Believe nothing you read about draft plans. Wait till draft day and see what shakes out. I read an article about all the propaganda they put out to hide their plans.:geauxtige
Excellent point. Much of this is just the beginning of the draft day dance. You think these "private" comments are done without purpose? If they want JR, they want him as cheaply as possible and this is one way to get a leg up on salary negotiation. Believe me, if they want Calvin Johnson, they'll eventually leak something negative about him too. And don't forget Hurricane, it's not Lane Kiffin really calling the shots, it's Al Davis.
I'll root for JM no matter what team he lands on (except the Falcons, as I totally despise the Dirty Birds.) I always root for former Tigers, just not the team they land on. In JM's case, I'll pull for him even if he's on the bucs or the panther teams, 'cept when playign the Saints.
I really have mixed feelings about this. I would love to see JR be the first draft pick, but I would hate to see him go with the Raiders.
decent franchise??? browns????:hihi: but i'm with ya, they have a gm who's a JR guy and i think he'd be in a slightly better situation.
Any current team in the NFL is more decent than the Raiders, and that's a fact. Both ways are reasons to be happy, whether it's LSU's first overall pick in 50 years and a big money bonus for JR, or a lower pick to a franchise that will more likely develop JR than kill him. Both sound like win situations.:thumb:
Living in the Bay Area and getting them on TV their defense was not that bad last year. If they will lose Moss for team chemistry , and get a few offensive lineman and receivers to go with him then i can see Jamarcus doing well with the Raiders. Never been a Raider fan but i would pull for JR to do well.
