“@VicTafur: #Raiders safety Usama Young tore ACL/MCL per @BWilliamsonESPN ... Next man up and that man is Brandian Ross ...”

 

[The_Isomotion31]

Damn it man....So Brandian Ross or Jonathan Dowling?

 

[MajinZuub]

I don't think they want Dowling to hit the field this year until he bulks up

@JustBlogBaby: Holy hell, Miles Burris is on pace for one of the worst @PFF seasons ever. -23.6. Second worst MLB is -11.9

Forreal. At this point, what do we really have to lose at MLB? He can't be any worse than Miles.

 

[The_Isomotion31]

Michael Sam got waived....what are the odds that he is on the Raiders radar?

well, since we on pace for the #1 pick, we can trade and get multiple picks and load up with young talent...also doing a quick google search for 2015 free agents...there some nice player that have yet to hit there prime or at there prime ....we just need a good coach to mesh them all together =/

I know it may be a stretch...but can you imagine putting Ndomknalsdfhoasdf Suh at the DLine with Mack rushing the edge?

Exactly how I feel when I try and pronounce it.

 

[laker4lifeman]

I think Suh will come here if we get Rex.

I'm on board. We need a pass rush these bums aren't cutting it. Suh would give people are legit reason to hate us

Oakland: New investor named for Coliseum City

By Matthew Artz Oakland Tribune

Tuesday, Oct. 21, 2014 - 3:14 p.m.

OAKLAND -- The head of a leading financial and real estate consulting firm has put together a team interested in financing the construction of a new Raiders football stadium at the site of O.Co Coliseum.

The investment group headed by San Diego-based businessman Floyd Kephart has agreed to join a team that has exclusive rights to plan and execute the development of Oakland's multibillion dollar Coliseum City project, sources say.

With Kephart's investment group onboard, the Oakland City Council is expected to approve extending the planning team's contract at a closed-door meeting Tuesday afternoon. The contract was set to expire at the end of Tuesday.

Oakland has struggled for more than two years to find anyone willing to put money into its vision of redeveloping the 120-acre Coliseum site and hundreds of surrounding acres in East Oakland into a gleaming sports and entertainment hub with new stadiums for the Raiders and Oakland A's, a hotel, shops and homes.

Optimism ran high nearly a year ago when real estate titan Colony Capital and Dubai-based businessman Rashid Al-Malik joined the planning team. But they failed to sign up a developer for the project or get the Raiders to sign a letter-of-interest in the deal.

Kephart, a Tennessee native who lives outside San Diego, heads the Renaissance Companies, which serves as an adviser to some of the nation's largest hedge funds, sources said.

Kephart has been in Oakland in recent days talking both to city leaders and Raiders officials, although he has not yet spoken to the A's who also are considering trying to build a new ballpark-based development at the Coliseum site. Names of the additional investors on Kephart's team have not yet been disclosed.

There are still many hurdles to building sports stadiums at the Coliseum site. A new Raiders stadium faces an estimated $600 million funding shortfall, public debt on the land itself exceeds $106 million from prior renovations to O.CoColiseum and tens of millions of dollars in infrastructure improvements would be required to transform sprawling parking lots at the site into a more densely developed entertainment hub.

Also, A's co-owner Lew Wolff has said that if his team is to consider building a new ballpark at the Coliseum site it would want to control the development project.

Typical raider signee who will come and suck. Will leave the raiders 3 years later and have a crazy good year

But with his rep and the raiders rep, every tackle is a flag and fine
