    I'm torn. I like him, but I'd rather keep Holmes if we can keep only one of them.

    ...just read that Roberts led The League in drops. He does have a knack for scoring key touchdowns... Holmes is a tall, rangy type that should be more than serviceable. Being unable to break through for more time on the field is a concern.

    Thats tough... while Roberts led the league in drops, he sure came up clutch and made some big plays. For the right price I would like for them to hold onto him. BUT i think the raiders still need a lot of help on d and would address that too.

    Hired John Pagano as Defensive Assistant Head Coach. Good news for pass rush? Not sure what it means for Norton.

    ...it's a subtle (or not so subtle) message for Norton to get it together. Also, they have an in-house replacement if nothing on defense improves.

    Quick hits:

    - Vegas move could be murky with the Adelson pull out.
    - we play the Pats in Mexico City. MNF?

    Agreed, they need to stay in Oakland or there is a great plot of land between Austin and San Antonio they could move to... Hmm I like the sound of Texas Raiders... screw Jerry and the cowboys.

    This "move" is a fiasco.

    Yep, Adelson and Goldman Sachs. Fans IN Oakland are probably relishing it.

    Bad news (sorta)

    ...and we have the 4th toughest schedule while the Patriots have the 12th (?).

    Good news (yes sir)

    Donkeys...Chiefettes...LA Chargers ahead of us.

    We'll see. We're no suckahs; I think we can see 10+ wins again and make an actual showing in the playoffs.

    So if Roberts leaves...Victor Cruz at the slot? G-Men released him today.

    I really want to retain Holmes, especially if Roberts is leaving. What kind of money would Cruz be worth? He's been wildly inconsistent, but when he was on, he was a top WR.
