Cornette's Commentary

Look at the schedule and please point out the games where you expect a win.

Most fans would trade a 1st and much more, if need be.

We get it. You hate Zay Jones and you (still) love Watkins. Enough already. Here: https://www.nflshop.com/Mens_Kansas_City_Chiefs_Sammy_Watkins_Nike_Red_Game_Jersey/t-25715803+o-5738+d-901500124+f-0589330+z-9-2835684027?_s=ak1944nfl-pla&sku=10673509

Maybe they'll cut him to make room for Khalil Mack, when they give away the store for him <sarcasm>.

You would also have to change Shaq Lawson to Jerry Hughes. Going from Mack to Lawson is like going from an ultra modern, high-rise penthouse to a log cabin.

Again with this crap?

As I recall, even Kyle had words with him on the field as well.

I'll never forget that dumb penalty Washington took in the home Dolphins game last year, after getting the stop on 3rd and short.

EJ throwing the ball into the hospitality tent is what you would call a "brutal" incomplete pass

<ring! ring!> Gruden: Hello? Beane: Hi, Jon. Brandon Beane here from the Buffalo Bills. Gruden: Hi, Brandon. How are things going for you and Coach McDermott? Beane: Can't complain. Everything's looking good. Gruden: Glad to hear it. What can I do for you? Beane: Well, Jon, it's no secret that there's serious tension between the Raiders and Khalil Mack these days. Gruden: Oh, really? Ha ha ha. Beane: As you might know, Khalil formed a deep bond with the City of Buffalo and Western New York when he was here and he's even been at the University at Buffalo campus working out with their young players. Gruden: Interesting. Beane: Now, the reason I'm calling, is because I wanted to get your thoughts on whether you would be willing to move Khalil for the right price. Given where we feel our team is going, having built on last year's final push to the playoffs, and Khalil's affinity for Buffalo, we believe that a change of scenery would be good for him and beneficial to your team. Gruden: Hmm. Ok. How about...your 1st and 2nd round picks in 2019, your 2020 1st and Jerry Hughes. Does that sound fair? Beane: That sounds more than fair. I didn't sign Hughes to his current deal and he hasn't come CLOSE to double-digit sacks in the last 3 seasons. Gruden: So, do we have a deal? Beane: Deal.

Their offensive line allowed the third fewest sacks in the NFL last season.

If the front 7 can't pressure Cousins, I don't see how the secondary can hold off Diggs, Thielen and Rudolph.

Agreed. That's why, to me. it makes no sense when I see posters say that they would be willing to give up multiple 1sts for Mack when Bosa could very well be in play for us.

They can franchise him again, if they want, and try to get more assets in return for him.

What would you give up for him? A 2019 1st and 2nd, a 2020 1st and Jerry Hughes?

Who would you rather have: Anthony Barr or Khalil Mack?

Diggs and Thielen will have a field day against us.

This needs to stop. Mack is not coming here. Moreover, Beane is NOT going to give up multiple 2019 and 2020 picks to the Raiders for him. Multiple first rounders. You want to give that up to watch Khalil Mack and a bunch of rubes on Sundays?

Thanks, Schopp.

MAJBobby - Beane!!! Call Atlanta and ask what it would take to get Julio Jones (who also missed an entire season with a foot injury and has dealt with injuries as well) Tom Dimitroff - hold my beer

I do thank God that you don't make personnel decisions for this team.

That's really getting old

What if Gruden says "I want a 2019 2nd as well?"

Mack would probably cost 25 to 30M/year.
