ok, am i the only guy thinking we need someone in the backfield to help a.) protect collins, and b.) give a threat with jordan???
Idea

seriously, how bout drafting madison hedgecock out of unc, he's a great blocker, and he showed 4.55 speed at the combine, i mean if anything he should be picked up in say like 4th round at least,

The Raiders need a fb bad. Ever since we lost Ritche that position has sucked for us. Crockett is not a fb. He is a short yardage specialist.

Hetherington just got re-signed and Rob Konrad is in Oakland to get probed by Uncle Al. I honestly don't think having a stud FB will be a priority in this offense, since there will be many 3 reiever alignments. Ask yourself, who would you rather see on the field...a FB or Ronald Curry?

Rob Konrad baby! he will be an awesome lead blocker for Jordan and can run too. So lets hope he will be healthy. He agreed to a 1 year deal for less than a mil.

Al didn't resign Porter and trade for Moss to run the ball up the middle. I say line up Moss, Porter, Curry and Gabriel and let it fly. Occasionally hand it to Jordan who will have BIG holes as the D's will be in nickel or dime.

Norv Turners offense calls for a power running game that sets up the play action pass so the signing of Konrad will help that. This offense is going to be hard to stop when the defenses doesn't know whats coming.
