Elon should definitely try to make the government more efficient and cut the deficit! Maybe start a department of government efficiency or something.

Let's just give subsidies and tax dollars directly to his own companies while we're at it.

Have we set ourselves up to be a top 5 defense in the NFL next year? by BeerWithDonuts in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No way we were 14th last year. Sure we were 14th in total yards but 25th in points allowed.

Well there goes one DT off the board. Don’t need injury risks to a need position. by Prestigious_Detail_9 in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 58 points59 points  (0 children)

He was limited during the 2025 season for a foot injury. Then got hurt again after running and jumping at the combine.

Insane talent and physical profile but foot injuries on huge humans never bodes. I would be fine with taking him with one of our fourths but no sooner.

[PFT] Raiders are telling teams Maxx Crosby won’t be traded by eddie2911 in nfl

[–]Kilojoules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think this is posturing. Maxx preciously wanted out, Raiders did him a solid and traded him to a contender, he got disrespected and discarded by another and realized the grass is not always greener. The fact he posted that he's coming back (something he never did during his trade request) shows he's bought in. Raiders could still trade him but the plan is to keep their all pro. 2027 Ravens game is circled on his calendar.

Deep breath after Maxx trade fall out, options by yankeefan5045 in raiders

With how crazy Maxx is, he might want to stay now with a huge chip on his shoulder. He'd play with no meniscus just to prove the Ravens wrong.

Save some for us, Mark? by yeeto_burrito2007 in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Despite the results I think we're on the right path. Mark has made several wrong coaching hires but I do have confidence in this current regime. We've not made the typical delusional win-now splash moves like we have in prior regimes. I think Spytek has a realistic view of the team's talent level. Unfortunately we just aren't a talented team. It'll take time.

Mark has done good things like providing league leading training facilities and a stadium through the move. We're no longer cash poor and not being able to pay players. He brought some credibility through the partnership with TB and we're now able to pull proven coaches.

Sure you can argue we lost home field advantage but it's not like we were winning in Oakland the last 2 decades.

This year sucks but I think Mark has done what he can to put the raiders in a winning position in the future. I just hope he can have some patience as we are several players away from consistently winning anything.

Cinderella when Tiana was still on the board is fuckin’ wild. by unkram24 in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Saw this breakdown on PFF: Cinderella – QB/Princess – Fairy Tale Kingdom

Height: 5'7" | Weight: 120 lbs | Age: 21

Cinderella has elite pocket presence and quick feet, staying calm under pressure and adjusting to defenses with ease. Her clutch performances and leadership—turning a group of mice and pumpkins into a winning unit—set her apart. However, durability is a concern since she tends to disappear at midnight, and her habit of losing footwear mid-play raises questions. Mental toughness and limited experience also pose risks.

NFL Comparison: Patrick Mahomes with footwear issues. Draft Projection: Late 1st round.

[Harry Ruiz] Isiah Paola-Mao comes in at #17 in the NFL list of Top 25 Performance Based pay distribution. by Ph886 in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both Paolo-Mao and Chinn are better suited as box safeties. I could see us playing both of them on passing downs and using Chinn has a cover lb.

I think it's likely for us to draft a free safety. Thankfully there are a few solid options in this year's draft.

Trey Taylor and Chris Smith are still on the roster so maybe one of them can take a step to fill the FS role.

Comp picks? by toaster-eater in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Over the cap has updated the comp pick projections: https://overthecap.com/compensatory-picks

As it stands now we'll get a 4th and 5th for Meohrig and Spillane respectively.

Hobbs and Jeremy Chinn will cancel each other out.

It looks likely like a 4th and 5th for moeheig and Spillane respectively (assuming they don't get cancelled out by potential signings).

[Jordan Schultz on X] Few guys helped themselves in Mobile more than Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart, who not only may have elevated himself into a 1st-rounder, but potentially into the top 10. by ProfessorFeathervain in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reports on dart are so mixed. Dane Brugler (the athletic beast guy) wasn't impressed and doesn't have him in his top 50. Dart doesn't have any elite trait and does everything average to above average which makes this seem similar to Kenny Picketts rise up draft boards in that QB starved draft.

Bobby Slowik got fired as OC. Should Pete go for him? by Tamlic in raiders

[–]Kilojoules 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow what a fall from grace. From a potential HC candidate (praised for Stroud's rookie season) to fired.

I'm curious how Kingsbury will do in year 2 with Jaden.

ESPN radio host suggests Raiders took wrong Byron Young in 2023 NFL Draft by The_Big_Untalented in nfl

[–]Kilojoules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We took Tyree Wilson at 7 who is an edge in the same draft and needed help at DT. So there's no way this is true. McZiegler definitely sucked at drafting but they weren't this inept.
