Jerry Porter isn't the happiest camper
- Thread starter nofx
- Start date
In all seriousness, who gets the ring first is a toss up between Oak and SF. Let's be honest, the Raiders have more talent, but never seem to do anything with it. The Niners have talented players, but they are young and need a few more seasons before they can fully contribute to a team's success. Neither team will see a ring anytime soon.
I love whats going on.... The team is def. not siding with Porter... Heres some of the stuff some said of him
Gallery said "Great athlete but we have others ready to take his place that are very capable.
Art isn't going to take any bullsh!t, If he (Porter) doesn't like it, he can go"
Sapp said ""One guy is not gonna break down what we got going here. If he doesn't want
to march with us then he can go somewhere else, cause we don't need him."
also laughed about the fact that Porter just got a big contract so his problem must be he wants the attention
Jerry Rice also added that when he worked with Porter he thought he knew everything and didn't care to learn from him and that Tim Brown said it was the same back in 2000
Oakland Raiders DT Warren Sapp spoke about WR Jerry Porter's ongoing holdout from training camp and trade demands during an interview on SIRIUS NFL Radio. Sapp said that the team does not feel obligated to pull him aside and advise him to come into camp. "People talk about football being a family. It's not a family. It's a brotherhood of men," said Sapp. "Because in a family, if the baby is lagging behind everybody stops and waits for the baby to catch up. We can't wait for the baby to catch up. We gotta go. This thing's coming and when it's coming it is coming full speed ahead and we want to be ready to go with what we got. And if he's not gonna be a part of what we got going then some kind of way we've got to find a way to make him happy. Trade him or whatever he wants because you can't have a malcontent on a team where on Sunday we're gonna be looking for you to make plays."
Raiders | Shell a leader

Josh Dubow, of The Associated Press, reports new Oakland Raiders head coach Art Shell has quickly earned the respect of his players during training camp, and has brought a different level of credibility than his predecessors, Norv Turner and Bill Callahan. "We have a leader here now," DL Bobby Hamilton said. "I'm going to keep saying leader. That's what he is. He's a good coach, he played the game well. He's in the Hall of Fame. If you can't go by that, there's something wrong with you. You need to be out of here."
If Porter doesn't get his act together,, I wouldn't be suprised if coach Shell benches him like Gruden did

yeah but what im sayin is he aint the future answer, and yall wont know about walter til next year at least, so if he doesnt work out, then yall gotta go thru the whole qb process again, + isnt walter a FA next year?
Like the niners, if Alex Smith doesnt work out, then they are back to square 1, since they let go of dorsey and pickett, but i think dorsey will be around the nfl 4 a while......
U see what im saying?

doubt he's a FA next year... This is barly gona be his 2nd year unless they just got him on a 2 year deal.. But I'm sure even it if it is he would resign since he hasn't been into a situation where he must start right away.... I like this situation... Whoever is doing best in camp which is most likely Brooks gets the start and if things don't go to well we got Walter ready to go.... No need to rush him when he can still be groomed into Shells system
