Seanbillsfan2206 Posted August 24, 2018 Posted August 24, 2018 This just needs to happen. But it won’t because we just can’t have too many nice things

lookylookyherecomescookie Posted August 24, 2018 Posted August 24, 2018 Beane and McDermott have stressed that they want team first guys. High character locker room leaders that absolutely love the game. I can't see where a guy not reporting and holding out while under contract fits that profile. This is not a comment on whether he should be holding out, what his value is, if he is underpaid, etc., just doesn't seem to be a McBeane kind of guy. 1

He actually could have a huge say because no team is trading away a 1st rounder for somebody they can’t sign long term. That said, I’d think he’d be alright signing with any team willing to give him a huge contract. 1

I see Chuckie fired in 2-3 years. Not so sure about that. The Raiders are leaving for Las Vegas soon, and all the glitz and glamour of that will blind Davis to how the team does. I think Gruden will get a good amount of time to succeed.

Mack should have been paid the highest defensive player contract a while ago, or atleast whatever Von Miller is making.

I get the feeling that he would want to play for this team.
Rico Posted August 24, 2018 Posted August 24, 2018 What if the Raiders insisted that EJ was part of the trade? 1 1 11

I suspect Beane is trying to get them to take a second, plus Hughes or Shaq I agree with this. I would not be surprised at all if he gets traded for a second. It will be hard for any team to fit his salary under their cap.

Big C Posted August 24, 2018 Posted August 24, 2018 1 minute ago, mannc said: I agree. Not that much of a drop off from Mack to Hughes. But imagine having both. Then you have Murphy and Yarbrough rotating in and Mack can play off the ball. 1

I think the Raiders wouldn't value Hughes as anything more than a throw in. The Raiders I imagine would probably come in asking for a 1st and 3rd in 2019 and a 2nd in 2020. If Mack wasn't demanding such a huge contract I might bite but that's a lot of money and draft capital to give up for one player. Even if you got the deal down to a 1st and 4th in 2019 plus a 2nd in 2020 that's still significant draft capital. I hear you but it is dependent on what the other teams can afford too.
