RaidersAreOne Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) I think this deserves a new thread rather than dig through an old one with 50 pages. Update... so did the Pats! https://twitter.com/NFL/status/1175142462853177345/photo/1 Edited September 20, 2019 by RaidersAreOne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 We get away without paying him a cent. Wow. Good on Mayock and Gruden! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaidersAreOne Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 From Tim Brown: And just like that, IT'S OVER! I would just like to commend @Raiders on this decision. I'm sure this is the last decision they wanted to make but right is right! #FORWARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Thank god the Raiders signed Tyrell Williams. AB really didn’t give the Raiders a choice. By the way he acted he’s probably never been fined before and is not use to that and just took it to personal. Been a wild 72 hours. Glad it’s over. I would be surprised if he plays again because he’s gonna want to get paid and I don’t see how a team can pay him the way he wants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 We have about $14M more in cap space now. Who needs extensions? Who's out there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 Overall I don't regret the trade. You had a chance to get a HOF talent for a 3rd and 5th. You do that every day. It didn't work out but I don't blame Gruden or Mayock at all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakdb36 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Quote Jerry McDonald @Jerrymcd Raiders coach Jon Gruden did not know his phone conversation was being recorded for use in Antonio Brown's video. Still not sure when that conversation took place. Could have been at a few points starting Aug. 18 and of course possibly very recently. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBXISBXVSBXVIII Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 There’s a new sheriff in town, and his name is Mike Mayock. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 Can you imagine letting all the stuff AB slide? Not fining him and paying him top dollars still? Keeping him around your locker room? Man am I stoked we shipped him out. Couldn't be happier. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Until he publicly asked for his release, I thought it would blow over once the games started. Raiders got all the pain and none of the gain from AB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManWillis Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Good riddance! Glad we finally made the right decision and released that cancer. I'm not even mad about the draft picks we lost, AB would have torn this franchise apart this season. No player is worth this kind of BS, and I'm sure the rest of the team is more relieved then anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OG_C2X Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Great for the Raiders. Really wish we would have been able to see Gruden and Carr use AB. I firmly believe it would have been Exciting to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gruden wanted AB to still be here he would. AB finally took Gruden to the point of no return. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
