It took Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie six-plus years to completely overhaul the roster he inherited from late-owner Al Davis. First-year head coach Jon Gruden already is about halfway to gutting the roster he inherited from McKenzie when he was hired less than four months ago. On Saturday, Gruden traded 2016 second-round draft pick Jihad
Love this trade. Gets us a player we might actually get some production from.
Ward was a huge reach to begin with. Switzer was a player I thought we might draft that would help our ST and return game.
Me too. I still remember drafting Ward and I was “who is that?!” Second rounders need to at least be solid players and Ward was not. This was a great trade!
Reggie has to feel like shit and so does his scouting department. Who goes and who stays ? Looks like Reggie is on thin ice. If John fires Reggie’s Twin he’s baiting Reggie to Quit .
I think it’s more about finding players to fit Gruden’s scheme. I think the level of talent we had last year could’ve been successful if properly coached.
Good move , great draft. McKenzie is still an important part of the organization however Gruden is making some key decisions to solidify a new direction and it seems everyone involved will benefit as long as the team improves and wins games. I trust in Reggie and he complements Gruden and his vision of a great Raiders team.
Are you sure the title shouldn’t read gruden gets rid of a Del Rio pick?
Reggie got the better end of this trade
Great trade cowboy fans on you tube are losing thier shit over this trade and I love it
