Eisen tries to bring up the raiders not being ready for a young qb in every single interview. They shut him down by saying how teams picking 1st are always bad teams.

So sick of these jealous clowns who say the Raiders aren't ready for a QB and Mendoza will fail here and blah blah blah. Then dont even get me started on the O line excuse. They act like you can't address your O line in one year.

Only an idiotic franchise would pass up on a franchise QB when one is staring you in the face. Not to mention, you have the perfect head coach incoming for Mendoza. I dont know about you guys but I'd much rather make the pick and have him potentially fail then not make the pick and watch him become a star.

I get the self serving notion that we are not ready. We are not currently. But free agency has yet to begin. If we hit a few out of the park for the line, we are absolutely ready. But we need to do that or Mendoza is going to struggle no fault of his. So the line needs to be a focus. We owe it to everyone to set the guy up for success.

Point is, it doesnt matter if we are ready or not. I don't care if we were considered the worst team in NFL history. You still take the QB.

I don't pay too much attention, but yeah if this is still going on it's all sour-grapes type of stuff.

You take the QB. Especially in our situation. We have the RB. We have the TE. We have receivers but it could be argued we don't have a true #1. We do need offensive linemen but we need QB also. This we can do at the same time and these talking heads know it or they're idiots. We've been a laughing stock in the league for years, if we were to pass up on Mendoza with the first pick it would solidify that for I don't know how many more years.

Kubiak is going to get his QB with the first pick so the talking heads can "get ovah it".

They should reply, Rich your team the Jets pick 2nd, would you take Mendoza at #2 overall on a shit show jets team?

It’s so f[raiders_icon]ck’n obvious why he’s bangin’ that drum. Never disliked Eisen before, but thank goodness Mark’s not running the show anymore. That shit Eisen’s been shoveling would work on Doofus. Probably why it bugs me so much. Got PTSD from Doofus f[raiders_icon]ckups.

I’m already concerned how much Jerruh Jones infects Doofus’ mind during the NFL Annual League Meeting end of March.

Coach K, Spytek, Tom, keep Doofus in the backseat please. 🙏

I think Rich doesn't believe what he is saying. Just needs something to talk about and click bait. Like a pundit stated, every team drafting that high looks for a franchise QB, and they all suck.

Eisen is a hack. His next intuitive thought will be his first.

At least it appears so on the surface. I'll believe it when the draft goes well, Mendoza is a Raider and we show signifcant progress throughout the year.
