We aren't ready to win now and can't afford to give up multiple #1's at this point of our development - It could get ugly real quick in OAK. Gruden has too much control and his mindset seems to be stuck back in 2003 with some of the moves he's made I've read that part of the reason for the trade is that Mack never came in to meet the new staff If that's true that's pretty amazing to think about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rldev Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 7 minutes ago, Vader said: a player like Mack is literally the only single player that can transform it - because of the pieces in place in the secondary. and it doesn’t have to be top 5. the problem with the defense is that no secondary can keep coverage for more than a few seconds before something shakes open. At that point, the QB will either be sacked, pressured or make a pass. Pass rush and coverage have a synergy. No. The problem with this defense is just as Pepper Johnson claims. It's a terribly coached unit. You know, I know it, everyone knows it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no excuse for this defense not to be a top 20 at minimum. If our coaching is so bad, why does everyone believe that one single player will transform it into a top 5 defense? Every year everyone bitches about not investing in the offense. We finally invest in a QB that seems worthy who needs help. Don’t disagree. But they’ve ignored the pass rush as much as the offense. It would depend who’s available anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having either a pass rush (oakland) or a secondary (nyj) in isolation will never work. i would never advocate trading for mack or fowler if i didn’t think the secondary was at least good enough to create that synergy.

This guy has been given enough on defense. Ask yourself honestly, if Bill Belichick or say Wade Phillips coached this defense, would it be significantly better? The answer is yes. Penalties, no pressure and out of position players are the hallmark of the Todd Bowles/Kacey Rogers defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy their secondary wasn't that good, and they couldn't generate a pass rush from the interior. Not to mention their DC wasn't very good . ( For all purpose Jack Delrio was the DC) A lot of blown coverages that you shouldn't see from a professional defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony MaC Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 It would have arguably been a worthwhile move to the Jets under a certain set of circumstances, most notably the one where only up to ONE first round pick was used to acquire him, probably their 2020 one. Otherwise this team can't afford to mortgage their future for one player, not at this time. They need to support Sam, and while there are few edge rushers near the caliber of Mack there will be other options for our problem there. Worth an effort but they had to set their price. Chicago outbid them, oh well, let's move on. Maybe they can throw a mid-round pick for Fowler or something, could be worth it thanks to the additional draft pick the Jets just acquired.

Raiders will win more games in 2018 than the Jets. Only position you might say the Jets are better than the Raiders is in the secondary.( will that be the case by the start of the season- With the money Raiders saved trading Mack I expect CB B Breeland to sign with the Raiders. ( had him in twice already) Also even without K Mack , the Raiders are going to generate a pass rush( pass rush will always help a secondary out. See the Jet's secondary all preseason was exposed bigtime without any pressure. Also Paul Guenther ( Raiders DC).

This just goes to show like in 2003 Gruden is super overrated as a HC, and Giganticly incompetent as a GM now, granted the 2 1st rounders help, but you will never replace Mack on a win now team, it would be a lot different if he inherited a team he needed to rebuild, and made this deal, but to be in the win now mode, and get rid of Mack to another team that thinks they are in win now mode is silliness. I still haven’t seen the deal officially reported as finalized anywhere, so you know if the deal is contingent on Mack signing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Gruden says he never had a Qb pick up his offense faster than Carr has.( that doesn't happen without putting a lot of work in). A Qb in Gruden offense has so much on his plate , very complex offense that has so much motion, and where Qb has a lot of audible options. The Raiders protect Derek Carr he's going to put up monster numbers in Gruden's offense.

Look, I think it's too much in general. I'd be in favor of forking over a pair of 1s simply because of my lack of faith in this GM using these picks, or the cap room, wisely. It's obvious that we'd be better off holding onto what we've got, draft someone even 75% as good as Mack in round 1, plus another good OL starter in round 1 next year, plus use what's left over towards signing yet another good, proven starter with the saved cap room. More likely we'll end up with 1 so-so to decent starter who isn't a difference-maker, one below-average starter who'll start due to his draft slot, and we'll of course waste another $10m/year on scrubs.
