Kirk Morrison Available for a 3rd
Raiders put a 3rd round tender on him today. Guy is a stud linebacker... Discuss

Kirk Morrison is very available
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on March 3, 2010 6:23 PM ET
Stanford Routt felt the Raiders love Wednesday despite starting only one game last year.

Middle linebacker Kirk Morrison, who has led the team in tackles for five straight seasons, was not so lucky. Adam Schefter reports the team extended an "original pick" tender to Morrison, meaning any interested team would only have to give up a third-rounder if they signed him away.

Make no mistake, the Raiders would love for that to happen.

Morrison is due $2.5 million next season and would have made the exact same money if he got the second round tender. (It's explained well here by the Oakland Tribune.)



Essentially, the Raiders placed a lower tender on Morrison despite no financial savings. They wanted to create the highest chance for a trade and knew no one would give up a second-round pick for him

Morrison could get an offer sheet, and then everyone's happy. If not, he'll have to return to a team he knows didn't want him back.

UPDATE: The Raiders tendered linebacker Ricky Brown at a second-round level. He was an undrafted player, so they needed to go that high to keep him.

I bet his ass would destroy Fatmarcus 2 times a year (this year, because JR wont play after this season).

28 years old (just turned) and really good. I think he is worth our 3rd.

Very underrated player, IMO. He came out blazing his rookie year and hasn't stopped.

But, he is a life long Raider fan. The coaches would have to run that sickness out of his system.

This guy is actually worth a 3rd round pick and a couple million imo. From watching him a couple times last year he is decent.

I would find it ironic if Al ran out the only player in his organization that wanted to be there.

So the planet believes that Boldin is not worth a 3rd round pick, but this guy is?

I would trade a 3rd for either Boldin or Morrison. These are 2 proven pro bowl type players. Morrison is still pretty young too. Both fill positions of need. Wish we had two 3rd rounders....

This is a year where we can come away with two impact LB's from the Draft.

Speculation by one Pats beat writer is that the Pats will be interested. There's a fair amount of detail about how many snaps Morrison played etc., in the article, though the writer seemed clueless about how the Raiders don't really want Morrison back.

Huh? I'm all for sound special teams and defensive depth, but Morrison's been a tackling machine for the Raiders. He's a true three-down middle linebacker, having played in 1,041 of Oakland's 1,096 defensive snaps in 2009 (21 of those missed were in a game, vs. Houston, in which he got hurt). He was on the sideline for a total of 12 snaps in the season's final 12 weeks. And he's still just 28 years old.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Pats got him.
