McClain flamed out after a couple of years with the Raiders, wound up in Dallas a couple years after that, then flamed out there.... in only one year.

Not a pattern I want to see repeated on this team.

I agree it's too bad Crawford had to go. He's far from being a stiff, IMHO, and provided depth at a position that needed it.

Wow.  Polite was mocked high, had a pretty shitty week at the combine which lowered his draft stock, but to be cut has to be a surprise.  

He was the Jets top pick too, they didn't have a 1st or 2nd round pick.  

The Jets new GM didn't draft Polite. According to the local paper, he didn't do anything on the field and was late to meetings.

He just sounds like an idiot. I'd let him stew for a year before signing him. Let him grow up a bit.

Cowpoke releasing Rolando McClain. Any interest?

If he can he stay off drugs and out of cop cars long enough to actually contribute to a team maybe. 

He hasn't played in 3 years.

THERE IT IS!  THE FIRST "CONVERT HIM TO TE" COMMENT OF THE YEAR!!!!

 

CONGRATULATIONS!  You win nothing. 

With his size and toughness, a switch to pass-catching tight end might give him a better shot at having a productive NFL career.

Sorry, not the first.

Here at x4.  No one gives a shit about wtf.com

Fair enough.  Guess I should have used a better reference.

Good job Cooter.

The Raiders will impose additional remedies? Is fining him really a remedy? Aren't the Raiders paying AB upwards of $30mm guaranteed? As long as he plays in the regular season he'll get his $$, which make these $15000 fines in preseason like pocket change.



Really surprised Mayock didn't see this coming. I mean, he went from player, to broadcaster, to GM. That surely had to get him ready for dealing with players, right?

Anyone wanna bet he claims his account was hacked?

Yes, it's pocket change. The 15K in fines is the equivalent of fining someone making 50,000 a year 25 dollars. It's the equivalent of having to pay for half a tank of gas.

Man that team is officially tanking for a QB next year. 

They may get both Fitzpatrick and Rosen killed this year. They had the lowest ranked OL in the league BEFORE they traded away their starting LT.

Addition by subtraction for the Steelers.

That is hilarious. How in the world did Mayock ever get a GM position.

To be fair to Mayock, that organization was a disaster before he got there though this particular decision isn't looking good. 

Reggie McKenzie did about as well as one can do there, but it just seems like it's just a cesspool of awfulness that even a talented management type can fail in.

"He threatened to punch Mayak in the face". Jeebus. 

if there was one team that is supporting that guy, its the raiders...biting the hand that feeds you, not smart.  this guy needs some humble pie, remember what you are outside of football...

Mayock got the GM job because nobody....and I do mean NOBODY else wanted it with Gruden. So happy Reggie Mac got out of that cesspool
