The thing that bugs me is the team should have been doing a better job of assessing his injuries status before now. He shouldnt be showing up in a walking boot right before the beginning of training camp talking about a possible surgery. If he needs another surgery, get it done now, it should have been done months ago. It could be our players status slipped through the cracks due to changes in management, but damn they need to get it together.

Slow down and ask yourself what is fact and what is speculation - neither the Raiders nor Wilkins have made any concrete declarations about his condition.

[quote=Xramfan post_id=1290845]Most off seasons there is plenty to bitch about. This off season is a little boring (in a good way). But wow, it’s getting feisty in here these days.
Go Raiders[/quote]I'm too old to get to feisty.

So many people buried up Brady's asshole.
Proven commodity on the field? Absolutely.
Proven commodity in anything else in the history of his life? No.
They guy's done absolutely dick in any administrative position.
But hey, whatever gives you hope, I guess.

And then to bring up Pete wanting Geno? Well Pete was the Raiders 3rd choice after Johnson and Coen.

Davis said Johnson wasn't offered a contract, there was no talk of Coen other than some random report that surfaced a few days ago. Davis and/or Spytek did say they were interested in another hc that had already signed elsewhere. That would've been the time frame that Vrabel was hired in NE. 2nd choice e behind Vrabel? Maybe ...as for the Johnson & Coen rumors, I'll take the words straight from Davis and Spytek over some random rumor

[quote=Xramfan post_id=1290882]Until Darren Carr chimes in I’ve got nothing[/quote]It is pretty laughable to dismiss the opinions of multi champion coaches and arguably the greatest QB of all time over some guy who watches football on a TV. Even my hubris knows its limits
