills and is solid on most areas of his game. That alone means he’s likely to garner interests. An now with Moore not coming out Simpson goes to QB2 on the board.

Just read an article about the Raiders trading our #1 pick to the Ravens for ...ahem, Lamar Jackson.


...I shit you not.

It’s the silly/stupid season and “writers” are chasing clicks.

[Willmark]

For those who care I saw on Reddit Carrbage on his podcast says we should not draft Mendoza. He says team isn’t ready for a qb.

I saw it. The commentary is more than a tad self serving.

The questions I would pose to him what was the Raiders record the year prior to him? Was the team not ready then?

[Be_Easy_25]

Sour grapes.
And….


No.

[Attyla]

Well, Derek is an expert on QBs the Raiders should not draft, after all.

Yea stupid stuff. We don't even have our coach yet. Do we seriously believe a new head coach would want to take Lamar over a young mobile and accurate QB?

Now is a good time to update block/mute/ignore lists. Whoever suggests we shouldn't take Mendoza, trade down or trade for a vet, needs to be blocked from existence.

[Corleone]

I said it before we even got the pick, but after Raiders get the #1 pick, expect the experts to suddenly flip on Mendoza and urge us to take the lesser player. We're seeing it unfold in live time.

In this case, just follow the money. Draftkings currently has Mendoza -425 to go #1, Moore is +330. For those unfamiliar with betting, that means if you bet $100 on Mendoza right now, you'd win 23 bucks, if you bet $100 on Moore, you'd win $330, that should give you a glimpse into what the oddsmakers actually think will happen. @Attyla I'll take 10k on Mendoza if you're taking those bets!

Update on these odds. Draftkings now has Mendoza at -8000 to go #1 overall. Which means if you bet $100, you'd win $1.25.

[Rabidraider]

That Carr podcast was stupid as f[raiders_icon]ck. We will have over 100 million in cap space and can address the oline. And other draft picks as well.

Unless the Jets want to offer 5 #1 picks...

Oh I know it's total BS and click bait, but I just find it comical that what lengths people go to get people to click on something...hell, anything.

I am taking bets on the first overall pick off the books for sure now that almost none of the QBs are coming out. I might take best on the second overall pick but even that is sketchy right now. Simpson, I would be willing to bet is going to move up the boards on "experts" predictions

[chucker]

I can't bet $100 on Mendoza going first anymore? f[raiders_icon]ck, I guess that's the way my f[raiders_icon]cking day is gonna go. What's next? The f[raiders_icon]cking Broncos winning?
