Training Camp 2019

I'll say Eddie Vanderdoes does not make the team. Rooting for Ronald Ollie hoping he at least makes the PS. DT is such a crowded position. Wonder if this training camp Ellis could be fighting for his roster spot. They really seemed to like Hankins and for him to resign back with Oakland which not a lot of people saw that coming and thought he would take more money elsewhere was surprising.

With Ellis on the roster right now, the only way he is not on the 53 is via injury or a trade IMO. Financially it doesn't make any sense to cut him now or later this summer.

Vanderdoes could be a nice surprise IMO, but the health issue will remain a big question mark with him. I think he can stick as the 5th DT if he can stay healthy and Ollie should be able to grab a PS spot.

The media is so unfair to the Raiders.

Cleveland adds a bunch of new skill position players and the expectations are Super Bowl or bust the Raiders do it and all the reporters are talking about are possible chemistry issues.

 

Cleveland sucked enough, they were dragged in the mud enough...I kinda like that they are getting some hype now...the flip side is that they really has to start playing good :)

They will always hate on us as long as we are not winning consistently...which is fine by me...the us against the world mentality is a good one for the team IMO.

Having Ellis and Hankins both at NT ensures that they're always fresh and you have injury insurance.

to be fair after our 12-3 year everyone was on the raider bandwagon, as Carr was the young up and coming QB star.
we have been terrible since, regardless of big off season moves. 

the browns just had a good year 7-8-1, competed in most games, have a young QB who looks very promising and made just as many if not more moves then the raiders..

It's all about the QB. People think Mayfield is the next best thing and Carr is broken.

The Raiders have a rough schedule and are a ticking time bomb of players. They had a pretty pedestrian season last year with very little to look forward to unlike the Browns who have a ton of young talent.

Cleveland can player and has some star level talent on defense. 

Media also loves Baker. They loved Carr in 2016. Let's see if Baker is flash in the pan
