Go to your inventory and you will see an “equip” option. Click that

The idea that we know something every other team in the league doesn't sounds like some Gruden-level Smartest Guy in the Room shit.

As far as Kubiak saying he looks great, that's fine. But is he gonna come up to the mic and say, "Well, I think we really f[raiders_icon]cked this one up. The guy runs like a pirate with a wooden leg."?

One thing is certain though; we will find out.
Yea I would be happy if he just survives camp without a injury at this point much less becoming rookie of the year. Our record with injured players hasn't been good or healthy for that matter lol I will wait to see what happens on the field just like the rest of the team before I slurp the koolaid-purple drank.

Testing mine

It works. The only jersey I own and wear is the assassin so I was glad to see that also

If a team realllllyyyy wanted McCoy and the Bills were obviously open to trading, you would think they could of gotten a better offer from a team further down. To me, nobody was taking him any time soon. My opinion.
The way I heard it, the Bills had a few teams trying to trade up with them… They (the Bills) knew who they wanted to pick, and knew there would have been a good chance they would lose their man (if they traded back). The bills called the Raiders and offered to swap picks for little compensation if the Raiders agree to not take their guy…

The Raiders made a shrewd and calculated move in the 4th freaking round. If it pans out we could have an impactful DB starting for many years...if it doesn't, well again, it was the 4th freaking round. And to those who claim "there were other players available", those players, just like McCoy, probably have the same chance of starting or failing. Most all draftees come with risks, regardless of what round they were drafted.

People like to point out how smart Spytek is but when a pick doesn't jibe with their own personal pick in that spot, their egos get bruised and they act like Spytek suddenly became inept.

That logic works both ways...whether Spytek is a competent GM remains to be seen only time will tell his first draft certainly wasn't some Genius level shit!

Who called him a genius?...not me. Are you saying that he's not a pretty sharp guy? What picks and acquisition do you have a problem with?...and why?

He either hits or misses time will tell...I don't think anyone's ego is bruised lol

I hope the kid works out. We all do. However, seeing people say that you take flyers on guys in the 4th round is... well, I disagree with that. There's good potential in the 4th, particularly for depth. We're thin at every level on both offense and defense. We may have taken care of the problem at RB, but otherwise, this team needs capable depth players, not a guy who hasn't played football in a year and a half.

I've never an I Told You So type of guy, but if I end up being right, I'm going to do some I Told You So's on this one.

Couldn't agree more. But God forbid you say you dont like the pick on here. I said it the second after he was picked that I didnt feel like we were the type of team that should be gambling on an injured player when there were absolutely guaranteed starters to be had for us there. Now, early reports on McCoy are good, I will admit that. But I need to see him on the field this year to say the risk was worth it.

Would you accept 4 years of high level play as a win? I would.

If that is so then how can you call someone a bust without them taking the field

Success or failure cannot not be predicted

Let’s call it what it was - a shot in the dark with upside if it works out & very little downside if it doesn’t

Success Rates by rounds
4th -12%
5th - 16%
6th - 9%
7th - 5%

Day 3 is exactly where you take gambles on injury risks, raw prospects with athletic upsides & guys with character concerns

You had a go at me for not liking Skylar Bell as a prospect but what makes him good & other prospects bad
