I mean..some kids love college,but I’d say most of their dreams are to be in the NFL. He will be the first or second quarterback taken so there is really nothing but bad that can happen to his stock if he staysJeevo wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 4:34 pm Yeah, read an analysis of the pros and cons, money wise, of coming out vs staying for a top pick and it’s still better to enter the draft.

Just realized I screwed up...what I meant to convey was that though "Mendoza seems to be a great kid", I really don't know much about the character of the other QBs being discussed. (McMillan, Moore, et al)
Sorry, my bad for the confusion.

Strength of Schedule. Lowest SOS gets the better draft pick.

True, and the bad blood between the two teams still runs deep...I would call it a "rivalry", but that would be the wrong term, because the truth is that the Raiders are so bad that currently they are not truly a rival to the Chiefspfish57 wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 5:04 pm Fat Andy is an Evil Bastard...just saying, but I highly doubt he is worried about the Raiders with or without the first pick;)
"Evil Andy" will have the depleted Chiefs mentally ready to play against us...he proved that vs the Donks.

The only thing he might possibly be worried about is who we hire to replace PC's worthless ass lolraidersince63 wrote: Sun Dec 28, 2025 5:23 pm True, and the bad blood between the two teams still runs deep...I would call it a "rivalry", but that would be the wrong term, because the truth is that the Raiders are so bad that currently they are not truly a rival to the Chiefs

The good news: we have the inside track to the first pick! The bad news: the Raiders will be using the pick. In a demented sort of way, I'm almost looking forward to seeing how this clown show of an organization figures out a way to use the pick to re-draft Todd Marinovich or Jamarcus Russell.

A week full media bullshit nonsense if this will be Kelcey's last game.
Kelcey soaking up the...... all off season speculation if his is returning.
A dancing with the stars Kelcey/Swift win.
