Review Of Oakland's Free Agent Signings

[Rays2010]

WR Javon Walker-6 Years $55 Million

Walker's performance in training camp has been best described so far as sub par. Coach Lane Kiffin has been on him about his conditioning, and he has been out performed by several of the lesser stature receivers on the team. With his contract, he is impossible for the Raiders to cut or trade, so this retirement could have been a graceful way for the Raiders and Walker to part ways without damaging the team chemistry.

DT Tommy Kelley-7 Years $50.5 Million

Raiders DT Tommy Kelly is 30 pounds over his playing weight. He gained strength while rehabilitating his knee all offseason, but he also gained plenty of girth. Coach Lane Kiffin has installed special drills specifically designed to force Kelly into game shape.

A combined $105.5 Million wasted.

Where are you fans who believed Oakland was going to make any type of noise this season other than the 8 Raiders fans cheering when Roger Goddell opens the draft by announcing that Oakland is on the clock.

Bad start? Yes

Too early to give a review? Yes.

Let them play through an entire season b4 saying it was wasteful signings.

So you honestly believe that they are going to turn it around this season and play up to what their contracts expect?

That has been the story of the Oakland Raiders for the past 5 seasons now.

As u can see, I'm not a Raiders fan. Yes, the Raiders been sucking for a while, but they have really talented players now. And this is the NFL, u really can never guarantee anything. So that's why it's too early to say it was bad signings and dissing them, even though it was way overpaid contracts, but whatever.

Wow! That is a waste of money. Davis isn't looking to good right now.

[conceptual23]

not really a free agent signing but D. Hall was the wrong aquisition. Hes the greatest pro bowl corner ever to never be able to cover anyone. Oakland fans will soon feel my pain.

[UNETOWNBAYAREA]

9ers will have a better record then them....

[bignicks79]

[Redsoxin09]

How are you going to score on the Raiders?

corners and safetys have crazy talent, two of the best man on man corners in the league.

The linebackers are one of the best and underrated in the league.

The Defensive lineman are great with Tommy Kelly and Derrick Burgess. Also Terdell Sands will clog up the holes.

On the offensive side they have Lane Kiffen, who was behind the offense in USC. He could take care of things.

Raiders are my turnaround team of 2008-09. why not?

Well you see the other teams offense is gonna repeatedly run into the endzone. I don't know why people act like Hall is a top CB. He just isn't. I liked the guy when he came into the league, but he is way overrated, just ask TO who burnt him twice in one game.

Rays2010 you are a ****ing dumbass if your are not a Raiders fan dont post **** talking bad about the Raiders cuz u know nothing.
Sooper you are just as dumb.
Unetownbayarea are you serious the 49ers will be awful this year like 4-12 awful where the Raiders will be anywhere from 7-9 to 9-7. You are really dumb and show it by saying that. The 49ers suck face it Alex Smith is a bust, Vernon Davis is a bust, and Frank Gore is overrated. You guys suck and it will be a while before you get any better.

RAIDERS WILL BE GOOD AND ARE A STARTING A DYNASTY.
