Well I am surprised — didn’t see this coming. But not the end of the world. Just chalking it up to our ineptness and bad luck the last many years. Wilson inside? Sure he can play inside just not very well. Hendrickson would be great but Wilkins is a tackle and not a DE. Oh well - something will happen. Surprise me Raiders…

Yeah they saw something they really didnt like. I trust the people in charge to make the right decisions for the team.

Yeah, I think they saw a grifter who didn’t think he needed to get the advised surgery and could just play the Raiders instead of playing for the Raiders.

The only thing I trust after being a Raider fan for 60 years is results-wins in the plus column...nothing else! I stopped being a mindless Raiders can do no wrong Homer about 10 years ago. You might want to try it...reality makes you sleep better at night;)

Why does it feel like every time we try and make a big move in trades or FA.

It never works out?

Wilkins is the latest in the long line of disappointments.

It's like that with most teams and most big free agent signings. It's pretty rare when a huge free agent contract actually works out.
