[quote=raidersince63 post_id=1285508]Yup, as if we were a pariah or something. Won't mention their names, but they know who they were...and that's all that matters.[/quote]Personally I'm just happy they went BPA and didn't try to be the smartest guy in the room. We had decades of that with the Old Man, DHB anyone? Then add in basically squandering 5 1dt round picks in two drafts?

In the last three drafts we've picked players I've wanted: Mayer and Jeanty. Can't complain about Bowers (I had no idea we would pick him last year).

If we can get back into the 1st and nab Dart? IOL, CB and WR, not sure of the order but we do that and we could be looking at a very good draft.

[quote=haji81872 post_id=1285493]Nobody gives a shit when people called it. You want a sticker.? Most people said Graham Or Jeanty. Some wanted a tackle. Some wanted to trade back.

Don't hurt your arms with the back pats.[/quote]^^^Points and laughs.

[quote=mranquales post_id=1285446]YES! LET'S GO! RAIDERS CAN COMPETE RIGHT NOW!

NO OTHER PICK EXCEPT GRAHAM DOES ANYTHING FOR THE RAIDERS! GENIUS MOVE AND THE STAFF KNOWS WHAT THEY'RE DOING.[/quote]Genius move? I thought he fell into our lap?

Not gonna lie, after yesterday i was worried BIG TIME.
i totally got the O-Line shouts but it seemed Membou only rose up this Mocks and Big-Boards into Top-10 after the combine and i don‘t like those kind of players at all.

we got one of very few players (maybe 4?) that has no
question marks or are described as „raw“, „projects“
or mostly having „potential“ and thats the way it should be. just added bonus that it also fits a need.
also it leaves a lot of opportunities in round 2 (whoever falls unexpectly) - and we essentially aren‘t locked in at RB there.

like most on here i wanted Graham or Jeanty and i‘m ABSOLUTY STOKED! those kind
of sure-fire playmakers don‘t come along often and when they do - you should not pass on them

[quote=Hellbound post_id=1285603]You were lambasted because you said to take him at 6. Obviously a huge difference between a late first and 6th overall[/quote]Try again...I very clearly said that we should take him at #6 only if Jeanty had already been taken.

Sorry, but you'll have to wait awhile longer for your "gotcha" moment.
