Woods is overrated. Someone also stated we need 3 new starting Olineman, it’s more like 2. I have no problem with Miller, JPJ, and Glaze. In fact all 3 would look far better if we didn’t have the 2 weak links on the IOL. Before I get roasted on Glaze, I’m tracking he’s only average, but he should continue to get better. If he doesn’t than he’ll be replaced in good time.

Glaze is average at best and JPJ and Miller can't stay on the field. We need to invest on the oline

Agreed Oline and QB are our biggest needs

And I know for a fact that you never claimed Mack would be a superstar.

Then you'd be wrong.

And the "deleted" claim was debunked repeatedly.

Gaslighting.

It was one of the few threads I made on this site, so I remember it clearly, because it was right before my thread privileges were taken away for something I was right about.

Oh, let me guess, you're going to attempt to gaslight by stating I never ever made a thread on this site?

And calling a bad player bad and a good player good isn't a special power, goofy. If I watch college tape of a player and decide he's not talented based of obvious evidence, where the f[raiders_icon]ck do you draw the connection with being adapt at winning the lottery?

I swear you're a dumb ass Dr. Phil-ass boy.

Raiders will end up winning the next three and draft out of the top 10. If that is the case OT all the way. I don't want them selling the farm to draft a QB until the team is ready to help him succeed. Sellers or the kid from Arkansas will be available later rounds if we're out of the top 10.

Sellers isn't entering the draft, he's a sophomore and isn't having a good year; would be silly to enter when your stock is low, and his camp has already said they are there to get an education.

I would trade down if possible and snag more picks, go O-line and CB.

Increasingly clear this is another lost season so focus is once again on a rebuild and the draft.

Unless Mendoza or Simpson is within reach in the 1st then all our consideration should be on improving the trenches - I know it's the same old rhetoric but this is what the roster urgently needs.

The biggest question mark is do we trust this current coaching staff to oversee this or do we press reset again?

[CWood24]

I stated way before that draft that Khalil Mack would be a superstar. I even had a thread deleted on this site claiming as much.

I also stated correctly that Derek Carr would be our franchise QB when Matt Schuab was our starter.

Mostly everyone stated those things about Mack & Carr simply because it was clear to see

I called out Maxx Crosby as a great mid round guy who have measurable you could develop into being a starter it doesn’t make me a draft guru & to balance that i was 50/50 between him & Anthony Nelson as to who would be better as both tested great.

I have no faith in this shit show, I say move on, I know people will argue that Carroll needs time to get his players bla bla bla , We are just wasting time, by the time Carroll gets what he wants he'll be on the way out and the next guy will come in and turn the roster over.
The sad thing is who are you gonna get to come in and take this job ? nobody wants to come here to this circus.

Yep, both lines. We need to sign 2 monster interiors guys to go with JPJ, week after week, Meredith, was lunch for every defensive line we faced. IF that game wrecking DT is available in the first, you jump on it. Pair that with the DT depth we've built with Butler/Laulu. Both lines are a problem.

[RI RAIDER]

Pete is a sly one. He knew Raiders would suck ass. Take abuse for the year and then get paid staying home for 2 more years. Its the Raiders way. The question is who would want to take on this job? Its difficult to pluck coaches from college as many of them are making more $ than NFL HC's. I doubt a highly respected NFL coordinator would want to sabotage his career. Maybe AP's assistant coach from the high school team he coached is on the radar.

[Curay7680]

Lol...so these dingleberries are actually throwing a theory around that, we are eyeing a qb that can't even be drafted for what, 2-3 more years?

Renz is a dingleberry, Sanjit on the other hand is pretty reasonable and I enjoy watching him but that is just me.

[Attyla]

Nope it is a fact that you never called Mack a "superstar" before he was drafted, and you never created a thread that got deleted.


And your insults aside, you should give up while you are way behind. I will take the high road and not insult you further. But the fact that you resorted to calling names shows that you were triggered yet again. God I love when I win

[mranquales]

Has nothing to do with being a draft guru. They literally claimed that I've never been right about anything. This has been stated multiple times by multiple posters.

It also goes beyond drafting. I was in the minority about Minshew. The majority opinion was AOC was inferior to Minshew, reality showed the opposite.

I simply calling out the lying and gaslighting in an attempt to portray me a certain way.

I've been right way more than I've been wrong, and that fact for some reason bothers them. Has nothing to do with having special powers or anything like that.

My thread making privileges were taken away. This has been confirmed by the owner of this site. As a result, any thread I made (obviously) disappears-- or is no longer able to be seen by common posters.

My thread literally was named, "Superstar Mack". My memory is great and like I explained prior, I've only made a few threads, so I remember all of them.

Again, your weak attempt at semantics and gaslighting doesn't work on me.

So, you want to play semantics over the word "deleted"? Okay, bro.

[Attyla]

When you resort to lies and insults, it just makes you look bad.

You lied, you never created the thread and thus it was never deleted.
Period

[DrDUne]

The good news - we are primed to draft BPA. lol.
