The Raiders are not in any real position to bargain about Flynn's contract. Kolb just got locked up by Buffalo, and Carson Palmer would rather be released over taking a pay cut (some reports have him preferring to be a backup somewhere else over staying in Oakland at $8mil to $10mil a year)...
Just when most of the local talking heads think the idea of trading him seems very remote, a story like this comes along and reinvigorates the issue.
Anyways, my preference would be to keep him on as a back up at this point unless we either get a minimum of a 2nd round pick for him, or he...
I think more will trickle in since Yahoo decided to shut its message boards down. I know that's why I started coming back here more frequently anyways.
I was a bit shocked and freaked out when I heard that we traded for him and what we gave Minnesota, but then calmed down after remembering...
Yeah, I finally found an article on ESPN about it. Looks like it's a 2 year deal from what's out there so far, which probably means we didn't have to pay a boatload to land him :)

Undisclosed pick for now, but pretty good for signing someone back in April we probably had no intention of relying on.
On a side note, is anyone else knocking on wood after seeing Hawthorne get hurt...

Best Seahawks news rumor I've heard all year. I hope it turns out to be true.
I have to go with Flynn-Jackson-Wilson for this reason alone: If Jackson is truly beaten out by Flynn (career backup and unproven starter) and Wilson (unproven rookie), there's just no way they'll bother keeping him. If he's #3 behind 2 unprovens, the coaching staff is essentially saying they...
I think they both did well in general, but still have a bit of work to do. The mistakes they made seemed more like stupid inexperience tricks over any serious flaws, so we'll see what happens as time goes on.
Next week, I expect we'll see T-Jax start and Flynn and/or Wilson in the second...
I'm not sure, but I think Brandon Browner is ready. Gotta hand it to a guy that can pick the ball off under those circumstances and run it back for a pick 6, preseason or not.
While it's true that some of the issues Williams had can be pinned on T-Jax, the bottom line is that he underperformed when compared to guys like Baldwin. Regardless of the differences between the types of WR's they play, it still speaks volumes that the undrafted rookie was being targeted a...
I like the direction our defense has taken, especially given how many late round and undrafted gems are in it :) I don't know if we'll be a top 5 defense with all the new blood we have this year, but hopefully we'll be in the top 10 and be one of the more feared defenses around the league.
On...
