Raiders release Matt Flynn.
http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/4949/matt-flynn
Raiders released QB Matt Flynn. It's a stunning admission of defeat from out-of-his-depth GM Reggie McKenzie, but hardly surprising considering coach Dennis Allen's barely-concealed disdain for his would-be starting quarterback. Flynn had tumbled behind Matt McGloin — a painful to watch quarterback in college — on the depth chart, and was embarrassingly inept in his Week 4 spot start against the Redskins. The fact that he's bringing home a guaranteed $6.5 million this season is one of the most embarrassing GM gaffes in recent memory. Between his money wasted in Flynn and fourth-round misfire on Tyler Wilson, McKenzie has proven he has no idea what he's doing with quarterbacks. Barely a No. 2 level talent, it's possible Flynn will latch back on with the Packers, who lack a viable backup behind Aaron Rodgers. Source: Jim Trotter on Twitter Oct 7 - 2:21 PM |

This team has something like 70% of their cap invested in dead money. That is insane.

That was a planned move. They are taking the hit this year so that next year they will have more money than any team in the league. They released a lot of guys to take the hit now. MacKenzie is smart and he worries me.

How crazy is it that McKenzie whiffed on both his QB's this offseason (Wilson for a 4th, Flynn for a 5th) but may be saved because of an Al Davis pick (Pryor)?

I think RM is doing a great job. He's in his second year and isn't going to hit on every transaction. If he didn't get Flynn then who else to compete? Wilson is still on the team and Mcgloin has earned his spot. Most people with a brain can realistically look at what he took on last year (cap hell,no 1/2/3 draft pic) and give him time before they judge him.
