Charles Woodson Jersey Tiff Demonstrates Continued Culture Problem in Oakland Locker Room

Via Know It All Football  |  July 26, 2013
Well, these are the stories you get stuck with during the longest offseason in sports. Charles Woodson has landed back where he started his career — in Oakland — where the future Hall of Famer will almost certainly wrap up his career and cement in place in Silver and Black lore. During his first stint in with the Raiders, Woodson was one of the elite corners in the league. He...

The Pryor Quandary: How Will the Oakland Raiders Use Terrelle Pryor?

Via Football and Futbol  |  July 26, 2013
  The 6’5 240 pound Terrelle Pryor is destined to become the number three quarterback this year for the Oakland Raiders. When Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie decided to trade the overpaid and overrated Carson Palmer this offseason it looked like Pryor would have a chance to start. However, with the addition of journeyman Matt Flynn it altered Pryor’s chances. On draft...

Matt Flynn looking like the Raiders top quarterback

Via Pro Football Zone  |  July 26, 2013
  According to Scott Bair of CSNBayArea.com,  quarterback Matt Flynn is clearly the Raiders number one guy right now. Quarterback Matt Flynn is clearly the No. 1 guy at this point, and looked the part with several accurate passes to the right receivers. Coach Dennis Allen liked Flynn’s effort but wants more consistency than the quarterback and other members of the passing game...

McFadden looks forward to return to old system

Via Fox Sports  |  July 28, 2013
Darren McFadden hopes that going downhill will be just the tonic to revive his career with the Oakland Raiders. Back in a familiar offense that suits his running style perfectly, McFadden is looking to bounce back from a disastrous 2012 campaign and return to the big-play back he was for the two years Hue Jackson ran the Raiders' offense. Oakland switched schemes after Jackson...

Raiders training camp day two, quick hits

Via Thoughts from the Dark Side  |  July 28, 2013
Here are some quick hit thoughts on the Raiders' Saturday training camp. The team has practice on Sunday at 9:20 am, their first session in pads: -UDFA Conner Vernon has been a fan favorite ever since the team signed him immediately following the draft. He earned further support after Dennis Allen mentioned him by name, saying that Vernon had caught his eye after minicamp...

Raiders sign former Pro Bowler

The Oakland Raiders have signed free agent offensive lineman Andre Gurode. General manager Reggie McKenzie announced the deal Friday just hours after Gurode worked out for team officials at training camp. Gurode has played in 151 games with 127 starts in 10 seasons with Dallas and Baltimore. He was active for two games with Chicago last season but did not see action. Gurode was...

Sifting through Raiders Training Camp day one

Via Thoughts from the Dark Side  |  July 27, 2013
Some thoughts about what to make of the first day of Raiders 2013 training camp. -Starting Battles: A lot of training camp is about who is standing out but it’s obviously too quick to say much for the first day. However, if this year’s coaching staff is similar to last year’s, a lot can be gleaned from who starts practices. Last year’s coaching staff hardly changed the...

How Will Andre Gurode Help Oakland Raiders?

Via Football and Futbol  |  July 26, 2013
The Oakland Raiders have just signed five-time Pro Bowl center Andre Gurode. The former Dallas Cowboys star did not see action last year but he did show enough in workouts to merit a one year contract. Gurode will be reuniting with offensive line coach Tony Sporano who coached Gurode under the same capacity in Dallas. The Raiders have some question marks at all interior positions...

Napa Report: Matt Flynn Shines At First Practice

Via Football and Futbol  |  July 27, 2013
Matt Flynn shined in his first training camp practice with the Oakland Raiders. It is not surprising that he out performed rookie Tyler Wilson and the raw Terrelle Pryor. While I don’t want to get carried away over one practice (Like Iverson said practice? you talking about practice?) it is important that Flynn shows from the start, that he is the leader of the team. If Flynn could...
