Raiders in the front office were probably like come on down and we'll smoke a blunt
Is he any good? I like that he from an SEC school. See, this is why I'll cut Redz a little slack at least he knows how to find come ups. We just need to get rid of this idiot coach and hire a guy that's both smart, bold, and ready for the job. No more lame ducks. 
Good pick up tho, if we get Clowney and add a little front 4 depth then get killers at LB and hawks at corner.

Raiders have soured on Terrelle Pryor?
Matt McGloin continues to start at quarterback for the Oakland Raiders as a healthy Terrelle Pryor sits on the bench.
Pryor has not rocked the boat about wanting to start and there appears to be no plans for the former Ohio State star to move back to the top of the depth chart.
According to Vic Tafur of the San Francisco Chronicle, the Raiders have turned the page on Pryor. The reasons are more than just injuries as the quarterback and the coaching staff are simply not on the same page.
Of course the Raiders can also not be happy with the way Pryor handled his knee injury by keeping it a secret from the coaching staff and then telling reporters about it following a loss.
While Pryor may not be the starter right now things are not better for McGloin.
After a strong start to his tenure as the Raiders starting quarterback McGloin has also come back down to earth. All signs point to the Raiders drafting a quarterback early in the 2014 Draft which could come at the expense of Pryor’s roster spot.

Goddamn it this team is fukkin stupid. Shoulda just listened from jump street and we'd have two young QBs to work with. Just let Flynn be the whipping boy and take the punishment, let the overall roster get better and give the QBs assignments to improve them going into the next training camp. Tank, get Clowney and a host of defensive specialists, start a real QB competition from OTAs through training camp so that way the best man wins and we don't have this wishy washy back and forth bullshyt. Wasting another draft pick when our defense can't stop shyt is just
This pos head coach just needed a excuse to play Mccac.
They never wanted Pryor from the start. I'm beyond pissed.

Should Raiders target QB in draft?
ALAMEDA, Calif. -- No disrespect to Matt McGloin or Terrelle Pryor, but by now it's fairly apparent that the Oakland Raiders' quarterback of the future is not on their roster.
Especially since fourth-round draft pick Tyler Wilson is gone now, the rookie selected off the Raiders’ practice squad by the Tennessee Titans on Tuesday.
ESPN draft specialist Todd McShay unveiled his 2014 NFL Mock Draft 1.0
on Wednesday and with the Raiders currently sitting at No. 3 overall -- the actual draft is not until May 8 -- McShay selected for Oakland Central Florida quarterback Blake Bortles.
Following then, is McShay’s breakdown of the 6-foot-4, 228-pound underclassman:
The Raiders need to upgrade at the QB position, and even though he isn't the most well-known prospect, Bortles has the potential to be a top-10 pick. In fact, it wouldn't shock me if he ends up going ahead of Teddy Bridgewater.
Bortles has good size, arm strength and accuracy, and has proved he can win from inside the pocket. He also possesses good character and a strong football IQ. A nice bonus is that he's built to last in the NFL because he's big and mobile enough to move around. He isn't Cam Newton, but more of a cross between Joe Flacco and Ben Roethlisberger.

It hasn't been 3 years and the raiders 2013 draft has been a total failure... hayden is trash, wilson probably be a star now and moore seem like the only one showing a little promise..

McShay first mock draft: Raiders pass on Clowney, take QB Bortles
With the college regular season over and the NFL season almost over, the mock drafts are going to start pouring in. One of the more prevalent mock drafts fans tend to follow is that of ESPN's Todd McShay. He and their long time NFL draft analyst, Mel Kiper Jr go back and forth with who they think each team will take.
There are two games left in the season which means the draft order has yet to be settled. Even still, where each team will pick is narrowing.
The Raiders have a great many needs again, just as they did last season. Many believe quarterback must be the primary focus for the Raiders with what looks to be a top five or even top three pick come April.
McShay is among those who believe that to be the case, and with Central Florida quarterback Blake Bortles declaring that he will enter the draft, McShay believes that's who the Raiders will take.
Here is what he had to say:
Analysis: The Raiders need to upgrade at the QB position, and even though he isn't the most well-known prospect, Bortles has the potential to be a top-10 pick. In fact, it wouldn't shock me if he ends up going ahead of Bridgewater.
Bortles has good size, arm strength and accuracy, and has proved he can win from inside the pocket. He also possesses good character and a strong football IQ.

