This fuckin GM is not fucking around guys. Chandler Jones and now Devante?
Wonder which players we gave up. Hopefully nobody on offense like Waller or Renfrow.

I seriously doubt either one of those guys. It seems the Raiders have become a real football team...... finally.

Derek Carr finally has a true #1 WR, and fresh out of excuses in my mind. I just hate the fact that we still need a top RT, and everyone having to learn a complicated system. Bottom line is how they stopping Waller, Jacobs ,Adams, Renfrow now lol.
I'm over the moon on this.

We only sent a 1st and 2nd for him.
Hell that's like trading away a Damon Arnette / Clelin Ferrell type reach for the best wr in the game.

It was a good move but not the best move IMO. I really love the deal the Rams did with Allen Robinson. That's a great WR they got for just $15M/yr, and for only 3 years, no picks given up. That should have been us.

I don't mind making Adams the highest paid WR, but a 5-yr deal for a 29-yr-old wideout? I can only hope Zieg made it easy to get out of it after the first 3 seasons. But for these next 2-3 seasons, we'd BETTER be winning playoff games!

Also, he's not a burner. He ran a 4.56 40 (I'll point out that Jerry Rice ran a 4.71). He's a route runner (as was Rice). I don't have a problem with that, but we better get someone who can take the top off as well.

Of course, Carr will never throw to that guy...

Word is they're still pushing hard to land Stephon Gilmore.

That fucker should be jumping onboard after this trade.

Devante- I think his route running is good enough to win against most db's he lines up against. He also plays quick, and gets his ass off the line and behind his man in an instant. Besides, hopefully this will relegate Bryan Edwards to the #2 spot.
If your a defense, how you stopping everyone?

As
On gas Waller avoids injury and decides he gives a shit. Last year he didn’t look like he cared at all the last half.

I bet he gives a shit this year. I don't know how you could play with the guys we have aquired and not give a shit. This next season is going to be.............. interesting, if nothing else.

The Raiders seem to be going all in. We'll just have to see how it plays out.

Last season was a shit show...... and they still went to the playoffs. This season could prove to be very special. Let's see how the draft goes.
