I'd imagine the Raiders need to get on the phone with Kevin Boss.

We need a lot more than that. Maybe Al Davis will be next to be traded..

Hard to imagine. The Raiders lost Nnamdi, which was expected, but after signing Wembley to that deal I just had a bad feeling about their chances to keep Miller. The Raiders currently have 4 TE's on their roster. Does any one of them have a chance of starting or is Ray right in them probably contacting Boss?

Dang! It would have been nice to have Lawson now with this signing! *sigh*

 

[BINGO]

Miller being in our division doesn't make me happy. Dude is a beast on the low. However, the Hawks do not have a QB that can get him the ball, so it may be a moot point.

 

[Ray_Dogg]

Our entire division has improved a lot. It's really on our coaching.

 

[trancemeister]

That's what I'm banking on. That we can ride the coaching coat tails at least this season until we get some talent in (hopefully) next draft. We should only have like 20 odd draft picks with all the comp picks we will be collecting

HAHA good point

Raiders are working out free agent TE Kevin Boss on Wednesday.
Landing Boss would certainly help lessen the sting the Raiders are feeling from their stunning loss of Zach Miller. Boss is not nearly the pass catcher Miller is, but is an elite blocker. Boss has "a lot of characteristics we're looking for," coach Hue Jackson said. He'd be about as good a Miller consolation prize as Oakland could hope for.

Agreed. I don't like TJax at all. He'll look good in preseason and tank during the season. I got to see him a lot when I was living in MN.
