Oakland Renegades

[Trojan]

We accept the Steelers trade for Akhello Witherspoon for a 2023 5th round pick. The roster spot is remaining open for Hunter Bryant's return or maybe Jace Sternberger should the Packers release him after his suspension is up in a few weeks.

2022 draft picks:
1. Chicago Bears (from Justin Fields trade, IRL NYG holds this pick)
1. Oakland Renegades
2. Carolina Panthers (from trade from #2 overall, IRL CAR holds this pick)
2. Oakland Renegades
3. Oakland Renegades
4. Chicago Bears (from moving down from #39, IRL CAR holds this pick)
4. Oakland Renegades
5. Oakland Renegades
6. Oakland Renegades
7. Oakland Renegades

Instead of Jace Sternberger or Hunter Bryants return, I'm using that 53rd slot for Jamie Newman to back up Brett Rypien while Tua is hurt (from his draft class teammate on the Renegades AJ Epenesa lol).

[Trojan]

I’m excited about how a lot of my players have played, but major oof on the injury front.

Edit: Instead of bumping my thread, I'll just edit this most recent post. I am trading Amik Robertson for Jacob Eason. IRL the Colts waived Eason, but since both players were similar draft prospect range I'll offer Amik Robertson for him. If they wouldn't accept I'd waiver claim him and waive Robertson for room so I feel like it's safe to assume I could get the trade.

Jacob Eason (#10) 2020 - 780,000 || 2021 - 895,000 || 2023 - 1,010,000

Finally found what compensation Charles Omenihu got from the trade deadline (2023 6th) and have decided to beat that with the 2023 5th we got from the Ahkello Witherspoon trade earlier. Omenihu assumes the role Henry Anderson had prior to his injury.

The Oakland Renegades are firing Kris Richard as Head Coach after three seasons. I posted earlier in the year the goal for extensions was a short term one is pick outside of the top ten, and a long term was make the playoffs this year. I think injuries bit us a touch too much and top 10 this year is 7 wins and I feel that is pretty close and I think 6 is realistic. We unfortunately lost Tua for a couple games early, and when he returned our WR group was battered, and our best offensive player got hurt around the return as well with Conklin.

The Renegades are promoting Aaron Glenn (interviewed Brian Flores, Brian Daboll and Matt Eberflus as well) as interim head coach and retaining our offensive coordinator Marcus Brady. Additionally going to hire out some more staff.

Head Coach - Aaron Glenn
Offensive Coordinator - Marcus Brady
Defensive Coordinator - Jerry Gray
Special Teams Coordinator - Tracy Smith
QB Coach - T.C. McCartney
RB Coach - Kennedy Polamalu
WR Coach - Keenan McCardell
TE Coach - Taylor Embree
OL Coach / Asst. HC - Mike Munchak
DL Coach - Andre Patterson
LB Coach - Larry Foote
DB Coach - Jonathan Cooley

With the regular season finished the Oakland Renegades finish the season 6-11 and will pick 8th (right before the 7 win teams ATL DEN NYJ WFT SEA). Additionally OAK holds the Bears first round pick from trading Justin Fields, so the Renegades will pick 7th and 8th in 2022. From the Panthers trade down from 2nd overall, the Renegades also have the 38th pick, as well as our natural 39th pick. In the third round we pick after the Bears at 72. In the fourth we hold the Bears pick (IRL held by NYG) at 103rd, as well as our natural 4th at 104th. In the last three rounds we only hold our natural picks which land at 136th after the Bears in the 5th, 166th before the Bears in the 6th, and 200 after the Bears in the 7th. Leaving us with a before compensatory picks announced list of:

1.007
1.008
2.038
2.039
3.072
4.103
4.104
5.166
6.166
7.200

Just curious if the other posters think my projection of 6-11 seems reasonable to the other posters. I won't take offense if you think my team has more or less wins, I just want to have a more accurate positioning for the draft.

QB: Tua Tagovailoa, Brett Rypien (2 starts), Jamie Newman (only was on the roster when Tua was hurt), Jacob Eason (picked up in trade when he was waived as QB3)
RB: Javonte Williams, Jamaal Williams, Eno Benjamin (Williams would split carries, with Javonte being a bellcow when Jamaal was hurt)
FB: Alec Ingold (got hurt)
WR: Corey Davis (got hurt), Quintez Cephus (got hurt)
WR: Donovan Peoples Jones, Kelvin Harmon (WFT PS irl)
SLOT: Will Fuller V (got hurt), Jamison Crowder
TE: [essentially none] Eric Ebron (terrible despite the name value and contract), Hunter Bryant (hurt), Sammis Reyes (end of roster WFT)
LT: Christian Darrisaw (hurt early), Josh Jones
LG: Dalton Risner
OC: Lloyd Cushenberry, Scott Quessenberry
RG: Wyatt Davis (irl didn't play), Ben Bredeson (was very bad on NYG, but started games irl)
RT: Jack Conklin (fantastic, but got hurt), Carson Green (I don't think he played irl)

[with Conklin out my vision is LT: Darrisaw LG: Jones 😄 Quessenberry RG: Cushenberry RT: Risner]

DE: AJ Epenesa, Henry Anderson/Charles Omenihu (Anderson went on IR, Omenihu was traded for to replace, they rotate at 5tech with Epenesa and 3tech in passing situations)
NT: Alim McNeill, Rashard Lawrence, Marvin Wilson
DT: Zach Allen, [Marvin Wilson]
DE: Nick Bosa, Yetur Gross Matos
LB/EDGE: Shaq Barrett, Shaka Toney
LB: Jabril Cox (got hurt), Kevin Pierre-Louis, Corey Littleton
LB: Jeremiah Owusu Koramoah, Kamu Grugier-Hill, Mack Wilson
CB: Steven Nelson, AJ Green
CB: Desmond King, Tay Gowan
Nickle: Thomas Graham
FS: John Johnson III, Jaquan Johnson
SS: Deshon Elliott (got hurt), Lamar Jackson [JOK would play box safety role after Elliott fell]

LS: Morgan Cox
K: Rodrigo Blankenship (got hurt)
P: Joseph Charlton (got hurt)

I'd say less than 6 wins. Offense is rough. Defense has potential, but it has some significant holes in the secondary.

My team is clearly better than the Lions right? So I'd start at 3+ wins (3rd overall) and then 6 wins is ceiling (7th/8th overall). So are the Renegades more in the Giants/Jets/Texans (4 wins) range, or Panther (5 wins). I think Panthers could be close, I think my QB situation and available [other than CMC] running game is better [ie. Williams and OL talent] are better, WRs and TEs worse and both defenses have good potential [where my corners are significantly less special]). I could see arguments that the Panthers are better.

Let's say 5 wins. Tua and Davis Mills had pretty similar production, but your defense is better than the Texans's D. So I'll say you win one more game.

There was some program called iMovie preinstalled on my laptop and I quickly threw some jpegs on it and uploaded to youtube. The audio I made using fakeyou.com with the Joe Buck voice (they also have Al Michaels).
