Are the Raiders wrong to trade Mack? I'm not so sure

[cardsunsfan]

Also, the Raiders were ranked what 23rd in the league in defence? Do you think the Raiders will go down to 32 now? How many places down do you think they will go with not having him?

It just goes to show you one great defensive player does not make a team.. There are teams that have a top 15 defence that a lot of guys who watch football can't really name their defensive players but because Mack does some amazing things everybody remembers him...

the decision was easy.

Mack didnt want to sign for what the Raiders wanted to pay.

so, no...they were not wrong to trade him...apparently their only other option was to let him sit at home.

I don't believe that tom Brady too a pay cut . He did restructure his contract to free up cash .Which as to my knowledge means he got his money up front . Not exactly the kind move many people think.

Yeah Gruden did the right thing lol

Don’t EVER trade a game changer in his prime, when he wants to play for your team. Stud & DPOW

He had an absolutely insane game... and the Bears still lost.

I maintain that the Bears were stupid for trading for him. They're a mediocre team with too many holes to justify 2 firsts and a ton of their cap space for an edge rusher. If this was a team who seemed to be on the bring of a title... that would be one thing, but the Bears are on the bring of nothing. They lost to the Packers when the Packers didn't have Rogers for almost half the game and his backup was giving away points.

The 5-11 Bears are going to severely regret not having a 1st round pick and 20 something mil in cap space to fill the gaping holes on their roster.

The Raiders might be stupid for trading him, because I think they were a helluva lot closer to a the title than the Bears... but the Bears are still dopes.

So how do the Ramms have some magical ink where they can have ten superstars at the same time? Gonna get ugly when Gurley and Goff needs to get paid.

Gurley has already gotten his contract.

After 4 weeks and 4 strip sacks, I’d say the Bears won that trade. Especially after McKenzie butchers the two draft picks

It will be a few years... Right now it looks like gruden screwed up....but if five years from now the raiders have two new lombardis and the bears dont..... How does it look then?
