About two days ago a co-worker of mine handed me a for sale sign that read "For Sale '08 Raiders 3-13 on the year complete waste of my time take off my hands cheap!!! Includes left tackle JaMarcus Russel" Refreshing, heres some food for thought has anybody ever heard of buy low sell high this is about as low as it gets, But give Mr. Davis credit where credit is due he is doing every thing he can to return us to greatness. In three years we will have one probowl QB, two probowl CB, and one probowl saftey "Wilson" and mark my words one hell of a DT in Kelly as well as our AFC west crown back THEN maybe then come to me with this for sale stuff untill then lets just sit back and enjoy the autumn wind.

Ok this is proof we need to look past all this hype I mean, He sounds like he doen't know who JaMarcus is and he states he is a broncos fan......This sounds like a man tthat would not want to be here and really nation I am not so sure we need him!

Add on from yesterday do I think he will be good yes! But can we afford him, and more importantly could we afford not to go DEFENSE with this selection? "If you're out car shopping, it's more fun to shop for the Ferrari even if you really ought to be considering the durability of a Hummer for the long haul." Just a thought.

Dont mess with a good thing right? Well in this case maybe add just a little more surgar to this recipe and WHOLLA.....We all know the current roster situation in P-town and for the next 10-12 years we will be able to dominate ala "San Antonio" with our super three Roy, Oden, and LA almost any wich way we go we will be fine standing pat or bringing in our over seas "TROOPS"

either way will transalate into victories. Lets look at some key addtions with out much subtraction, Oden of course being number one will shore up the inside and get the tought rebounds something LA is still learning! Then we have Rudy Fernandaz who maye be the awnser to our three spot him along with Outlaw and Webs now were talkin. And then there is the wild card 19 year old Petteri Koponen our Finnish PG who could be a supersatr in the waiting while honing in his BB skills in Finland he may just be the surprise we are looking for at th 1 spot. I expect Raef to be gone maybe sergio miles and maybe even jack, if jack where to leave via trade Pritch and Nate must see something in Petteri that we havn't but with thier track record I will be on board no matter what so is the recipe good? Yes but could we add a little BAM to make it better I think so!

While speed is always one of Mr. davis' favorite things we can not over look that promoting is the biggest thing for all rookies, lets forget the combine the 40 time and the shuttle for just a minute, and look at facts is reggie bush as good as all the hype or is he just a "utility guy" the texans knew better than to follow the hype sure reggie will have a productive carrer and maybe a few pro-bowls but Mario williams 14 sacks WOW he will be an all pro for years to come reggie's self promotion as well as the hiesman race put him in the best player in the draft talk he is not a feature back dont get me wrong he will be good but not great. Fast forward two years later and we have McFadden all the hype of his speed and his hiesman campaign and he is all of a sudden self proclaimed " the best athlete in the draft" why could he slip two number 6 or 7 if he is the best? He is not and he willl be a flash and burn 8-10 years in the league and never better than pretty good while his home run hitting style will sell tickets and score a few TDs and oh he would look pretty good in silver and black.......Lets make the right decsion draft defense Gholston, Dorsey. or Howie Jr if he is still on the board come on Mr. Davis this will set us up for years to come lets do it right and oh for all you Mcfadden lovers 4 words Justin Fargas, Micheal Bush!
