Two Starters Lost For The Season: Leaves Gapping Hole

My appologies for the live blog the mobile blogging software is suspect... Losing Oneal might be one of the larger blows to this team in a while. As is well documented on this blog he was one of my favorite to watch. The only thing that saves us partly is having a good FB still healthy who is also very good. The loss of Carter not only thrust Curry back outside but thinned an already weak WR spot even more. Koren Robinson comes to my mind as the best possible signing we could make. Talented player with needed return skills. He also finally appears to have gotten his head right. I heard him ok the Monty show a couple weeks ago and he really has focused on his family and God. It is possible it was just talk but he seemed very geniune. He would immediatey help us on kick returns and is a viable option at WR. I wouldn't believe we could pass up the opportunity to help in two areas when he so clearly fits both. Coop, Spires and Irons were cut a clear sign we replaced Coop on special tea...

Jarrod Cooper Coming Back

Coop said he is working on his contract and will finish his career in the Silver & Black at The Commitment to Excellence Award Dinner. He also made a prediction of a "winning season" for the Raiders in 2008. Last time he made a prediction....Devin Hester. Don't mess with the Coop! I think most of us expected him to be back. When Cooper and Ekejiuba both play our special teams is great and when they don't it is horrible. He is basically our special teams captain and I look forward to watching him blow up return men for a few more seasons.
