Oakland Raiders sign....
Another old vet Carlos Rogers signs contract with Oakland Raiders
The Oakland Raiders have locked down another veteran in their ongoing roster rebuild. The team announced Monday that it has signed former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Carlos Rogers. The Raiders offered visual proof via social media: Rogers will turn 33 in July and is entering his 11th NFL season. He spent the last three seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, starting all 48 regular-season games he appeared in under Jim Harbaugh. Rogers saw his role diminished in the postseason following a hamstring injury and was cut three weeks ago in a move that created $5.1 million in cap space for San Francisco. Rogers represents another short-term fix for general manager Reggie McKenzie. With Tarell Brown and D.J. Hayden locked into roles on the outside, expect Rogers to do most of his work out of the slot. |
Old vets have brought wins & championships over the past 40 years. It seems to work for them. They'll be an intresting team this year!

I like how everyone is hating on the Raiders, at least they are trying. We're effortless.

Stay where yer at.. it's not like you dopes were just a player or two away from competing with the Broncos
Only advice I'd give the Chiefs, Chargers and Raiders is to sit back, build your team and in 2 years when Frankenberry retires from the Mule head stadium.. then make your move |

There's a way to tweak the system and tweak contracts. Denver managed, not us.

Looks like an almost completely new roster in Jokeland. Should be interesting this season.
|
They just signed 2 of the top 3 CB's on the 49ers roster this past season, can't really say that's a bad thing.
That's gonna be a better team, there's no question. |
The Raiders are better. Yes they added talent, but this offseason is like a handbook in how to spend money just to spend money. Compare what the Raiders did to the Broncos. The Broncos signed pretty young, still in their prime players, that their former team would've loved to keep. I'm trying to think of the player Oakland signed that their former team wasn't like, meh, go ahead, we're fine. Brown maybe?

The Raiders HAVE to spend money. They were teetering on having to pay fines for hoarding too much money... |

I think at the end of the day they're a better team now than they were at the end of the season. |

Oakland signed some vets, who still should have a couple good years left, and didnt' break the bank signing them. Oakland looks to have similar cap room next offseason as well. How about the Chiefs? Well, giving a player like Bowe over 11 mill per season is hamstringing your ability to sign players to fill the gaps in your squad. |

The Raiders had to spend the money... Don't give me the "At least they are trying" bullshit...

My Saints fan coworker just told me the raiders just traded 3 picks for Jimmy Graham?
|
The Raiders are spending money, but that hasn't made the Redskins contenders in the past, nor did it work for the Eagles when they were being called the "dream team" a few years ago.
Talent without coaching and leadership isn't going to take them anywhere, we'll see if they have either of those in quantity. |
Must be a lame April Fools joke, I don't think the raiders are even that stupid

But if Oakland wants to trade away half their draft like they usually do, that's ok with me. |

The Raiders have gotten better.....if you deny that.....then you're living in a dream world. Their d-line is better. Their CBs are better. Even their QB position is better. Schaub may not be what he he used to be....but he's ****ing light years ahead of McCloin and Pryor.

I think the raiders will either be decent, or just disappoint.. Im not expecting a 10+ win season especially with our division the way it is.. But id say a 7-9, 8-8 season is on the horizon for them.
