After 30 tweets about the interview before showing the video makes the video pointless.

They didn't start streaming the video until after it had happened and the mediots had live-tweeted it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

There's more than just those tidbits. Spytek has his understudy answering some questions. I don't remember his name. Spykid, maybe.

With only three safeties on the roster, Spytek said the team will need a few more at the position.

"It's something we've got to attack, and I'm glad the class looks the way it does."

Stark mentioned the safety class being deep, too.

I know I've dogged DT probably more than most here and other forums, but man, if they can harness that H-W-S he possesses? Whew boy!!

He was a day 3 pick. If he can become a viable WR4, I'll be content. Even if he can't get open, he's got the size advantage to reel in those high & outside sideline passes Gay Guevara excels at.

#Raiders GM John Spytek on how they evaluate QBs coming out of college

"Not a lot of college offenses look like NFL offenses right now... are they smart, can they process a lot of information quickly, do they make good decisions with the football, are they tough, are they good teammates, can they throw the ball at a level that's required to play quarterback in the NFL? Are they athletic, can they improvise, or do they have to play in the pocket all the time?"

I'm surprised he didn't add "or if they played in the FCS championship game."

Traded back twice in the second round last year and defends it as a good trade and says he's willing to do it again.

Last year's slugs better show something this year.

I have zero faith in Spytek.

He gets an incomplete because of the piss poor coaching we had. We opened the checkbook and have a real coaching staff and some fresh talent brought in.

No more alex cappa types and no leaving rookies on the bench and throwing crap into the fan of nfl snaps.

Should have a better evaluation this year

SpyGuy admitted to mistakes, trying too hard, and going it alone at times, without throwing Pete under the bus. He did not have “his” staff in place, or working for a year under his “process,” meaning being on the same page. Hopefully he does better (he seems more confident) and the feedback from Kubiak & Co. adds (not subtracts) value.

As to trades, I’m a fan. It is how you maximize draft capital (IMO). Obviously, you still need to make good picks.
