Lupz27 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Raiders use a 3rd round pick On Terrell Pryor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I called that exact thing, talking about it with friends over the weekend. I said everyone rates him as a 4th\5th round value, so the Raiders will be the high bidder with a 3rd round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I figured he'd go for a 5th, and when I saw the headline that he had gone in the 3rd I was surprised, and then I saw it was to the Raiders, and I was no longer surprised. That seems like a very appropriate fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sources say no other team was prepared to use a pick higher than a 5th round, so if the Raiders wanted him they would have to use a 4th rounder to make sure they would get him but they traded there 4th round pick fir Jason Cambell so they had to use the 3rd to make sure they got him.

Lupz27 Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 On another note I would really like to see the Jets use a 6th or 7th on this McAdoo kid 6'6" 250 but his skills are really an unknown could be a freak and a steal or could suck but mist 6th and 7th rounders do anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doggin94it Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Adding him to an offense that already has the best WR in the NFL (Chaz Schillens, just wait til he's healthy) and most explosive FB in the league is just unfair . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonehands Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I think Prior is probably about a 4th round value as a receiver/QB like Brad Smith. Smith had more experience at the position prior to his draft, but Prior ran a much faster 40, so I would put them on par. The Raiders spending a 3rd rounder is a slight reach, but shows they really wanted him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boozer76 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Pryor is the type of project that should have gone to a team that can afford to use a draft pick on a luxury player. A place like NO, NE, IND, etc,, where they have a QB that will give this kid 4 years to learn and occasionally step in for a Wildcat formation play. OAK is gonna shove him right in there and kill any chance of him succeeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonehands Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Then let's reach out to McAdoo You think at this point in camp, a kid that no one deemed worthy of a 7th rounder next year is going crack our lineup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Crusher Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 No one else selected I guess them having to wait an extra day while the NFL figured out Pryors eligibility is now a mute point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
