Does anyone know what has happened to Trent Richardson RB ? Does he have anything left in the tank or is he a head case ?

Go Jets....Cyborg

While 1st wave of free agency is over, TE-needy teams await Gresham’s news: #Raiders, #Browns, #Bills. One of the few big names out there

Initials: MD. RT @VicTafur: Saffold last year. Gresham this year. Mark Davis should have gone to medical school. Missed his calling.

Here's a guy on the next tier of WR's that the Jets could reach out to as a backup WO to Decker/Marshall:

A source informed ESPN Raiders reporter Bill Williamson that there's no chance Oakland re-signs free agent WR Denarius Moore.

Moore, an Al Davis draft pick in 2011, fell out of favor in Oakland under ex-coach Dennis Allen due to consistency and work-ethic issues. He caught just 12 passes for 115 scoreless yards last season on 237 snaps. Moore is still just 26 and has blazing speed, but has had a dead-silent market to this point.


Denarius Moore ...Pass on him ... the market has been dead silent on him because he outright Sucks!!!

Denarius Moore ...Pass on him ... the market has been dead silent on him because he outright Sucks!!!

Here are his career stats:

2011 OAK 13 33 618 18.7
2012 OAK 15 51 741 14.5
2013 OAK 13 46 695 15.1
2014 OAK 10 12 115 11.5

He doesn't suck. Who do we have that's better backing up the WO position? He's had some production. Before you shoot down poster's ideas, bring something more to the table please. And while you're at it, it wouldn't kill you to come up with an alternative or solution. Try adding more to the forum.

Lardarius Webb agreed to a restructured deal, making $6M in 2015 rather than previously scheduled $8.5M. True team player. Big for Ravens



Jason La Canfora @JasonLaCanfora · 43m43 minutes ago

Huge move for Ravens who badly wanted to keep Webb but who also badly need cap room. CB was already thin. Webb allows them to sign others





Jason La Canfora @JasonLaCanfora · 43m43 minutes ago

This wasn't a normal restructuring that puts the same money in player's pocket, and actually puts it there sooner. Webb taking less to stay




Jason La Canfora @JasonLaCanfora · 37m37 minutes ago

Ravens very optimistic a healthy Webb can bolster their secondary in 2015 after a rough and injury riddled 2014 on the back end

Thanks @Ravens fans for all the support. #Raven4life

Yes he clearly makes mental errors on the field, no arguments there. But many are quick to say he will never get it, that's the criticism that I have, and question where it comes from. What I saw on the field was a kid who struggled because he was extremely green (no offense to Martians :)). He was not ready to play right out of the chute, and it showed. Some of that transitioned to bad habits that carried over to last year. In regards to your "doesn't work hard enough" quote, I have also heard that and "lazy" attributed to Smith. I don't care who plays to be honest, but Smith IMO has been unfairly criticized for things outside of his control.

why don't we criticize him for being one of the worst QB period, i.e., can not read D, 1 option and run QB, pocket awareness is just plan bad if any, the QB clock for getting rid of the ball is non existent - thus the sacks, how about ball security or doesn't that matter? Also. the book on him coming out of college was exactly what he exhibits.

How about that ball around the back fumble on the goal line?

I think the fact that you feel the need for a disclaimer, means that it is a factor of Geno's capabilities in your mind. I have posted previously that I think that some of the criticisms of Smith, notably his 'inability to process' or can't read a defense are reflections of some deep seeded bias.
So if I don't like geno in a racist deep down? Nobody liked geno, that's why he was projected as a top 5 pick, and slipped to the 2nd round, if not for idzik thinking he found something good in the dollar movie bin, who knows how far he would have fallen.
