SilverNBlackFan Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Since we are cutting our loses, let's cut Mariota. He's a bum that Gruyock made the highest paid backup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll trade a max crosby for a lynn bowden. Bowden must've looked expendable at RB and no room for him at WR really. if he plays wr in miami he could do well. also, should of tried to ship him to Jets at WR What picks? Jacobs and Crosby are literally the only two we have enough tape on to call home runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnobili Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 with Riddick also getting cut we are looking at Jacobs/Booker/Richard... wonder if they bring back Washington or give Peterson a call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaidersAreOne Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Per Williamson: #Raiders weren’t loving Bowden’s character fit. They’re disappointed because of the value of the No. 80 pick and the plans they had for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayock and Gruden should know this isn't NCAA '14. You don't just switch positions based on some rating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't ever think he was going to be the RB2. Moreso a matchup piece. Like a RB/WR hybrid like he did in college. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me a winning football team with out a few "character issues". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he wasn't implicated, but it could be one of those "where there's smoke, there's fire" scenarios. Otherwise, I wonder if he got wrapped up in the lights of Vegas? Doesn't seem like he was around long enough though. I can almost guarantee we'll never know. Could be the Raiders just trying to save face too.

Maybe their was more to the DEA/ATF raid then we all heard and the Raiders got scared about future problems with him.... but can’t say it wasn’t something they didn’t already know about existing when we drafted him... maybe more stuff happened tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And based on his character that wasn’t a good thing. Had to keep Ruggs non diva and not have the bad influence. Edwards kind of has not been grouping himself with them and just been grinding minding his own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
