Return To The RAIDER-FORUM
Key didn’t impress me at all in the handful of plays he was in on. Except 1 where he split the double team but the QB got the ball off and it was that huge completion for like 50 yards where Nelson had good coverage and the receiver still made the catch. I have to go back and rewatch the other plays he was in.
As for the edge Key had a couple of solid plays think him & Carradine might be the backups as we havent seen much of Carradine, Brown & Calhoun made some plays today but they also commited some stupid penalties.
No one is crowing anyone - nothing wrong with being happy about a youngster coming in working hard, and demonstrating that he belongs. Huge jump from small college to the NFL and think many of us thought he would really struggle. Well, he has surprised thus far!
PJ Hall is special.

While you may be jumping the gun a bit based on one preseason game I will definitely concur he was quite impressive. Looked very explosive and disruptive and seemed to dominate his one-on-one matchups. I’m hopefully optimistic without question and I would definitely agree if he can play this way consistently against starters I think Mack (whenever mgmt removes their heads from their ass and signs him) is in store for a big season if pj turns into a force.Racknel wrote Sat Aug 18, 2018 5:58 pm:This should be our best draft class since 2014. And PJ Hall will be special. Worrying about his small school background is quickly becoming a non issue. He is a freak athlete that explodes off the line and can move grown men with easy. This is exactly the type of player Mack needs to elevate his game. PJ is made for Gunthers D.

This^^. This is what the Seahawks did to reach their pinnacle. Good deep scouting and lots of roster turnover combined with teaching them how to win at this level. It could happen here.Sea of Hands wrote Sat Aug 18, 2018 6:33 pm:The Raiders went out and drafted some athletes. That was the idea. The key is to nurture raw talent by teaching technique and developing skills that pertain to the positions played. We have several intriguing projects that could turn into great football players. And yes, I agree that Hall is a bit on the special side. I am very excited about this draft class...

Not overhyped. Hurst and hall are men amongst boys. I didn’t even need to watch these game to tell ya that. Go key on them, no one is crowning anything. They deserve the respect they are getting but of course they better keep pushin. Do we think they won’t? These kids seem to have pretty good heads on their shoulders. And a chip to boot.The AzzAzzin wrote Sun Aug 19, 2018 12:44 am:lets no crown anyone after two preseason games lol. We overhype hard here lol. He might be special but lets give it some time lol.

The Al Davis way. If this is the way Gruden can do drafts then he needs his own guy in here.Sea of Hands wrote Sat Aug 18, 2018 6:33 pm:The Raiders went out and drafted some athletes.
