2026 Draft - Raiders & all teams (April 23-25)

Post by RaiderFan1 »

Obvious Mendoza #1 no consideration of trading that pick.
But who you got picks 2 - 4 thats going to help Mendoza.

#2 Raiders should be able to select WR Chris Bell or WR KC Concepcion with our early 2nd.

#3 I forget who it was, but someone here mentioned that the best pure dominant RT coming out of college could be got in the 3rd. And stated hes played his whole career at RT, and not being moved around the line.

Sounds like solid gets

Id hope the rest of the draft is building the trenches, with maybe 1 DB in there

Who else you like ?

How is that like getting him for free? It's like getting him for a 4th round pick .
If you have 3 $100 bills in your pocket and buy something for $100 is it like getting it for free because you have 2 left?

Funny you should ask, I have an extra $100 coming from that guy who bet me $100 that we won't draft Mendoza.

Its like I have three bikes and if I give one away I still have a ride or two. I don't sweat it like if I had only one bike.

But it is not even like getting him for free. We are giving up a pick. And every pick you gave up something to get except for the actual picks your team gets slotted for your draft position. So there is an initial cost.

It is free because if you have 3 $100 bills in your pocket, youre wearing someone else's pants.

Evidently, it's a slow day for Raider news. Someone must've called the grammar police.

The correct number of bikes you need is N+1. Where N is the number of bikes you have now.

Especially from politicians. There is nothing free. Nothing.

Is this a one-time calculation or is the calculation meant to be iterated?
