re: How did the Oakland Raiders get so bad?Posted by Sevendust912 on 8/16/13 at 8:54 pm to tigerskin
Horrible drafting.
Russell, McClain, Gallery, Heywar-Bey, Huff are all busts and that is without even looking at their drafts.
At this point, even McFadden is a bust. Dude can't stay healthy.

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Raiders coaches have accepted that Matt Flynn isn't "going to have success throwing longer than 25 yards." Per beat writer Vittorio Tafur, it's been "clear all camp." That's absolutely embarrassing for an NFL quarterback, of course, but not a surprise. We already knew Flynn had one of the weakest, if not the weakest, arm in the league.

Damn, Gallery was a double bust for them?

It probably doesn't matter much that he can 't throw deep
because they can't block long enough for anybody to throw deep.

Hell even Charles Woodson sucked in Oakland.

Maybe sucks is an exaggeration, but he certainly didn't reach his potential with the Raiders. He was amazing in GB.

At least the backups are competitive against other backups
Partly, the Raiders didn't adjust to the "salary cap" NFL, and tried to build there team with the same formula that worked in the 70's and 80's by getting high-priced aging vets which left the little money to build the rest of the team. Couple that with the fact that the scouting dept. was terrible compared to the rest of the league, Al Davis eventually had vendettas against seemingly every coach he hired, and their drafts were atrocious (who gives up a 3rd round pick to draft Terrell Pryor?). This is the culmination of a once great front office man refusing to accept change as he aged, and his sacrificing of the future for years and years in trying to get that one final championship season.

You are a dumbass, Pryor was a supplemental draft pick.

We will never know if Flynn can be good because that line is horrible. Its a shame that McFadden will never amount to shite unless he can escape Oakland pretty quickly.
