He's back! Maxx Crosby merged superthread

Tank is full speed ahead!

Meh. Wish they dealt with Dallas instead and held out for 12 and next years 1st. Bal doesnt have much competition in that crappy division. They will win it and that pick will be in the 20's. NFC east is more up for grabs. Dallas' pick has a much better chance of being top 10-15.

Couldn't disagree more. I think Baltimore is on the down big time. They had the same 'crappy' division this past year and still ended up with a top 15 pick. Lamar ain't winning shit and Henry is a year older. We're good.

Pace yourself

I'm the definition of pace, when everyone was slobbering on PC's & Geno's ball sacks last year I was vehemently apposed to the moves;) But yea I'm not ever convinced until I see it on the field!

Rams say hi....

Rams draft well, year after year. That created a foundation.
We have a few years to go of good solid drafts to be in that position.

Are we on the hook for Wilkins 29 million cap hit or is it in arbitration?

[Cruisin with Tooz]

It will be interesting to see if anyone spills some piping hot tea on the backstory. Did the IR saga fracture the relationship? Did Crosby request the trade or did Spytek want to move on?

On a missed FG in game 17.

First time I have even sniffed the koolaid in 20 plus years, but I may taste it if we have more day's like today!!!!

That's the spirit.

I'm still waiting for the 'you don't get better by trading your best players' crowd to come out from hiding and tell us they are pissed at our front office for this trade.

This is exactly how you ignite a rebuild. Props to everyone involved.

[Cruisin with Tooz]

Pittsburgh has no qb. Cin has no defense. Cle has no qb. I will bet 5000 silver dollars Bal wins that division.

Agree they will be weeping & wailing wanting JH back by week 4!

I wonder if there was some ego involved and Crosby didn't want to share the spotlight and "the face of The Raiders" with Mendoza?

There could be 100 reasons but that's not one of them

[GoodTimeCharlie]

Kinda sad, kinda stoked.
Love Maxx, was the face of the team.
Ah well, it's a new day dawning I guess.

Until this offseason, with all the failures, dysfunction, and apocalyptic stupidity, this was the face of the Raiders…

Balt has a good team, they also now appear to have cap problems. Lamar needs to restructure and as of today still hasn’t announced a new deal, Balt can push void years but no one wants that

They need Oline starters and depth and their def is missing pieces since their star DT hurt his neck. Keep in mind they have a new head coach (chargers def coordinator- Jessie Minter). They also have an offensive coordinator in Doyle who worked on under Ben Johnson last year. He has never been totally responsible for an offense before and only 29

I could just as easy see them making a Super Bowl run or struggling

Eyebleach, stat.
