let's see younger than sapp, cheaper than sapp, was hurt the past 2 years so not worn down, and we don't need him to play every down....but
you guys are right though.....he was a very bad signing..I mean we need depth at that position...but we went after a guy with a super bowl ring, a couple pro bowls under his belt....what we should have did was went after a guy with not much experience instead.
man some of you raider fans are very very funny.
Tony,
If the Raioders would make a good move I would applaud it..BUT THEY HAVEN'T! The best move I think they made this off season was McCowen...BUT you off set that with Russell
You can't start McCowen with confidence now because half the fans will be with him the other have crying for russell to start...no win situation..believe me I was there with Denver last year...it truly is ano win situation
I also like the Michael Bush pick..BUT you have money invested in 2 backs who have not proven to be #'s on thier own...so now you have 3 guys who are all unproven #'1 at the nfl level.....running back by commitee is decent but in the afc west you have the worst set of rb's..so again doesn't improve your situation.
You also have carlisle and newberry...they fit a need but didn't FIX a need......see a team like denver needed dline help and db help..all they did was get bly, adams, and drafted a couple of highly touted d-line players...that';s improvemtn...while the raiders got players of need, they aren't exactly improvement.
so my bashing of the raiders isn't because of hatred..IT BECAUSE THE MOVES ARE NOT SMART MOVES!
You see the common denominator? ALL FANS OF ALL TEAMS say the same thing I do about all moves.
you have fans of 2 other differnt teams saying the same I do...this move helps denver tremendously
and in other threads you have fans of about 6 other teams agreeing with me that the raider moves are nothing to write home about.
but go ahead and think it's just bias!
Raider fans you guys crack me up.
