Wow! I'll need to collect my thoughts on this. There were rumblings, because of Pete Carroll, but I didn't expect this.
If it’s short term I don’t mind it for the Raiders but if you are signing Geno for 5 years that would be a big mistake.
reply
If he gets a longer deal than Maxx, that would be a mistake.
reply
Short term deal would be optimal. Then you can draft a QB but don’t have to reach and even if you don’t get one this draft, you can get one next draft.
reply
Part of the idea is to get a jump start on free agency and be a more attractive location for the FA's to sign. That makes a lot of sense to me.
It also means they won't be chasing QB's at the start of free agency like the other bad teams from last year. They can start talking to the best guys at other positions before other teams get to them.

Vegas is an attraction

You get out to Vegas much? I made the drive from LA to LV once. Wasn’t as fun as I thought it would be. The next time I was in LA and wanted to make a quick jaunt to Vegas I flew.
Any idea which FAs they are targeting?
reply
No. I had mostly been hearing about the QB's and their interest in Higgins.
I would guess they'll try for Lockett or DK, whichever one Pete likes better.
