Zach Miller, TE

I have read virtually nothing about whether the Raiders were going to sign him but he's probably the best TE available right now. Better than Greg Olsen, too.

I think we should go after him before Braylon.

i doubt that hartsock is going to keep us from going after a receiving TE. hartsock is a blocking TE. shockey only being on a 1 year deal shouldn't be much of a deterrent to us going after a top TE either, it's only a one year deal.

that said, i'd be surprised if we went after another TE. i'd love it if we did that, though.

What? Have you lost faith in Gary Barnidge?

No, Zach Miller is just too good to pass up.

whats with you and TE's

When the coaching staff spends the entire offseason talking about how important it is to have a good TE, it's probably a good idea to make sure you have a good one. I like our TE's, but as I already said Miller is better than all of them and it's not really close.

lol its a valid question. jeez you people.

it seems that everyone here is fine with Barnidge and Rosario who have been "poised to break out" for what seems like every year now. oh, then there's that Jeremy Shockey guy who is obviously the most reliable TE ever and surely won't have injury problems.

I mean fug, guys. You DO realize how important the TE is in a Rivera/Chud offense, right? You do realize how much a good TE helps a quarterback, right?

Sorry for wanting to improve the leagues worst offense.

A TE like that could become a best friend for Cam now and in future years. If the price is right it would be a good pick up for us.

Raiders will probably give Miller like 9m a year.

If they weren't over the cap they might..

I don't really like FA spending on guys but TE is usually a good position that translates team from team..I'm not saying go get him but I wouldn't be mad about it.

      [Joe Person] Jonathon Brooks had a successful 2nd ACL surgery - Expected to miss all of 2025 Season

      By TD alt · Posted

      He doesn't need to play in 2025. And maybe not 2026 either from what I've read. This is but one peer-reviewed selection:    "A devastating complication of returning to sport following ACL reconstruction (ACLR) is a second ACL injury. Strong evidence now indicates that younger, more active athletes are at particularly high risk for a second ACL injury and this risk is greatest within the first two years following ACLR." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5226931/     Regarding your first question... "The optimal timing of ACLR is an important clinical decision that affects patient outcomes significantly. Even though there is no consensus in the literature, there are some trends regarding timing of ACLR. Various authors suggest that ACLR be performed at least 3 weeks after injury in order to avoid arthrofibrosis. More important than time alone, objective criteria including perioperative swelling, edema, hyperthermia, and ROM are important indicators of when surgery should be performed." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4004131/#:~:text=The optimal timing of ACLR is an important clinical decision,in order to avoid arthrofibrosis.

      [The Athletic] Panthers’ offseason to-do list

      Not sure I would be so sure they feel worse than us - their QB was better than Bryce at in the first season, they got DJ Moore, and 2 more high caliber draft picks.  We had to give up basically our entire defense this season indirectly to make that happen and we still have no true #1 WR.  Not saying I would rather have Caleb over Bryce at this point - but I would rather have their team situation and draft picks hands down.

      A lot of people think this draft is weak at QB--I think, after the first five picks of the first round, there are a ton of developmental QBs who could develop into the role--here is the psychology behind it--Bryce becomes the mentor--you can learn as much by teaching others than by being taught.   It also makes him a true leader.  But I think there are a few QB in this draft that might not be ready now, but in 2 years, could be NFL starting QBs--Howard, Rourke, Ewers, Milroe, Dart, etc.  Talk about a cheaper backup and one that could evolve into trade capital--or if Bryce can't find consistency-his replacement.  Round 3 will have some of these qbs--maybe early day 3.
