NickyJ Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 We could probably get by with Bradford as a backup here. All he'd have to do is hand off he ball to AP and that would be it. Then again, Tress Way can probably do that and is still a better passer. I guess the Bills, Raiders, and Jaguars could all be in the market for Bradford. All of them are trash, none of them could really be any worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommandB11 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 1 hour ago, KillBill26 said: Bruce Irvin cut by the Raiders. His role has been reduced recently, but Gruden is quoted as saying it's due to not being a scheme fit in the 4-3 because he is an edge rusher, which is exactly what we could use right now. Carries about a 4 million dollar price tag the rest of this year and then a 9 million dollar hit for next year. But of course we could cut him at any point with no penalty. Might be worth the waiver claim, but who would get cut? the fact that the Raiders didn't want him doesn't mean anything to me, because I think Gruden is just absolutely ruining that team and chasing good players out of town. Considering his Super Bowl came due to Monte kiffin's defense, Jon Gruden may be the most overrated coach in history. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2804315 https://www.google.com/amp/s/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/11/02/bruce-irvin-played-only-nine-defensive-snaps-against-49ers/amp/ Id take Irvin....

HTTR I doubt he clears waivers, someone will take him. He could be used as a situational pass rusher, at a cost of about 4 million. I think quite a few teams would like to add him. Since we are picking towards the back end with a 5-2 record, the skins probably don't have a shot. But he would definitely have a role on this team.

ShredSkins Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 We should sign Bradford just so we have the Oklahoma Sooner offense and Alabama defense. The ultimate college team. (joking of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Open to signing guys who can help now and won't hurt the cap next year. Not going to pretend I understand why Irvin wasn't a fit and productive in Oakland. Then again. Nobody seems be in Oakland right now. Defense has been great at times. Need to keep getting to the QB a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically this means nobody would even offer a 7th rounder for him when the trade deadline came and went. Guess you can make a short list of teams that wouldn't take him on waivers with this consideration. Redskins should 100% put a waiver claim on him. NFL.COM Unlike those roster moves, the Raiders reap nothing from releasing Irvin, which comes just days after the trade deadline. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Oakland was willing to take a late-round draft pick in exchange for Irvin, but the end's remaining $3.7 million salary proved to be a roadblock to acquiring that compensation. Given that, Pelissero reports Irvin is likely to clear waivers and become a free agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyst Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I’m not saying Jon Gruden is a good coach but I also don’t diagree with his moves. That Raiders team wasn’t going to legitimately compete so I understand the trades/releasing of players. Except for the anomaly of a good season 3 years ago, they have been mediocre at best. I’d also go ahead and get rid of Carr if I could get a high draft pick back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be against him being here at the right price though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butters20 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 It's clear defense is our strength. We may as well go all in with it. We should bring in a speed rusher, whether it's galette or Irvin. Add another tool to our toolbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malapropismic Depository Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I was never fully on the Dez train, but I am now. Desperate times have come, which require desperate measures. It can't get any worse. There is still a reasonable chance at playoffs, but only if we make the right moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints are playin the best football right now, so if they believe he could help a team on the way to the Super Bowl, and they could make room for him on a roster that good, then Dez must have something to offer. He's supposed to workout tomorrow, so nothing is certain yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Dez will likely end up signing with a contender where he can use all that is left in his gas tank as a 3rd WR option. It will maximize what he has left, while still being able to somewhat fly under radars of defenses. I wouldn't mind having him on this roster, however the idea that he is going to come here and all of a sudden it transforms the passing offense is wishful thinking.

Malapropismic Depository Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I didn't say he would transform everything, but he could help. No ONE player is going to transform the team or offense at this point. You fix things a little here and a little there, and the accumulative effect could be the difference between making and not making the playoffs.

justice98 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I dont see how Dez could hurt at this point. If he becomes a problem or is ineffective, cut him. What's the problem? Nobody's signing him to anything more than a one year deal right now to finish the season anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
