Derek Carr’s thoughts on if the #Raiders were going to take a QB:
"When I watched the draft there was like -47% chance they were going to draft somebody (QB) in my mind. Hopefully those guys didn’t have their hopes up. But it wasn’t going to happen.”

Derek Carr said he received assurances from Raiders brass about his status as franchise QB before draft. Believed there was a “negative 47% chance” team would take one. “I’m not going anywhere. This is my team, and it will be for the next however long I want to play.”
^- Dude needs to zip it. He's acting like he just had the greatest year ever. Shut your mouth and show it on field.
#Raiders Jon Gruden, on Brown missing the first day of voluntary OTAs: “Hopefully we’ll see him here in the next couple of days. He’s been working extremely hard, learning our offense....but in the meantime, we have plenty of balls to throw and plenty of receivers to throw to.
^- Brown is stud WR. No issues with him missing OTAs, but no question the guy is a prick prima dona WR.
LT Kolton Miller: "I know I have a job to do and I know last year wasn't good enough. There were a lot of problems with that. I'm expected to be better and I will be better."
Kolton Miller “happy to be staying at left tackle.” Expects better results now that he is healthier, stronger. He is at 328 after being 310 at last year’s Combine. #Raiders
^- No shit. You were a train wreck. Good thing he bulked up.
Doug Martin said he’s “ready to mentor and to push” Josh Jacobs
^- Really don't want DM getting any real snaps. He was ok last year but the fumbles were an issue.
Brandon Parker has bulked up considerably. Working as swing tackle, and Gruden says he’ll be given opportunities to get on the field. “He may play left guard. Who knows?”
^ He was a swing tackle last year. He swung the door wide open to the QB. Until further notice, an overdrafted reach. Best case scenario: he's an average backup.
