Think we see a very active FA for the Raiders very active. Sherman did an interview with Stephen A Smith and he asked him about the Raiders and Sherman said it’s appealing place cause of Gus and the system that he has ran his whole career, but he said that he would have to talk to his wife cause playing in the AFC West with Mahomes and the Chargers won’t be easy. always figured players would think that but to hear one actually say it is interesting Agreed... I think players think this all the time. The main reason I could see Watson not wanting to come to the AFCW is because of Mahomes. And also an even bigger concern for Sherman. Mahomes has screwed us in more ways than one, players know they can't dominate a division with Mahomes in it. This is why I think Watson could end up on Washington. He could literally destroy that garbage division for a decade... even with Dak/Dallas. Washington already has a Top 3 Defense, Top 10 Coach, and Top 12 WR in McLaurin. They just desperately need an OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimkelly02 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 The Salary Cap might move to 185M, 10M above the floor that was set. https://sportsnaut.com/2021-nfl-salary-cap-latest-040221/ “According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, team officials believe the 2021 NFL salary cap will land around $185 million per club, with a slight chance for the figure to be even higher. It would be a $10-plus million improvement on the figure that the league initially feared, which will positively impact the entire league.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Gruden is going to go full tilt the other direction and get vet heavy and start relying more on that approach. I absolutely think we can land some name guys. Will it be the right ones though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruden needs to mind his own business when Bradley and Mayock discuss the defense. I want Gruden to have close to no impact on the defense. Also I do not want anyone taking Cables advice on draft picks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayRaider Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Pass on Wentz if anyone is even discussing it here. I think he has much more potential than Carr, but the last thing I want is another passive aggressive QB who gets sensitive over everything.

I'd rather have john johnson or marcus williams first and foremost. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably thinks he can beat anyone, anytime, anywhere. Mahomes is very, very good but the constant over estimating of his effect and abilities (not just by yourself, mainly by the media) is very irritating. We smashed Kansas in their own back yard this very year with a bottom 3 defence and a Beta male QB for heck's sake 🙄 On a positive, I do like Washington and they would be a great fit 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was drifting backwards because his line would get pushed back by a 4 man rush and TB had dropped 7 in coverage. Getting rid of the ball in 3 seconds probably wasn't possible. KC was pure Fade material yesterday. I knew they would get blown out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I agree with it? No. But I’m absolutely sure players make these types of decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Can u imagine Wentz and Gruden lol. Wentz couldnt handle Doug Pederson no way would he be able to take Gruden. Gruden ain’t for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injuries piled up for KC , Bucs had a tremendous game plan from Bowles , a front that can get pressure without blitzing versus a backups OLs and fast LBs who can cover a lot of ground. Yeah that's what I said, it isn't easy lol. And I completely agree. KC's OL was decimated beyond repair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
