Raider Nation in state of shock

[Invité]

and righteous anger over Khalil Mack trade Much of the Raider Nation woke up from a dead sleep and entered a nightmare. The Raiders traded Khalil Mack. Words very few thought they’d hear this morning. The shock of this has been massive Quinton Bell Oakland Raiders Jersey , causing several stages of grief to kick in almost simultaneously. But mostly it’s anger. And rightfully so.Some will try to justify it. I get it. It’s a coping mechanism. If you want to keep rooting for this team and for Jon Gruden’s “triumphant return” as Raiders head coach, you have to talk yourself into this. Some are saying things like the Raiders can’t pay two stars simultaneously (even though they can).Some are saying this winning cures all, even though you need great players like Khalil Mack in order to win games.Some are saying this will be better long term even though Mack is in his prime and will be for several years and draft picks are a crap shoot.We all went to bed last night thinking despite the reports the trade market was heating up for Mack, that it just didn’t make any sense for it to actually happen.Then I woke up, likely the same way many of us did, with a phone call. I’m thinking Bruce Irvin was one of those people. And he doesn’t mess around.Derek Carr said the same, but G rated. Saying simply “No way” and how “sucky” this is.Yeah. Sucky.Gruden came into Oakland and immediately started throwing his weight around. He made a series of questionable trades in the draft — with the answer being that they were bad trades — and now he has made the stupidest trade since probably ever.The fallout from this has been a lot of righteous anger on the part of a scorned Raider Nation.As I said last week, this will be a dark cloud that will always hang over Jon Gruden. Every move he makes will be looked at through the lens of being the guy who shipped the best defensive player in the NFL away instead of paying him what he’s worth.The stink of this won’t wash off easily.Follow @LeviDamien Raiders News What should we expect from Raiders DT Maurice Hurst in Year 2?What should we expect from Raiders DT Maurice Hurst in Year 2?Abram Could be Instant-Impact Hit at Safety for Raiders -..." />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesHorizontal - WhiteSilver And Black Pridean Oakland Raiders communityLog In or Sign UpLog InSign UpFanpostsFanshotsRaidersOddsAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 322 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Raiders StoriesScheduleRosterStatsYahoo Raiders NewsYahoo Raiders Team PageYahoo Raiders ReportYahoo Raiders Depth ChartYahoo Raiders TransactionsYahoo Raiders PhotosOdds About Masthead Community Guidelines StubHub ?Silver Mining 5/9: What to expect in the 2nd year from Raiders DT Maurice HurstNew Quinton Bell Oakland Raiders Jersey ,62commentsPDTShareTweetShareShareSilver Mining 5/9: What to expect in the 2nd year from Raiders DT Maurice HurstCary Edmondson-USA TODAY SportsRaiders News What should we expect from Raiders DT Maurice Hurst in Year 2?What should we expect from Raiders DT Maurice Hurst in Year 2?Abram Could be Instant-Impact Hit at Safety for Raiders - NBC Bay AreaThird of Raiders' first-round picks could be the quickest to make an impact, some believeKiper names Raiders RB Josh Jacobs an instant-impact player for 2019ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. names Raiders RB Josh Jacobs an instant-impact player for 2019Rashaan Melvin thinks Lions a better fit for him than Raiders – ProFootballTalkCornerback Rashaan Melvin's stint with the Raiders last year went so well that he wrote a social media post saying that he felt he "cheated the fans and organization" with his play in Oakland.Mike Mayock explains his first draft as Raiders GM | SI.comThe TV analyst-turned-NFL exec opens up about the draft and his vision for the Raiders, plus more fallout from the 2019 draft.Edge rusher Maxx Crosby is wild card of Oakland Raiders draft | The Sacramento BeeRookie Maxx Crosby, who had one college offer out of high school in the Dallas-Fort Worth football hotbed, is the wild card of this Raiders draft class and being compared to legendary linebacker Ted Hendricks.AFC WestDenver Broncos: Drew Lock confident he can play under centerBroncos rookie quarterback is confident he will be able to adjust from using shotgun formations in college.Broncos adjust scouting staff, no more Kubiaks – ProFootballTalkThe Broncos are down to no Kubiaks.
