Jacoby Ford or DHB

[slvr&blck760]

We have a core of wide receivers in place. Who's more important to the Raiders in 2013? DHB had a down season last year, while Jacoby didn't touch the field. The Raiders have potential chain movers in Rod Streater and perhaps Juron Criner. Jacoby will be key in the return game. Are DHB's days in Oakland numbered? Do we release him because of a bad season, after showing significant improvement in 2011? Do we excuse DHB's performance based upon Gregg Knapp's failed play calling, or do we look at his inconsistency overall and save money by releasing him? I think Jacoby stays and DHB is a goner.

The Raiders are in dire need of a slot possession receiver that can run precise routes and know where the sticks are. None of the group seems to be able to do that.

I go with Ford all the way,he needs tweeking in his route running but fights for the ball ,he made Campbell a decent QB when he was on the field.

I wouldn't cry if we kept Ford and we cut DHB. I think Mckenzie and Allen have an ample supply of box cutters at their disposal.

Then we should go after welker. since oakland likes New England players he would be ideal. Keep jacoby for special team duties.

trade the only player we have that gets yards after the carry?, besides reece and the newly acquired streator, you guys are bored! cut it out! i say criner is the odd man out because hagan is even better than him so forget about it...itll be jford, dhb, streator, criner, hagan ,next year get used to it, reggie wont fix whats not broke...

[raider77]

Ford is done here i believe. The guy cant stay healthy why keep him? He had one break out year and hasnt shown much since. DHB its a 50/50 thing with me. I like him and he is a good kid. His production hasnt been there but he has gotten better. If he can restructure and take a pay cut i dont see any reason to get ride of him. its hard to judge the offense guys after last year cause everything took such a big step back.

[Raidaz4Life]

I still like Ford more because he is a more natural fit in the slot and he contributes on what is an otherwise pretty awful special team's unit. DHB is mediocrity at it's finest and nothing that wouldn't be easy to replace although I do like him as a person. Just not crazy about his play on the field.

I agree about Jacoby, I would rather see the Raiders target Danny Amendola.

The smart ones want to keep the player that can`t stay on the field, that`s not shocking. The Oakland Raiders need drastic changes and this isn`t gonna happen without dumping some slugs. Oh ya that includes the qb who hasn`t won more than 4 games in a season since 09, lead the offense to 3 total points the entire season in the first quarter ( a NFL first ), had 2 drives over 5 minutes long the entire season (a NFL first), Oakland currently has no bigger problem than #3 it`s so evident even a caveman could identify this.

Duly noted but I believe Carson Palmer is going to step up and return to form next season.

Ford peaked as a return specialist and receiver his rookie year.

DHB continues to develop. Keep him.

I dislike being down on Palmer but you can`t dismiss all these failures season 1, season 2, season 3, season 4, season 5, season 6, season 7, season 8, season 9, and season 10. Upon us is season 11 and Palmer has 1 playoff game under his belt, I don`t even think he finished the game. What form is he going to step up into exactly? its just exhausting and the Bengal fans are celebrating 2 consecutive playoff appearances immediately after his departure with a rookie.

I`ll give you this, you`re well composed and that`s appreciated.

You maybe Carson Palmer, are you? lol

I don't know why Ford still gets so much praise. He's quickly become the wide receiver version of DMC. A few flashes a talent, but mostly underachieving and injury prone. Luckily be wasn't a 1st round pick like DMC.
