This message is hidden because Millennial_Messiah is on your ignore list.
and fyi derp there was already a vegas raiders thread for last season too, so there was no need to bump the oakland thread
i dont even know what to expect or realistically hope for from this team. they couldnt be more lukewarm, which is so frustrating to watch. hopefully the young talent actually develops for once, havent really seen that from the raiders in who knows how long
Or they could just dominate the NFL by throwing to Darren Waller all game. He's literally unstoppable, like Lebron James against point guards.
they're counting on internal improvement way too much.
on offense:
Replacing Agholor with John Brown was a good move. Mostly a lateral move, but if Brown is healthy, he's better than Agholor. Otherwise they're banking on Ruggs/Edwards emerging.
They're hoping Incognito bounces back to 2019 form despite being old and coming off injury.
They're hoping former UDFA Andre James has become a viable option to replace Rodney Hudson
They're hoping John Simpson emerges as a starter to fill Gabe Jackson's shoes
They're hoping Alex Leatherwoood can step in day 1 and start at RT (to be fair, Trent Brown barely played, so he's not replacing much)
on defense
they actually did make some tangible changes... signing Ngakoue was huge, drafting Moehrig at FS was huge. Casey Hayward should at least stabilize the CB group a bit. But they signed like 5 DTs hoping that 1-2 of them pan out as good. They kept the same linebackers from last year, hoping that Littleton bounces back from last year's disaster. And they're hoping that Bradley's scheme helps Abram by giving him less responsibility.
i'm expecting 8-9 or 9-8
if rodgers joins the broncos, drop that by at least 1 win
Seems like a fantasy wasteland. Maybe take a shot on Drake late. Still think Ruggs is interesting.
wasteland indeed
get waller, and get out.
yeah, i guess drake could be a very late value pick. other than that the kicker should be good again.
i dont have faith in Ruggs to be a viable fantasy play, even if he improves on the field. i think his best case scenario is that old desean jackson stat line where week to week he's extremely volatile, and depending on hitting the home run. i dont see him being a good floor guy at all
I've kind of resigned myself to not getting Waller. I'm guessing he's late 2nd/early 3rd at the lowest.
Won't they put Ruggs in the slot almost full time?
No, he's on the outside for good tbh.
slot is going to be a combination of Renfrow and Snead. neither will be fantasy viable.
That’s ed imo. I’d be trying to get the ball to Ruggs as much as possible.
Gruden thinks he's his Tyreek
Who’s the Mahomes?
who’s the Tyreek again?
i dont have a snappy response vid for that one
the Raiders
recent additions of K.J. Wright, Gerald McCoy, Denzel Perryman are nice
3 has beens unfortunately. there's a reason they weren't brought back.
I like the addition of Wright. He’s still got some juice
seeing the raiders organization melting down and fans losing their online like
