I would go defense, defense, defense starting with Star Lotulelei.
I think that if the Raiders went to a 3-4 with Star at NT and Houston as DE, the DL would see huge progress.

I don't wish bad upon anybody.
However, 5 years from now, when McClain is flat broke (which I can guarantee is going to happen based on the fact that he will never get another big contract,...
Ummmm....Stanford Routt, Tommy Kelly, Kamerion Wimbley, Kevin Boss, DeAngelo Hall.
No matter what scheme he plays in - you have to have the NFL level talent to succeed.
NFL Films' Greg Cosell on McClain:
"He's been awful...arguably the worst starting 4-3 middle linebacker in...
Quoting the original post in this thread, "This is the NFL, it moves too fast to "Have a Plan.""
That is possibly the most incorrect, false, flat-out misguided statements EVER on PSD! Please read...
Memo to Raider fans who still are lamenting the ZBS. Its here to stay, Knapp or no Knapp.
Reggie is a ZBS proponent, bottom line. One of the main reasons Knapp was hired is b/c he is a ZBS guy. So...
Was Knapp's playcalling conservative, yes. But I think it had to be.
No Moore and Ford to stretch the field and open things up for DMC's big runs. we know the Texans offense that Knapp has...
First - As somebody else here pointed out - nobody runs a pure west coat offense anymore. Bill Walsh's offense no longer is around and the closest thing we last saw of the pure west coast was...
Any GM in this league would laugh at loud at the idea of firing Hue after where he has this team considering what he's had to deal with.
Raider fans who want to fire Hue show exactly why they're...
This is one of the worst ideas I've heard in a while.
So the Raiders should fire the 1st year head coach who is 7-5 through the first 12 games of a season in which the he has dealt with:
1)...
i'm not saying Hue is taking the loss. I'm saying that he wants to get CP in the game and get acclimated andfight like hell to get the win - but even if the Raiders lose - it is still better in the...
What's so deceiving about Palmer's TD/INT ratio from last year is that his receivers were really a problem.
After a 3 Int game from Carson last season, ESPN did a breadown with Jawarski, or Hodge,...
I think Boller should start vs. Chiefs, but this is my guess as to why Palmer may start this week.
Maybe Hue is thinking - Put him in there, get him the game experience and even though we may take...
Gutsy move...i love it.
If ever there was a guy who needed a change of scenery, its Palmer.
Just two years ago he QB'd the Bengals to a 10-6 record and swept their division (yeah, the one with...
Bad call buddy.
You just missed one of ther most exciting and emotional Raider victories in years.
i was running around my living room yelling and jumping. You were walking your dog.
Got a...
It just goes to show you how much larger than life a man is when even though you know he is 82 and in poor health, you are still stunned to read the news of his passing...that you just cant believe...
Miller is a stud and one of the better young TE's.
But Seattle's offense is so pathetic, he is goung to be wasting his ability there until they get an NFL QB.
He shouldve taken a little less...
My thoughts based on what has happened first two weeks:
Jets: definitely a winable game. They had to comeback to beat a Dallas team that went alomost lost and had to go to OT against a mediocre...
No sour grapes...I've been saying this since the schedule came out.
We all know that road wins are tough to come by in the NFl, no matter who you play.
To make a west coast team come off a...
ESPN article stated:
"A Raiders source told ESPN.com's John Clayton that the team is looking at Pryor more as receiver than a quarterback at the NFL level."
Interesting.
Interesting, just read ESPN article which stated:

I'm not saying I agree with this pick but, one of the NFL analysts on ESPN had a very interesting point about 3 weeks ago on NFL Live, I believe.
I'm paraphrasing, but he said Cam Newton was just...
First - Steve Smith is not slow - he has 4.4 speed - look it up (and maybe even more important for a WR, he had the fastest time for a WR thru the first 10 yards of the 40 yard dash at the combine in...
Proof as to why you don't pick a QB to be your starter after the 1st round.
If you look at the top 12 rated QB's for last season:
9 of 12 were first round picks (I lumped Brees in as a 1st...
If reports are to be believed, there will potentially be 7 QB's drafted before Raiders make their pick at #48. (Newton, Gabbert, Locker, Dalton, Ponder, Mallet, and Kaepernick)
This is great news...
