you'll have an extra 3rd or 4th round pick to play with in there some where due to turner and Dflo signing FA contracts last year.

not bad list the only thing i disagree with is trading buster davis i think if he wasnt injured he would be a good compliment to rivers i say we trade dobbins in that deal siler and waters are much better :LightsOut:

I'm among those who havn't written Water off yet, but honestly, he hasn't seen the field much after being well over a year removed from his injury. Hopefully it is just that taking longer to heal....because if it's that he's not learning the system as well as they'd hoped - I can't see that improving.

I like your proposed FA signings because they fill needs and are realistic.

The trade of Davis and a 4th doesn't make sense for us - it would be a great trade for the Raiders.

Buster was a 1st round pick but has been injured. Michael Bush was a 4th round pick who has played a little this past season. The Raiders also have Fargas and McFadden and won't be able to hold on to all 3 for very long.

I think Bush can be a very good RB but giving up Buster and a 4th doesn't seem equitable in my book. Rather than trade for Bush, I'd draft a RB like Gartrell Johnson from Colorado State in the 4th or 5th round (he's projected in the 6th round but his stock will go up).

We have one pick in the following rounds as of now: 1,3,4,5,6,7

We'll likely get two compensatory picks in this draft - a 3rd rounder (last pick) for Turner and 5th for D-Flo. I see us picking up a DE in the draft.

We'll have a better idea as to positions of need once free agency begins.

solid idea with needs could work will see after free agency the only thing was Merrimen Resignnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn him

[619-N-702]

I like your thinking and your transactions are fairly realistic and moderate. I see Maualuga as a Top 10 pick. I think he will shine in the combine and gets picked up by CLE/OAK/GB. Personally hes not my favorite player in the draft though.

i disagree... although the raiders do have fargas and mcfadden he knows bush is a talent and a steal in that 4th round he was taken in... i believe thats why they showcased him in week 17 to get his stock up... and i dont like buster davis much... i like vj, chambers, floyd and nanee... our offense uses receivers to go down field if we keep him i wont be upset but i think since the raiders need receivers hes the best to give away... and if we dont need to use an extra pick than great but i think al davis will want more... esspecially to trade within his divison.

Very good moves!!

Canty and Page would make and instant impact

[MacNeil24]

I would love to have Mualauga, but I would rather draft a Right Tackle first round and then maybe make a move for Brandon Spikes to solve out ILB

[LTCRO]

Canty, Page, and scott and draft RB in 1st than in than we have 7 more picks address Oline Dline maybe OLB maybe WR, or kicker a fastttttttt wr that can develop play well on offense and special teams 7 more picks are 3,4,5 and 2 more 5s compensation florence turner could b 3,s or 4s but worst case scenario their 5s and 6 7
