2020 Offseason Roster

Would anyone bitch about drafting an all pro OG?

Becton can play guard and swing out if anyone gets hurt

Becton and Trent side by side would be a fucking wall

at 12? yes. We have desperate need for a #1 WR and there should be at least one available at that pick. at 19? I'd take a swing but it would be at the expense of another huge need.
 
The chance that Gabe actually takes a *paycut* is slim/none. If you create space against the cap on an existing contract, it's almost always the way the Raiders restructured Hudson's contract. That is to turn base salary or non-guaranteed roster bonus into a prorated signing bonus. This just spreads the hit against multiple cap years. But this also leads to further cap liabilities (i.e. dead cap) in future years. No way the Raiders tie themselves to Gabe further. And most agents are loath to *remove* money from contracts.
:(
 
I don't think we would lose a thing going from Gabe Jackson at 9.6 million to say John Simpson for 500k.

50+ games at Clemson at OG. We know Mayock watched the CFB at least.
Mostly just depth.

if one of the tackles was a bonafide stud at G then yeah. I wouldn’t want to draft a tackle that high that wouldn’t fit well at G though.
 
sure. but the dropoff from ruggs/jeudy/lamb to mims is... fairly large.
Is it? This is a brutally tough position to evaluate and none of these guys are Julio, AJ, or Megatron. It depends on your offense and what you’re looking for. Jefferson is probably a good slot, but I don’t see him as a sure thing on outside, and some of the size speed freaks are ranked lower. I like Juedy and won’t hate the pick, but I see more Calvin Ridley than devonte Adams.

I think Mims is a monster.

One caveat being that I rank every receiver in the first round every year.

I like Mims too, he has all the attributes- he just lacks separation.
 
LESTER COTTON TIME baby!

Had him pegged as a 6th rd'er in my mock-

I thought Jordan Devey played outstanding in the limited time he did play.. Shame he blew out his ACL.. he's 33, might be damaged goods, but man he looked real good in this system.. wonder if the Raiders bring him back for another 1 year deal if he checks out medically
