I like to think of him as an extra high round draft pick for next year. ? Yes, he is sorely missed right about now. 32 minutes ago, freddyjj said: I am not sure where Raiders played him (3T?) but was a 5T DE on the Strong side for Chargers. Quote from Raiders site when they signed him Raiders coach Jon Gruden agrees, saying, “Liuget is a legitimate 3-technique and can also be a penetrator as a nose … he gives us another veteran player with inside pass-rush ability. We are thrilled to have him,” according to the Raiders’ official website. Apparently there were limits to the thrill...... .

msw2112 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I have no idea, but perhaps the Raiders found other options when he was rehabbing from his injury and decided to release him. It's a good signing for the Bills. We clearly need help on the DL and this guy has been a really good player in the past (and has a 1st round pedigree). The deal is only for 1 year, so if he doesn't pan out, we can move on from him without future cap implications and if he does pan out, we've improved the team.

timekills17 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Apparently the Raiders saw him in the 3T role in their 4-3, more along the way he played as a DE in the 3-4. Raiders fans seem to think he was decent when he played, but really best as a run stopper (!) which they didn't need as much as a 3T type penetrator. https://www.reddit.com/r/oaklandraiders/comments/dpai8w/dt_terrell_mcclain_added_to_raiders_roster_along/ He was suspended for the first four games last year (2018), and then had an injury, but was still the Chargers "Walter Payton Man of the Year" nominee. Was due for ~$10M (resigned by Chargers in 2015 for 5 years at ~$11M/year.) Picked up by the Raiders in FA but released about a week ago. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001017906/article/chargers-wont-exercise-option-on-dt-corey-liuget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have an LB on the PS but they only have 5 LB's on the roster (3 starters 2 depth) kind of weird but they needed to make a move to strengthen the middle of the defense.

Mat68 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) Bring Oliver in on passing downs right now. Oliver is a unique guy. The defense has to know his quickness is/will be exploited. Some good runs are being run right behind him. Good signing if healthy. Need another body inside. Edited November 6, 2019 by Mat68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver was blocked out of the hole by a single guy on most snaps. Glad to see somebody knows what they're looking at... The takes on here are so ridiculous sometimes.
