Way far off the mark. He comes to Oakland, he's a back up.

 

Its just a knee sprain. 2-3 weeks tops. Manual is great for a rookie and bills are really going somewhere with him.

I don't see Freeman there

 

Freeman will end up in Jax or Arizona imo.

 

Thought they were looking at more like 4-6 weeks with the knee injury.

Looks like the Vikings got him so that's good for them.... bad for ponder. LOL!

 

I did see this in the article I read though...
"Freeman reportedly attracted interest from Buffalo, where he could have started for at least a few weeks. NFL Media columnist Michael Silver reported that Freeman also would have been the starter had he landed with the Oakland Raiders."


Looks like I was pretty on point for who would be talking to him. LOL!

 

Matt Flynn cut.

More money down the drain.

 

Saw that coming. And yeah... the Flynn move was a HUGE waste. But at least the organization is manning up to it and dealing with it sooner than later.

I think the organization is finally on it's way up. We just have a few more issues to correct. Be a very interesting draft and off season. McFadden better start playing better or he's going to be gone as well.

My money... Jennings goes off. Makes them start to question McFadden even more.

 

Isn't this contract year for McFadden? If so, I think hes gone.

 

Yes. And from what I've seen... it's the first time I've actually started to go against him.

 

DMC has nothing left to show us. Regardless of how bad the I-line has been, DMC has got no vision. He runs straight into traffic every time. His only plus side is being able to gash for yards at the 2nd level. But he never gets that far so it's not worth considering.

He's very replaceable.

 

I don't know why... The numbers are scary. But somehow, I think we beat KC.

KC has faced 4 not so great teams. They should have lost to DAL, but I dunno how they won that one.

Raiders are easily the toughest D# KC has faced. No doubt that the pass rushers on KC are the hardest we've faced too. But we don't have a stone for the QB. I think Pryor will find it tough, but get the done.

3-3 at the bye week? Man, just the sound of that...

The next 4-5 games look winnable too.

I think i'm going crazy!

 

I think KC's defense rips Oakland apart.

As for DMF, he's been done. I'd sell high ASAP and get what you can for him. He's not the answer. Injured every year. Either that, there needs to be a Michael Bush type 1-2 combo with DMF. DMF should be 2nd/3rd down/pass down back.

I think DMF will fit in a system where he's the 2nd back.

 

KC's def has been under rated since last year.

Oak tends to play up and down to its competition and if McFadden and Jennings are both a healthy go they might pull it off. I think they'll make it close but I think they loose.

 

DMC has little value. All of the backs that have stepped up to take his place when injured have performed as good or better than him.

He's a waste of space and entirely replaceable. Especially once they get some cap space freed up this off season.

Alex Smith and KC's defense will wear this team out by the 3rd quarter or sooner. Sorry Pryor, but you wound up in a team that can't provide you with any support this season. You're going to have to get a win all on your own.

 

I think in the right system DMC could be great but he's a huge injury risk. He needs to be on a team with 2 good backs. He can't be THE guy.

Sucks for the Raiders as there aren't all that many crazy RB's in the draft this year... but I'd take one if I were them... maybe second round.

Or make a move for one of the unhappy platoon backs. Bernard Pierce. I'd love Bryce Brown. Ben Tate. Joique Bell

These guys are all back ups that would be great for the Raiders.

Reece is a solid RB. Good blocker. One of the best FB receivers in the game right now... if not the best. He's a must have.

Pull in another solid RB to help him out and you're money.

McFadden and Reece should be a really good 1/2 but neither can stay healthy long enough to get a groove going.
