Reggie McKenzie must make the right decision and that is to start making good on his word of better character players on this team. This goes for McClain, DHB AND Underwood. I probably wouldn't mention DHB, but his pathetic apology for the DUI was more of a PR thing, not sincere in the least. It is a sense of entitlement that is becoming a huge issue with the younger generation and is compounded by some of them being paid huge money by a pro sports team. McKenzie is a couple of years older than me and hopefully sees the same thing. Get kids in there with a humble, grateful characteristic and an above average work ethic that will still kick butt and are competitive. THAT is what professionals are suppose to be, NOT what these entitled brats are doing. Time to shed that stigma of the Oakland Raiders being the last stop for the lawless and problem children. Keep the badass reputations on the field winning games, not off the field and in the news with mugshots. Agreed, 100%.

I'm sure he can feel the heat from the young fast pups licking their chops. DHB is the one that has to play out of his mind to keep his starts.

We needed to overhaul the scouting department. The only real keepers there are; Zack Crockett and Calvin Branch. I totally agree, we hired to respected personnel guys.

Al built this thing, but he never let it evolve to keep pace with the rest of the league. McKenzie is gonna run things the way they are supposed to be run.

Wang obviously has the athleticism needed in Knapp's blocking scheme. Honestly, I don't see Wang making much of an impact, but stranger things have happened. As far as lightning striking twice with Bergstrom? We can only hope. If he wants to live up to what Veldheer has accomplished, he has to be VERY good.
