What do you do when he comes in and looks good in camp but starts making waves or has another mod swing "incident"? I'm all for second chances but you have to think about this guys health FOR HIM at this point. I posted this link in the the other thread but here it is again. Does this sound like a guy that needs another 20-50 mini concussions? http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/24436462/richie-incognito-charged-making-threats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely he signs a bigger contract that isn’t guaranteed unless he makes the opening day roster surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s crazy but he’s good at what he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But keep in Mind that neither are long term players for the Raiders. The guys they drafted are the foundation going forward and will be leaders of tomorrow.

With his history and the fact he retired and then unretired i doubt that anyone is going to pay more than minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayRaider Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Dwayne Haskins and his dad are starting a brand similar to BBB which will be called HH. He also said this about the Raiders a mere two years ago: “The Raiders are most likely the worst team at drafting players it’s actually hilarious.” Yeah I think we dodged a bullet here. The only thing I’ve been praising about Haskins all off season is his character (extremely overrated prospect, been calling him a poor mans Carr all off season and I’m not big on Carr to begin with) and I was dead wrong about that.

Bitty 2.0 Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 This is why the Raiders traded Mack and Cooper and didn’t draft any players with the same agent. Hill pegs the floor on a Cooper deal at $16 million a year and reports the receiver’s demands to this point have been “shockingly high.” Should that remain the case, the franchise tag could come into play after the 2019 season and using it would be a far easier choice if they are able to wrap up a deal with Prescott.

Get that money, Coop. 🤘 they basically HAVE to pay him because they gave up a first for him. Dallas isnt in an enviable situation right now..already gave DLaw 100 million.. still have to pay Dak 30 mill a year, Coop 18+, and then Zeke is coming up next year along with Byron Jones and Jaylon Smith. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
