The fact that you let the Raiders bid sit there, apparently knowing it to be false, so you could drive up bids is shady at best.
I assumed it was false but I wasn't sure until I contacted him the next day. I'm sorry for not handling it sooner?
Relax buddy. Its done with. This is why a lot of us dont like auctions FYI. I have no problem bidding in them but you already know how I feel about waiting for an answer. Sup?
One could argue the raiders deals wasn't good enough... Headcase lb Injured wr And nobody up to wakes quality. I appreciate the gamesmanship...I imagine some of this type of stuff goes on the the nfl
And I love Wake...but reality is if someone opened the bidding at Round 1 #8...I'd listen. It would take more...but I would listen. Wake thrives off his athleticism and I don't buy it lasting for more then 2...3 years tops. And when it falls..it'll be hard. This is also a VERY strong year for DE's. I'd also like to find someone who could rush from either end...not exclusively from the left. I would look towards the Jared Allen deal and up that deal for a first outright instead of swapping 1sts. You just got to draft better then K.C. did ;p Even if they got a solid LT and a 1500 yard rusher out of it.
I'd do it for a first and 2 3rd's. Even better if he has a higher pick to. Could do some serious damage in the draft...especially if an idiot picks a QB ahead of him ;p Hell I traded a 1st and 2nd and got Orakpo....that guys a double digit sack guy over the harder RE.
I closed it... oh... didn't realize you could post in closed threads as a mod. well this is educational.
