Actually other than using his preferred technique, the answer itself is accurate

And you dont see any of thier nonsense.

With prices only going up and Mayer set to take a larger role for the foreseeable future the Raiders are playing it smart for a change.

If he plays well over the next 6 weeks he may want to test the waters of f/a next season. Now he's locked up.

I'm not too worried about his knee. We don't have Ringling Bros. as a coaching staff anymore. This staff will play him when he's ready.

Unbelievable! Not that he isn't a good player but they already have Bowers on the roster. I guess he'll be getting a big contract too.

still on his rookie deal, so it is not an issue at this time

I have zero problems with locking up Mayer! If people want to bitch about $$$ look no further than Koonce lol

Oh man, I haven't heard that name in I don't know how long. It's an insult to Ringling Bros though. Their clowns were a lot more entertaining and the ringleader had a way better haircut than ours.

as long as the cap is not in jeopardy, who really cares. If it keeps us from signing a guy, ok, make a case, if not, let it ride.

I'm sure Chaisson could have been been convinced to stay for 12 mil & 11 mil this year and actually added some productivity to the D but instead it's been a waste of money that could of added a productive player.

But did other deals keep us from keeping Chaisson? I tend to doubt it, it was just bad business

Kubiak just spent the offseason installing his scheme with Mayer as a factor.
He's going to play in the scheme all season.
Letting him walk means starting over at TE2 next year with the work done this year wasted.

Now hes locked into the scheme for 4 years. This year and 3 added.

I half expect a statement next week that Bowers is not responding to treatment and being placed on IR eligible to return later in the season.

I honestly wish they would out of caution...hes the best player on this team and someone we need to protect for the future at all coats.
