If we sign any of the others, hopefully it’s only for vet minimum so we could just cut them if necessary Compton and Jordan as backups aren't terrible depending on how the draft shakes out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darbsk Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 All joking aside we've signed another TE, a guy we're familiar with Paul Butler https://www.silverandblackpride.com/2020/4/16/21224382/raiders-claim-tight-end-paul-butler-waivers-nfl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve not got Waller, Witten, Moreau, Carrier, O’Leary, and Butler. We usually carry 6 TEs in camp so we appear to have that position filled.

oakdb36 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I think we're filling the roster with vets because UDFAs won't have much of a shot during this very limited offseason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had tough luck with injuries last year, so he was a cut. I could see him earning a spot. Why Carrier still on the team LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrier was a decent ST player and a capable TE2 for short periods caused by injuries. With Moreau recovering from injury I’m grossing that’s keeping Carrier around.

Yeah I don’t see us bringing in more than 8-10 UDFAs to camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaidersAreOne Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Percy Harvin is attempting a comeback. Wonder if we kick the tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be shocked if he even gets a workout. He’s at 185lbs apparently, I thought he played at 195-200ish. he’s been gone for 3 years and suffered a ton of injuries the last few years Last time he really produced he was 24 back in ‘12. He was decent in ‘14 but 51 catches and under 500yds and 1 TD in 13 games doesnt excite me at the time nor 6 years later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was constantly hurt the final 3-4 years. He even retired in ‘16 to let his body recover and then resigned with Buffalo a month later. his body broke down... time away healed them but overall his body is broken down and too old now.
