A lot of fellow raider fans are pissed but I’ve been following this QB since he was with the jags. I’m a happy raider fan with this pick up. Super underrated but also a super good team mate. This has AP written all over.
Brush....remember Gannon. Journeyman.....steps into the raiders and wins MVP. Remember Plunkett? Washed up....steps in for Pastorinia nwins what.....6 straight to win the wildcard and then the superbowl? This makes me smile. I like him. Snake used to show up drunk and win HUGE games. Down and dirty.....just win baby.
I think hes enough to get this team across the finish line. Raiders are good on both sides of the ball. Just a couple more peices and some depth. Deep playoffs this season no doubt.
Assuming he starts, he's gonna have Davante Adams, Michael Mayer, Jakobi Meyers, Brock Bowers to throw to....just to name a few of the weapons on Offense!! Lets go!!
Aiden needs to work on pocket presence, agility, and scrambling all off-season. Hes got a great arm but not being able to extend plays aint gonna cut it in out division.
you watch tape like this and then think what he’s gonna do with Davante Adams, Brock Bowers, Michael Mayer, Jakobi Meyers, Michael Gallup & Tre Tucker good fucking lucky defenses
This signing can't be worse than Jimmy G... speaking of Jimmy G, why the hell is he still on the roster? Raiders could save 12mill in cap releasing him
Should be fun on the Raiders at least. I think he still can develop more. Note his pocket movement and scrambling ability compared to what we saw from Carr and O'Connell.
Just doesn’t have the wheels or the arm of a Mahomes, but he’s got a scrappy, devil-may-care sort of style. He’s a good fit with the current Raiders culture.
As far as Raider fans go, AOC could never offer you the mobility or pocket awareness than Minshew gives. For that reason alone, it's a no brainer. You can't be a serious team in the modern league with a 3rd string talent like AOC as your QB. This is NOT the league anymore for immobile, terrible pocket awareness type QB's. They must do it all equally as good as or close to it as possible.
