Deadspin (sports version of TMZ I guess) is reported TP scored a 7 on his wonderlic test.

Worderlic test is only one factor used in basing a decision like, height, weight, speed, etc.. Many argue it's validness to play QB but like I said it's another piece of the evaluation process.

BTW - Alex Smith of the whiners scored a 40.

Team announced the signing of former Pro Bowler Lito Sheppard via Twitter today. Finally some veteran depth at a position that needed it! Wish they would have done it sooner!

hallelujah!!! Not the best CB out there, but I welcome depth at the position because I AM TIRED OF WATCHING THE SECONDARY GET BURNED!!!

AMEN! Great pick-up. Some may say his best years are behind him as he is in his 9th year but a solid CB who might also bring some leadership to our young secondary.

At this point, I would settle for signing Elvis "Toast" Patterson

Where did our 2nd pick go? Thought we only lost our 3rd and 4th?

2012 NFL Draft for our Oakland Raiders...

2nd Round - Traded to Patriots

3rd Round - No pick - Terrelle Pryor

4th Round - No pick - Jason Campbell

My buddy told me that we have two picks in the 2nd Round though next year...can someone confirm?

Raider_D · « **Reply #303 on:** August 23, 2011, 03:24:50 PM »

I personally still have hope for this season. Yea we have made some questionable moves recently that i think will haunt us next year but as for this season we are only really missing one impact player from last year (Mr. 21). As long as our defense of line can keep the the QB on his toes we hopefully wont see that much of an effect. Even in this preseason all these big plays were made with alot of our second and thrid string in. The players are getting healthy, we got D-mac back as well as Ford. Chaz will be back for the opener and by then hopefully we will only be missing Murphy, depending on how quickly Boss heals, which hopefully Moore would be able to replace him for now. Watching the plays they have been running we have seen none of the razzle dazzle that we seen last year and seeing how Jackson operates he probably wont show any until regular season. You can tell he is just running certain plays to figure out who will start in our trouble spots like o-line. I could be completely wrong and just trying to make excuses to help myself keep looking forward to this season but hey, true fans are true fans and i hope everyone starts looking forward to seeing our team play this year.

Yeah, dude should take a pill on the Negative Nancy attitude toward the team man. A bit early to get all hot headed about our really young and developing team. I mean, what did you expect? We do have a weak division this season, so anything is possible. The T. Pryor pick is most definitely exciting and was well worth the third round pick. Better than most of our first rounders as of the past few years...

NCRaider · « **Reply #290 on:** August 22, 2011, 02:53:13 PM »

He may be the only QB signed through 2012, with JC, Boller and Edwards contracts don't go beyond 2011. Lets face it the Raiders haven't been known for their development of QBs...especially young ones...I hope Hue Jackson who's had success in this area can use 2011 in developing his raw talent. Bye Bye Edwards make room for the kid at #3.

For now I'll refrain in passing judgement on the kid (he's is only that) and hope he can learn to become a pro. That fact that we've given up a 3rd round pick in next years draft tells be we'll put stock in his future. I guess change the name plates on your #2 jerseys...haha

I really dont like how Jackson's "niks" is starting to be "surgery". That's a little more than a nik coach. Oh well all i got to say is hopefully these are getting out of the way now rather than in the middle of the season you know. We still have 3 whole preseason games to go so that's a lot of time for these players to get their heal on.

and DHB is listed ahead of Louis Murphy and Denarius Moore...

http://www.footballnewsnow.com/2011/oakland-raiders-first-depth-chart-of-2011-wisniewski-second-string-for-now/

I'm just curious......is there anyone on this board/forum who thinks DHB should even be an NFL receiver much less on our fucking team? Anybody?
Okay, so he has been paid most of his money in bonus already, which means basically we already paid for him, we may as well use him right? NO! Put him behind the real ballers until he develops, IF he develops.
The old man sure is stubborn when he is wrong, and he is wrong this time. If I'm wrong, I'll happily embrace DHB, but I won't have to because he sucks ass. We have too many other receivers that can play better than him for him to be a starter.
If he caught 15 balls tonight for 200 yds, I would still be skeptical I think...
Will anyone stand up for him?

I say if he does not have a DRASTIC improvement this year. Cut him. But he is an Al guy, and we saw how long it took him to realize JaDummy was no good. So you can look forward to seeing DHB for some time I think.

They can’t cut DHB because of the Salary that they owe him and the acceleration to the salary cap.

The person I think that should be cut is DVD he just plain sucked on Thursday.

He couldn’t cover anyone.

You give the kid one... ONE preseason game and think he needs to be cut? How so? Nnamdi wasn't a star overnight.. Plus he had to go against one of the best in the league. Not like he as anyone like that to practice with....

and DHB is listed ahead of Louis Murphy and Denarius Moore...

http://www.footballnewsnow.com/2011/oakland-raiders-first-depth-chart-of-2011-wisniewski-second-string-for-now/

I'm just curious......is there anyone on this board/forum who thinks DHB should even be an NFL receiver much less on our fucking team? Anybody?
Okay, so he has been paid most of his money in bonus already, which means basically we already paid for him, we may as well use him right? NO! Put him behind the real ballers until he develops, IF he develops.
The old man sure is stubborn when he is wrong, and he is wrong this time. If I'm wrong, I'll happily embrace DHB, but I won't have to because he sucks ass. We have too many other receivers that can play better than him for him to be a starter.
If he caught 15 balls tonight for 200 yds, I would still be skeptical I think...
Will anyone stand up for him?

I say if he does not have a DRASTIC improvement this year. Cut him. But he is an Al guy, and we saw how long it took him to realize JaDummy was no good. So you can look forward to seeing DHB for some time I think.

They can’t cut DHB because of the Salary that they owe him and the acceleration to the salary cap.

The person I think that should be cut is DVD he just plain sucked on Thursday.

He couldn’t cover anyone.

Does anyone know what this list of players signed for?

Stephon Heyer
Trent Edwards
Sam Williams
Michael Huff
Khalif Barnes

if you could just post how many years and what the $$$

Stephon Heyer; I think a lineman… I couldn’t find much on his contract…

Trent Edwards; Contract as a 1 year backup QB. I couldn’t find his salary.

Sam Williams; I couldn’t find any good information, but it looks like he signed for outside Line Backer.

Michael Huff; As of right now, Huff will return for his sixth season after signing a contract Sunday, terms of which were not disclosed.

Khalif Barnes; tackle 1 yr(s) / $1,200,000

I know this doesn't answer all your questions, but I hope it helps...

So can we start signing free agents at 12:01 am ET Friday?

No, they can't "file" free agent signings until 6pm ET (3pm PT) Friday. I guess it gives the teams all day Friday to get the signings done...but they can't be filed till that time. See the articles below:

tomorrow will be very interesting for sure.... I expect us to sign Jared Gaither and take a pass at Antonio Cromarte. Hopefully We get Miller and Kam Wimbley locked up too.
