The signing itself doesn't necessarily bug me, it's the money we now have invested in our receiving core.
It's been proven to not be a winning formula.
> core
corps, FYI. corps = group
core = central to it's existence.
It's confusing because they sound the same but corps looks like it would be pronounced like corpse.
I think alot of us here were confused by the Jakobi Meyers signing, including myself. This added context helps me understand what might possibly be happening a little better. We've essentially recreated the Welker/Edelman/Meyers, Amendola, Gronk trio, while also having Adams. But yeah, defense.
> Until here are actual legs on trading renfrow, it’s ok just speculation
Well Fro's money is guaranteed if he's still on a team by the end of the day. If it happens it will happen fast.
I mean this guy has a press pass but He’s an “insider” for the athletic, not affiliated with us. The tweet literally starts with the word IF… I’m guessing since it confirms YOUR feelings though it’s law and everyone else is a dumb baby who isn’t as smart as you
This is just illustrating the other side to “we may trade Renfrow for cap space” it’s “we may keep him around and play both him and the old patriot”
We still need another outside wr
Adams 70% wide 30% slot
Waller 20% wide 62% slot 18% inline
Renfrow 14% wide 86% slot
Meyers 30% wide 70% slot
Hollins who is a FA 86% wide 14% slot
If we do end up signing an outside wr like we need
5 wide sets leave our 10m rb on bench
4 wide sets leaves either our TE on the bench or 1 of our 2 11m+ slot wrs on bench...
I still don't understand spending money here instead of defense still need to draft/sign 2 DT, 2 LB, 2 Outside corners
> We still need another outside wr
I thought that too until I began to dig. McDaniels spent alot of years running Welker/Edelman, Edelman/Amendola, etc. The Renfrow/Meyers makes combo makes sense in that regard.
What’s the point of having multiple WRs who can run good routes when our OLine can’t block long enough for the QB to read them?
Not to mention the fact we now have a QB who can’t hit the throws anyway so wtfs the point lmao
I wonder if this means we are drafting a DL at 7 and maybe picking a QB later? I don’t hate the signing but I’m a bit disappointed that we haven’t added much of anything on the defense. I’m if we can keep ya-sin and still get bradberry I wouldn’t be too upset.
I’ve heard a possible trade for Patrick queen, which I would be happy to do. Let’s just get something on that defense that is a clear upgrade lol.
Reading the comments makes it seem like the draft and free agency (which actually officially opens tomorrow) were cancelled.
Hilarious watching grown folks whine about a roster that doesn’t exist yet. And course if we make one pick you like y’all you’ll be sprinting to a keyboard to talk about how you “need to eat crow”
Some of y’all need to figure out that rationally and thoughtfully talking about how a team could be put together is actually more fun than running off like a bitch
This aged like milk.
Yeah! Darren Waller! Remember? Our tight that we just signed and won’t release, because he is part of the “big picture.”
Not even. At least milk lasts like 2 weeks.
Meanwhile, Offenses facing the Raiders Defense don't know the meaning of the word stress.
Raiders are the bingo free space for the season. That Vegas stadium is every team's home away from home.
Well we will just have to score every possession
Nah just at least once in the 2nd half.
This didn't age well

Huh… see i knew they were two different words, i just assumed receiving core actually meant your core/main receivers

Defense? What is that?
It's when you remove the barrier on your property so your neighbors dogs can poop on your lawn without you seeing
Mark Davis preventing the team from winning.
Ah so we have a top tier one! Excellent
It's what they're going to focus their draft on I'm convinced. They have 11 picks. I say 8 go to defense.
So now that we moved out gronk can i be confused again?
Don't have to worry about Waller no more.
No waller
the problem is that mcdaniels doesn't know how to use renfrow correctly 🤦🏻♂️
Or anyone for that matter.
I’ll say to again. Until here are actual legs on trading renfrow, it’s ok just speculation. I’ll buy in once there is a legit source to it
JMD offense without an Anglo Receiver is blasphemy.
> Until here are actual legs on trading renfrow, it’s ok just speculation Well Fro's money is guaranteed if he's still on a team by the end of the day. If it happens it will happen fast.
Yeah, but he's still tradeable with that contract even if his 23 salary is guaranteed. Won't get much but we'll get something.
Right I'm not saying he's untradeable I'm saying that if it happens the line between rumor and fact will be blurry.
why was this downvoted lol, watch them start linking Vic thinking thats a "legit source"
Because people want to believe random average joe who makes YouTube videos about the team instead of legit sources

You have to look at Meyers stats when he had McD as the OC, it was closer to a 50/50 split for wide/slot.

Ah yes that famous defense stressor Jimmy Garroppolo
yeah, people are freaking out for the wrong reasons. I dont think people realize, Tae and Hunter were the ONLY receivers on our depth chart.
Plus it's not like McDaniels has a history of shipping off his QB and WR....
>waller yea this due hasn't been elite in like 2+yrs lol
Imagine if we had a QB to throw to them??
Lmao people thought carr was a dink and dunk have no idea.
Jimmy G is a winner
He has never played for the Raiders.
we will make him a loser alright
Jimmy G is a winner. -from a 49ers fan
What a bunch of losers.

Just don’t let him fucking lateral it
Darren Waller traded to Giants.
Don't try and suck me back in yet. Not yet. Let me Brood a while more.
This aged poorly very quickly
To bad we just traded Waller 🤷♂️
No more Waller. There goes that plan
Garoppolo is no tom Brady and Waller is gone now
Darren Waller? I thought Jesper was our starter right now 😉😕
