The Raiders issue wasn't paying these guys and front loading contracts.

It was the fact that they're acting like a win now team, rather than a team that needs a serious rebuild.

With Denver, chiefs, and the Chargers around they shouldve been getting young guys longer deals to get them on more of a favorable position in a few years.

Almost like what Idzik is doing here.

Focusing on the draft, and young free agents.

And only using older guys when they're very cheap and short term low guarantee deals

That's pretty much the same thing i was saying.

However, to be somewhat fair to McKenzie, i forgot they traded away a bunch of their 2012 picks before he got there. So he really only had last year's draft and whatever this year's yield. Trading a pick for Matt Flynn (and Schaub) and the Tyler Wilson draft pick reinforce that he's an idiot though. And all you have to do is hear him speak to know that. He sounds like a future CTE specimen

The penalty for the cap floor is weird, after four years the team has to pay the current players whatever they're short. Big freaking deal.

It's not horrible but as a fan it'd be such a waste of the cap. Instead kf signing a FA or re-signing your own you end up just giving money away

If both McFadden and Jones-Drew stay healthy, their rushing attack will be alright. 

I expect Schaub to be a god at checking the ball down.  Nobody will be blocking for him.

Maurice Jones-Drew's three-year contract with Oakland has a base value of $7.5 million with $1.2 million guaranteed.

The only guaranteed portion is Jones-Drew's 2014 base salary of $1.2 million. There was no signing bonus, and MJD could be released next offseason with no ramification on the Raiders' cap. It's telling that Jones-Drew couldn't do better than this on the market. Oakland now has him "locked up" through age 31.

Wow, I would have been fine beating that number.

I don't think anyone is, but being in a RBBC lessens the impact and allows an older RB to last a little longer.

Neither am I, but MJD at what is essentially a one-year deal for the vet minimum?  Heismanberg pointed out that he's been one of the best pass protecting backs in the league for years.  He could have been exactly what LT was for us.

I would have been ok with him but I'm not upset we didn't get him either.

Also, I think LT was a way better player overall.

Yeah, LT was one of the five best backs in the history of football.

we signed LT when we were contenders.

MJD would merely be a stopgap player while we rebuild.  But at that figure, hard to believe we didn't bring him in if we were interested.

Well if Peyton wins a ring and retires after this year, Oakland could very well be a top 3 team in their division

Baffled.  They are dead-set on being competitive in 2014, and 2014 alone. 

The tragedy is that they're still getting steamrolled on paper with their roster.

[reuben]

Profootballtalk.com reports the Raiders are leery about signing free agent DeSean Jackson.

GM Reggie McKenzie is reportedly worried about Jackson's reputation as a me-first player who can't be controlled. And considering the Raiders could be in for another long season of piling up losses, it might not be the best idea to have Jackson around throwing a fit. Jackson seems destined to land with the Redskins. He'll continue his visit with Washington on Tuesday.

They're just dragging out the process so DeSean will be a few days older when they finally sign him.
