Kelee with revenge on the ref that has called DPI on him in camp

I know he’s beaten Steen, Toth and Green. Couldn’t say on Landon.

My fear is that Green is so bad, whoever matches up against him looks good and this is Joe Ostman all over again.

Interesting that when talking about Wilson, Nick threw out how Ainias Smith is doing, then mentioned Marshall and Cook having good camps and added on Darius Cooper. Looking forward to seeing all five on Thursday. I hope they play Cooper against stronger competition than the Bengals 3s.

Mukuba has been hurt and I don't think Vic trusts Sydney Brown that much. I anticipate DeJean will play a lot of safety early on in the season, which will let McWilliams play the slot. They need more bodies at CB and they seem to like what they have on the DL.

Either Ojomo has taken the leap or our interior OL is struggling. Sounds like he’s dominating.

I think Ojomo has taken a big leap. I'm pretty bias though, but I watched him single-handedly dominate Alabama's entire OL in 2022. He can play at a very high level, he was just very young and not quite developed. He's still only 24 for this season. I think he's going to make a lot of people forget about Williams.

Fran said Bennett had superb athletic testing, but on film doesn't look like it matches sometimes. Said reminds him of a shorter Ringo. Very good straight line speed, but looks stiff hipped and doesn't move well laterally. Said he skipped those tests at the combine, probably because he knew he wouldn't test well in them. Said like Ringo, struggles to find the ball when in coverage and come away with INTs even when in position. Doesn't think he's a real threat to challenge for CB2.

I've heard a few saying the Eagles got a steal. There is a reason Fran isn't working for a front office. I'll trust Howie.

I just walked past a picture of that scene in the Stanley.

I like the trade for several reasons. First, it gives Booker a real boost. He was buried here where he'll get 10 snaps a game +/-. In LV he'll be no worse the DT #4 and probably #3 soon enough. Players notice these things. Second, Bennett looks like a good depth piece at worst and has two years left on a rookie contract. Jackson will be 30 in September; Bennett is 24. Bennett is also faster. Finally, I love that Howie is always looking.

Speaking of dispensaries, they can sell THC seltzers at liquor stores and even bars now around here. Pretty wild to see.

Not sure where you are at but I see them in both DE and NJ.

It’s delta 9 however. You can get that mailed to you in PA.

Time management

From the Raiders perspective. Someone thinks they have DT1 in Thomas Booker.

Our #5 DT may be their #1?

I love how within 24 hours the Eagles got "one of the best CB's in the NFL" for "Best DT1".

Tooo many people have platforms just saying anything.

yep, it's ridiculous.

Just now, RememberTheKoy said:

It's about both. They are in a competition. If one of them was looking good to the Eagles then they would simply win the competition. Since both aren't looking good enough they now beung in another person to enter that competition.

Last year the team had Slay, Rodgers, Ringo and Ricks as outside CBs. This year they have Ringo, Ricks and Jackson. I think it's just about adding depth at an important position.

One nice thing about Booker was his versatility. Given our possible lack of edge depth, Booker could have given some DE snaps. Not OLB edge, but he could play end like Graham or Sweat sometimes did.

Robinson can do that. Hall, I thought was really just a NT.

I think mostly this is a sign that Robinson is looking good, which meant Booker was expendable and now has a chance to play somewhere else.

Hall played as a DE in a 5 technique in college. He's listed under 300 lbs. I think he is pretty interchangeable up front.

I'm not dismissing the possibility that rather than Howie calling around for CBs, Vegas was looking for a DT and offering Bennette to get one.

Ojomo vs our Pro Bowl OL...

I think he's saying he's the best DT on the Raiders. I don't know if that's true at all. The 2 DT's that were the projected starters after Wilkins was cut were Adam Butler and Luaulu. Butler is 31. Luaulu has never been a starter and was a 7th round pick by the Colts. They drafted Tonka and Pegues in the 4th and 5th rounds this year. I don't think it's a stretch to say Booker is the best DT on their roster at this point.

Because he's not good at numbers. Remember, Howie started as an accountant/lawyer unpaid intern with the team working on salary cap issues, not the scouting department.

Well that guy's name is "Optimistic Raider", so he's at least a little self-aware. He might need to switch it to "Delusionally Optimistic Raider", but frankly, its possible given that horrific roster that Booker is actually their best option now. 🤷‍♂️

I know what they are saying and it's stupid.
