Smiths career is over

Sounds like horseshit, when does a man not get arrested during a DV call? Police will generally arrest no matter what if there's a threat, they wouldn't let him return inside the house with the woman that called with no charges if it's legit lol

Shit also happened 2 days ago, just now getting reported because of fucking TMZ spreading it. TMZ scours the police reports, which are public record across the entire country looking for bullshit click bait. It's pathetic that ESPN, CBS, etc. even reports that shit when TMZ are the ones that broke it, these "legit" news organizations are just as bad as TMZ.

Reports are coming out that the Raiders are gonna move on from Latavius Murray, apparently he's asking for $5+ million a year. They're saying the Raiders are gonna stick with Richard and Washington and maybe add a power back late in the draft since the RB draft class this year is so deep.

Apparently a private financier wants to fully fund a stadium for the Raiders in San Diego right next to the current Qualcomm site lol San Diego Raiders would sound retarded as fuck, but at least a fan base will be guaranteed to be in place.

Free agency starting up, here's our list of Free Agents

Safety Nate Allen
Linebacker Daren Bates
Long Snapper Jon Condo
Cornerback DJ Hayden
Wide Receiver Andre Holmes
Quarterback Matt McGloin
Defensive Tackle Stacy McGee
Running Back Latavius Murray
Linebacker Perry Riley Jr.
Tight End Mychal Rivera

Only people I really hope we resign is Condo, Perry Riley Jr., and Andre Holmes

I like Stacy McGee too, but as I was typing this saw the Redskins just gave him a 5 year deal lol fuck

Malcolm Smith is gone also, signed with the 9ers, glad we didn't resign him, he was terrible in pass defense. TE's stayed destroying dude.

 

[InfamousICON]

Aldon Smith got arrested for public intoxication lol dude has to be done now.

Fuck, was hoping he would get his shit together.

Dude was still hammered after being released and he lied to the reporter saying he was in jail visiting a friend who was locked up lol

We might get Martellus Bennett. Would be dope to finally get a legit TE for Carr to throw to. Carr has never really been able to get a TE in the rotation. We could even run some 2 TE sets with Bennett and Walford in the red zone.

What a sad story about Aldon. Dude had HOF potential. Did you guys see about Scott McGloughon? Wash fired him for showing up to games/meetings drunk.

Alcohol can be just as bad as meth, heroin etc if someone is truly an alcoholic. What a waste

 

[InfamousICON]

Menelik Watson signed with the Donkeys and DJ Hayden signed with the Lions

Lions paying Hayden $5.5 million lol

We couldn't come to terms with Bennett, sounds like Reggie low balled him. Bennett signed with the Packers instead.

After losing seven of their 13 free agents through the first two days of free agency, the Oakland Raiders got involved by agreeing to terms with offensive tackle Marshall Newhouse on a two-year contract late Friday night/early Saturday morning.

The Raiders saw right tackle Menelik Watson leave for the Denver Broncos on a three-year deal.


Terms: Two years, undisclosed money

We just signed Cordarrelle Patterson. Might fix our non existent return game. Dude is an amazing returner and will be a great deep threat for Carr. Maybe now we'll actually get a kick return TD, I don't even remember the last time we got one, Jacoby Ford 6 years ago? lol

 

[InfamousICON]

Just saw the terms of Patterson's contract, dude is getting $5.5 million a year, with option to void year 2 if he sucks. Huge money for a kick returner/WR4/Gunner. Hope it pays off, dude has potential as a deep threat with Carr throwing to him and with Musgrave gone we should be throwing deep a lot more. Reading more about him I guess the Vikings didn't bump him out of WR4 status because his route running is terrible.
