The Official 2011 Oakland Raiders offseason thread

[Meta4iCAL]

Boss also had the luxury of playing with pretty decent WRs, giving him the opportunity to grab those TDs because the defenses weren't keying on him.

Meanwhile Miller did his thing when opposing defenses were keying on him and only him in passing situations.


As a Chiefs fan, Im glad ya'll let Miller get away. :classic:

sure you could look at it that way, but you could also say that because we have nothing but young inexperienced WRs, Miller was usually our QB's best option, which caused his stats to be inflated

on most teams the QB wouldn't look to Miller as much because they can get the ball to the receivers more often

at the end of the day our offense revolves around the running game, Zach Miller was a nice compliment, but was not the focal point of our offense. it's gonna hurt our offense, but our offense should improve in other areas at the same time

our WRs should be better considering they'll be even more experienced, Schilens is back (let's hope he stays healthy) also I think our O-line should be improved,hopefully Campbell steps it up from last season

again... if you think this is gonna be completely detrimental to our team you're fucking dumb... it's a step back, but we'll have to take steps forward in other areas to make up for it

^^^ I very much agree and if we find a decent replacement for him like Boss we wont really notice that Millers gone. Raiders offense is built on smash mouth football like it or not haters and we were very good at it last year. It still amazes me how many points we averaged a game without much of a passing game last season.

 

[Jack Tracks]

we'll be fine.. they'll bring in BOSS..

You should have waited man, never buy a players jersey when he's a free agent

 

[radiostationrep]

Reece may be an option at tight end also, you never know. He is 6'3 240. A little small but should be able to play there.

 

[Skizzy Ske]

I like Reece as our FB but on certain plays, he can line up as a TE.

And LOL @ chreebos comment wit us getting a top 5 pick. U really are retarded if u think that. But if that's the case than the 9ers r gonna get that no 1 pick. And ur lame ass excuse bout "posting raider related news", riiiiiiiiiiight lol. Still post more in this thread then ur own damn team but we all know ur a closet raiders fan.

Boss would be a huge if we can sign him

 

[nrodgers]

this miller thing will hurt us. Al will not be signing a TE myers is the man and he will not be anywhere near miller. Our o-line isnt really improved campbell will still be scrambling and now he wont have his safety net to throw too. This will hurt us this year. we will finish 6-10

 

[MaC A$$ ViC]

fuck no we go 6-10. we signed 4 o-line men yesterday. we also got lil wiz and veldheer on the line.


The Oakland Raiders announced four roster moves Tuedsay night. The Silver and Black re-signed C Samson Satele, and added tackles Stephon Heyer and Seth Wand, and G Justin Smiley.
The 6’3”, 300-pound Satele was acquired by the Raiders in 2009 via a trade with the Miami Dolphins. He has played in 63 games with 59 starts since entering the NFL as a second round pick out of Hawaii. Satele has started 27 of 31 games since joining the Silver and Black in 2009 and was part of an offensive line that helped the Raiders rank second in the NFL in rushing last season.
Heyer, 6’6”, 330 pounds, entered the NFL with the Washington Redskins as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Maryland in 2007. He has played in 49 games with 33 starts. He saw action in 12 games with five starts last season.
Smiley entered the NFL as a second round draft pick of the San Francisco 49ers in 2003 after playing college football at Alabama. The 6’3”, 310-pounder has played in 88 games with 78 starts. He played for Miami from 2008-09 and spent the 2010 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Wand, 6’7”, 330 pounds, spent the first three seasons of his career with the Houston Texans after the Texans selected him in the third round of the 2003 NFL Draft. Wand played for the Tennessee Titans in 2006. He also played for the Raiders from 2007-08. He has played in 53 games with 18 starts.

Hue Jackson is a leader of men. The man knows how to get the most out of his players. His energy alone makes them have to step their game up. We will be a playoff team this year. His ability to manipulate defenses is undeniable. The Raiders are about to do some special things. Remember who told you first.

 

[Solitary 1]

Oh u mean the guy who hasn't lost to the raiders

And campbell is better?

40$

I been postng news. And every niner player that has left I been ok with minus spikes


That's the thing he put up good #s with the shitty raiders so he's worth it

$40 bucks says the Niners finish last in the NFC West. You're on.

Easy money.

 

[savage]

^I hope that shit doesn't happen. If that happens, then that means they get the first draft pick and if they get the first draft pick, they'll pick up Andrew Luck, and I don't want that shit to happen lol

 

[corinthian]

if we go 6-10, it wil have nothing to do with losing miller and nnamdi. that would mean the whole team regressed.

RRRRRAAAAAIIIIIDDDDDDEEEEERRRRRRSSSSS!

3K for 8 games??? Damn dude...thats WAAAAY too much. Is this for 2 seats at least?

You can get a home game package at Seahawk Stadium for $800, and be on the 40 yard line...shit is dope.

 

[RAS 925]

at least we had one loyal RAIDER still on this team.. Huff! dude said he didn't even bother answering other teams calls.. we even signed him w/o over paying for once?! crazy lol .. hope he flourishes well under Rod Woodson.. wouldn't be surprised to see him dominating shit at CB along with Routt.. and have Branch and Mitchell as safetys

 

[RAS 925]

btw guys we are still a better team than tha DONKS, DOLTS, QUEEFS.. off tops!! our D is still very well intact w/ the exception of losing Nnamdi ( isn't gonna hurt us, book it ).. yeah the Miller loss stings, but we finally gonna have a offense that will move the ball so I'm not too worried about things

 

[killahoe666]

What's the latest on Michael Bush?

 

[RAS 925]

we MUST re-sign Bush.. our running game is def. our strength on offense, McFadden, Bush, Taiwan Jones ?! killin em'!

seriously tho gotta do what it takes to keep Bush here, from the looks of it he def. wants to remain in Oak unlike some other fucks
