Another Raider who's number one fan is Rob Ryan, might be released. If so I think Dallas and Ryan will want to jump all over him. I remember watching Ryan when he was in Oakland brag about Kelly.
Kelly is 6-6 300 pounds.

Wimbley and Huff are two others being talked about getting released but both have been talked about on here before. I don't see Huff since Dallas pasted last year or Wimbley since the Browns traded him after one year under Ryan as DC.

But who knows.

As a 3-4 DE I guess? This guy has really dropped off the map. For the right money I wouldn't mind the experiment.
 
Are there any defensive players who can't call Ryan their number one fan? Ryan spent much of the year talking about what a great coach Dave Campo was, too.
 
Shaquille O'neal is available. I think we should take a look.
 
It's really hard to listen to Ryan to much when it comes to defensive players he's coached cause he's one of those guys who just thinks everyone he's ever coached is amazing.

Amen.

And I really hope we don't go the Parcells route of automatically defaulting to guys who played for Ryan in the past. Are we really going to build a great defense by collecting players from his former non-great defenses, only now when these players are four or five years older than when he had them the first time?
 
Are the Raiders so much better than us that we want their cast offs?
 
Yep, whats one more guy on the roster who is used to being over paid and under performing.

The Seven Dwarfs are disbanding...............Snow White loved each and every one of 'em. I would shy away from siging Dopey tho.......the name alone screams failure and would read horridly on the back of a jersey.

The "Al Davis" Raiders overpaid on a regular basis. Tommy Kelly was overpaid on his last contract. Having said that, he actually played reasonably well in 2010, but could he bounce back and what is his price point?

The new regime in Oakland will be different. Some guys might be worth a look-see, but how good are they? Some players flourish under the right circumstances. Carlos Rogers had a pretty good year once he escaped Washington. Could one of these guys make the same kind of impact?

Sneezy can convert OLB and replaced Spencer.

Ummm...Tommy Kelly had more sacks than anyone on the Boys roster not named Demarcus last year.

Well its alot easier for people to make fun of another teams players than to look in the mirror and see how horrible our players have played.

Right...if I wanted a job that paid big bucks, I would be saying that too...
 
It doesn't matter who the Cowboys bring in as long as they wanna work hard and play at a level of intensity level we haven't seen since the mid 90's. The Cowboys biggest need is defenders that fly to the ball with urgency and anger.

Good point, but that's not really saying much. Although I don think he played pretty well the last couple seasons.
