Raiders strongly considering bringing in Beast Mode

Raiders radio announcer Greg Papa said on Thursday that the team had interest in acquiring a retired running back who didn’t play in the NFL last season.
The first name that popped into most heads was likely Marshawn Lynch, who retired from the Seahawks after the 2015 season, and that feeling appears to be the correct one. Adam Schefter and Josina Anderson of ESPN report that the Raiders are “strongly considering” a move to acquire Lynch.
Lynch’s rights still belong to the Seahawks, so bringing him to play in his hometown of Oakland will require either a trade or a release. The former would seem more likely as the Seahawks would surely prefer to get compensation for Lynch’s rights.
There’s also the matter of Lynch’s interest in returning to play, although it’s hard to believe the Raiders going too far with their consideration of adding Lynch to their backfield if they didn’t have some idea about his willingness to be about that action again after sitting out last season.

Marshawn Lynch is in shape. He's thought about playing. Raiders are interested. But would the #Seahawks actually trade him? We'll see.

Athletes should either not make impulsive "retirement" decisions or stick with their decision. Otherwise the word will cease to have any meaning.

If the Raiders trade for him, it would be charity for the Seahawks. Seattle would essentially have to release him with their cap situation.

Dallas might suck they've lost their entire defense

By the way, #Raiders inquired about #BeastMode last year & a trade nearly happened. Marshawn decided to stay retired. We’ll see this year

2 issues for #Raiders on Marshawn: 1. They don’t want to give up picks. Maybe a cond. 7th. Maybe. 2. They are saving money for Carr/Mack

Kinda like these kids in high school "committing" to certain colleges to play ball. Good luck with changing any of that.

Would help Carr out big time.
