He'll say anything because of the backlash he's getting from not re-signing them. He wasn't aggressive in trying to re-sign them and then he low-balls Veldheer.

Damn, you seriously seem to miss Al Davis more than his widow and son, I swear. Every chance you get, you love to dog on the Raiders Mgmt. Reggie tried ALL SEASON last year to re-sign Houston but they could never agree on his value. Which translates to, "overpay me if you want me to stay". Houston pretty much concluded the 2013 season admitting that his days as a Raider were probably over.

Veldheer asked not to be franchise tagged, Reggie gave him what he asked for. Raiders made an offer and his camp didn't agree with the valuation. Reggie said, test free agency and let's see what the league thinks your value is at. His camp never got the chance to negotiate with the Raiders because he fired his agent and had his brother represent him. In that interview with Reggie, he alluded to the fact that Veldheer's people were new to the negotiating game. Based on what they offered Saffold, Veldheer took LESS MONEY to play in ARZ because he and his brother had their feelings hurt. I hope he and Carson Palmer live a happy life together and knock out the Niners in their quest for the playoffs.

Time to move on, but cats love to dwell on "should have kept Hue", "should have let Pryor play", but never once they bring up the egregious cap and franchise killing moves Al Davis made the past decade... like convincing Javon Walker to steal his money after he tried to thank Al and tell him he didn't have it left in him

How much money does Oakland have tied up in old players?

what do u consider old.. these current deals with the new players are no more than 3 years.. the team is cap free for years now..

my only problem with this team is tarver at defensive coordinator because he doesnt like to blitz to much ..

the schedule is a beast but if i see 6 to 7 wins and the team is competitive i will be mad, but i will say not bad .

my fellow raiders fans u need to give up on that pryor shyt.. dude is not a starter in this league

i can't judge tarver just yet since he worked with little talent. raiders need to sign another cornerback above all else, and i hope wilfork and pats can't reconcile. raiders would be wise to throw him a fat 2 year deal that gives him bonuses for staying healthy in the form of roster bonuses throughout the season. after seeing what raji got, i feel like we should have went after him and threw some coin at him... i am excited to see what Sio Moore can do after the additions of Tuck and Woodley on the edge.

Our defense looked pretty nasty at one point during the season. It will be interesting to see how they look with players with actual talent.
