Early in the season Womens Bo Jackson Jersey , the shuffling going on in the secondary was a little odd, but somewhat understandable. They were trying to see what worked and what didn’t and if anyone would step up and take the starting job. Thus far at the safety positions no one has. We don’t yet know what WILL work at the safety spot, but we do know what will NOT work. Reggie Nelson and Marcus Gilchrist have NOT worked. Those two are also the elder statesmen of the group, so with a clear long term rebuild happening, the only answer is to go with the young unproven safeties, Erik Harris and Karl Joseph.Paul Guenther went with a different answer.A week after Reggie Nelson wasn’t even active on game day, and Gilchrist was clearly the worst player on the field, the two of them trotted out once again as the team’s starters and played the majority of the snaps at safety.Meanwhile Harris played 25 snaps (45%) and Joseph 13 (24%).No one is saying Harris and Joseph have earned the starting jobs, but if either or both of them are going to be able to showcase themselves and show they are deserving of a shot at being the long term answer, they can’t be up and down each week and getting limited snaps. Jon Gruden said after last Sunday’s loss to the Colts that the Raiders are trying to put the best players on the field, not just put players out there for evaluation or to “audition” them. The players on the field aren’t giving them any better chance to win, and quite possibly are hurting the team.This team isn’t winning. Not even close most weeks. The defense is a travesty. Not only are Nelson and Gilchrist part of that Bo Jackson Jersey , but it’s past time to shift into evaluation mode and put in players hungry to carve out a career. Not guys who are clearly giving up because hope in winning is lost.Week 9 snap counts..Offense.Defense.Special Tms...Offense.Defense.Special Tms.Follow @LeviDamien There’s few things rabid football fans enjoy more than predicting the draft.

So, every year we hold a contest. But we wouldn’t just ask the fans to submit their picks without putting ourselves out there as well. So, before we get to the fan results, let’s look at how the staff did with their picks.S&BP Staff 7-round Raiders draft predictionsPickLevi DamienTyler SmithBD WilliamsMarcus KrauseTyler GreenEvan GroatJohn GilbertThomas WheatonPickLevi DamienTyler SmithBD WilliamsMarcus KrauseTyler GreenEvan GroatJohn GilbertThomas WheatonMine had trades, though after a trade down I had Clelin Ferrell as the Raiders top pick. Evan got Foster Moreau within a pick late and Tyler Green got Josh Jacobs in the first round, but at 27. BD got Hunter Renfrow, but with the last pick. Thomas Wheaton got Maxx Crosby, albeit later in the draft than he went. So, five of the eight got one pick correct. Not bad.Now we get to the fans. I got 167 submissions. Of those 111 got at least one correct pick. Of those 27 got at least one correct pick in the correct round. The rules of the contest were that to win, you must correctly pick at least two of the Raiders’ selections. 16 people did that. Of those, 11 had at least one of those picks at the correct spot (I gave some forgiveness late due to the trades).But only one person got three correct picks — centergroveraiders who correctly picked the Raiders three first round picks https://www.raiderslockerroom.com/authentic-antonio-brown-jersey , with Johnathan Abram in the correct spot. So, that’s our winner with the bragging rights and T-shirt that come with it.A close second is I Bleed Silver & Mack who nailed the Raiders top two picks of Ferrell Jacobs in the correct spots followed by Craig who got Jacobs in the correct spot and Hunter Renfrow later. He predicted Renfrow as a 7th rounder, but Renfrow was in the fifth with just one more pick afterward, so that’s pretty close.There were quite a few great predictions. The most commonly predicted picks were Ferrell, Jacobs, and Renfrow.Here is the entire leaderboardS&BP community mock draft top predictionsS&BP screen nameRound 1aRound 1bRound 1cRound 2Round 4Round 5 (4b, 4c)Round 7 (5)Round 7 S&BP screen nameRound 1aRound 1bRound 1cRound 2Round 4Round 5 (4b, 4c)Round 7 (5)Round 7Others who nailed a player the Raiders predicted, but who didn’t make our leader board include The Snake 76 and King Coram who got Isaiah Johnson in round 4 and Devi Lamien (cute) who got Trayvon Mullen in round two.Thanks again to all the submissions.
