AL DAVIS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Raiders could move only if Mark Davis sells
A report by Pro Football Talk indicates that the Oakland Raiders, along with the St. Louis Rams, should be on the short list of teams that could relocate to Los Angeles. But, as the report points out, there's a perceived catch. Mark Davis may not be allowed to take his team to Southern California.

McKenzie a veteran in rookie GM role
It was probably more symbolic than anything else but, as he hustled through the lobby of the posh Palm Beach, Fla., hotel where the NFL convened its annual meeting six weeks ago, on his way to a session for top executives from all 32 franchises, Reggie McKenzie wore a tweed sports coat and green slacks.

Oakland Raiders 2012 Draft: Changing of the Guard
What’s up RaiderNation? Guess what? The 2012 NFL draft starts tomorrow. OK, I can already hear you saying, what difference does that make, we don’t have a pick until the end of round 3. That is very true, and without Al Davis around, I don’t see any blockbuster trade happening to get a first round [...]

A new day in Oakland: Can the Raiders escape Al Davis’s shadow in 2012?
Sure, life is ever-changing.
But for the Oakland Raiders, everything this off-season has had it’s own sense of oddity. From the abnormal, non-splashy free agency, to the changing of coaches to the approaches of the draft, the Raiders are working against their history…and to that end, the team may be stronger for it.
