Golden Tate has always been a guy I thought should be a Raider. He is a hard nose WR that goes after the ball, good hands and doesnt go down easy. I know he os in the twilight of his carrer, but would LOVE to have him in the locker room showing our young wrs how to play hard.RaiderandBulldog » Wed Mar 03, 2021 6:35 pm
I’d take over him Jones but resigning Nelly is the top Wr issue.BoJacksonRules » Wed Mar 03, 2021 7:25 pm
Another head case, no thanksGUYDON » Wed Mar 03, 2021 7:53 pm
He said "throw me the ball" to a camera and then apologized at a press conference and answered every question about it. He is a player that plays with a lot of fire, he hates to lose (something we could use more of) I watched him for years and he was a pure team guy, quietly went about his business, all that losing with DET amd NY finally got to him and he had an outburst. I dont think it is who he is. Maybe Im wrong, but I have always respected how he plays the game.BoJacksonRules wrote Wed Mar 03, 2021 7:25 pm:Another head case, no thanks

With all the holes this team has Tate shouldn't be any kind of priority. Hes not better than N.A...GUYDON » Wed Mar 03, 2021 8:32 pm
Yeah Tate isnt a #1, Robinson would be amazing. I would resign NA if possible. But I think tate would be great to bring in on a 1 year to teach the young guys to play the position with some fire. Je has sure hands and fights like a mofo for extra yardsFade2SilverAndBlack wrote Wed Mar 03, 2021 8:26 pm:With all the holes this team has Tate shouldn't be any kind of priority.

I really want the Bear WR Robinson or the Tampa WR but they will prob. cost to much....

All serious investments should go into the defense and Oline. Ruggs and Edwards need to start and draft a mid round receiver to push them. As much as I’d like Aghlor or some other FA WRs we won’t be able to afford a number one WR if we sign some difference makers to this joke of a defense.BoJacksonRules » Wed Mar 03, 2021 9:16 pm
To be honest I don’t remember exactly what he did, but it was a few things. I used to like him for the reasons you mentioned, now he just bugs the shit out of me. He’s got the attitude of Steve Smith without his skills and talent.GUYDON wrote Wed Mar 03, 2021 7:53 pm:He said "throw me the ball" to a camera and then apologized at a press conference and answered every question about it.

OK let's dispel this once and for all. Jacobs had 33 catches last season on 45 targest and only 2 drops so it is not that Jacobs cannot catch the ball, it is a system thing or it is a QB decision thing, not a Jacobs thing. It is either one of those two things, . We target our RBs less than many teams (not because of the RB, as shown above, he can catch the ball and he is not prone to drops) by design and/or our QB selects not to throw to RBs (which on a glance is true for Carr's career) and targets is not a Jacobs issue either. Jacobs caught 73% of the passes thrown his way which is consistent with Carr's completion pecentage.Ivanavich wrote Wed Mar 03, 2021 9:39 pm:Yep.
Raiders have a TE and need to upgrade the receptions made by the RBs. Only 3 WRs get used unless injuries hit.
Tate isn't a top 3 WR on the Raiders. Pass.

Carr used to get trashed by fans for dumping off to the RB’s too much and now he’s getting dumped on for not throwing enough to the RB’s?

Can he rush the QB consistently?