The curious thing is he still has Jadeveon Clowney on the board when the Raiders pick which means he believes the Raiders will forego their glaring need for a pass rusher and go with who he believes to be the top quarterback on the board.
He has Louisville quarterback,Teddy Bridgewater, going number one overall to the Texans with the Rams taking offensive tackle Jake Matthews at the number two spot.
He is going with the SOS that has the Raiders picking third even though their SOS with the final two games factored in has them picking fourth should the top four teams not win another game. He has the Jaguars taking Texas A&M quarterback, Johnny Manziel, with the pick immediately after the Raiders and the Falcons taking Clowney with the fifth overall pick.
Would the Jags still take Manziel with the third pick if Bortles were still on the board in McShay's view? Or with Bortles gone would the Raiders take Clowney? Who knows. There's still two games to play in the NFL season and a whole college bowl season yet to play. But it's fun to ponder none the less.

If they dont get Clowney or another beast pass rusher in the first round
This draft should be all about o-line, d-line, linebackers, and one more young safety for Woodson to coach up. Get all the other shyt through free agency especially corners. Get a corner that's already proven. Can't gamble on these corners in the draft, too risky.

Matt McGloin: "I call it a silent alarm"
ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Mark this one in the "small victories" column. And then get out of the way.
Per The Associated Press, the Oakland Raiders last weekend became the first team since the Green Bay Packers in 1986 to commit seven turnovers in a game and not take a sack.
So go ahead, find Vince Ferragamo (two interceptions) and Randy Wright (five picks) and ask those old Packers how their "accomplishment" of Sept. 14, 1986 against the New Orleans Saints stacks up against what Matt McGloin (four interceptions, one lost fumble), Terrelle Pryor (one pick) and Taiwan Jones (a lost fumble on a kick return) did versus the Kansas City Chiefs fares.
For one thing, those Packers lost, 24-10, while the Raiders were bludgeoned, 56-31.
Or, just get McGloin’s read on not being sacked in a blowout, despite throwing the ball 35 times (as a team, Oakland attempted 41 passes; Green Bay threw the ball 59 times in that game 27-plus years ago).
"I call it a silent alarm," McGloin said Wednesday. "Obviously, against the Chiefs, that was something we were prepared for. We knew they had great pass rush. I think they sacked us nine or 10 times the last time we played them."
Initially, Pryor was ruled to have been sacked 10 times on Oct. 13 at Arrowhead Stadium, though the number was later reduced to nine after a review.
"Our protection plan was solid last week, but as a quarterback standing in there, you have a clock in your head," McGloin added. "It kind of gets to a point where it’s, ‘OK, I’ve had this ball for a few seconds now, I need to get rid of it, or I’m going to get hit pretty hard here.’
"So you need to be decisive. You need to know what you’re doing on each play. You need to know what your progressions are and what routes are good against what coverages. There’s always a clock in the back of your mind."
And, as the saying goes, time waits for no one.
So speaking of time, how long ago was Sept. 14, 1986?
The then-Los Angeles Raiders fell that day at Washington, 10-6, as Jay Schroeder beat Marc Wilson, and Darrell Green, whose son Jared is now a practice squad receiver for Oakland, picked off Wilson in the end zone with 30 seconds remaining.
Neither Schoeder nor Wilson was known for having internal clocks. Big arms, yes. But not internal clocks.
Someone needs to repeatedly smack him with a blunt object
