In the offseason, Davis made an attempt to force Kiffin to resign; failing in that, he stripped Kiffin of much of his authority, including the right to make changes among the assistants.
Decent article in general but this statement pisses me off. There is zero proof these rumors are true, yet this guy passes it off as fact. Bad journalism. A simple "reportedly" would have made this legit.

A for effort, C- for execution.



Thanks 40!!

When you offer that kind of money to a draft pick, it’s easy to make a deal. Other teams around the league will not like it because it will probably force other contracts for first-round picks higher, but Davis has never been terribly concerned about the rest of the league.
Not true at all. It was Davis that brought the owners back to the table to get the last CBA signed. Davis is a maverick but he cares a great deal about the league.

I agree... Kiffin has spoke of each drafted player, as if they were what HE needed to fikt into HIS system... he is either good with the media, or the media don't knopw what to report, and report what they want

thankss for the link bro

These moves, except for the Harris signing, will make the Raiders a more exciting team, but will they be enough to make them a playoff team in what may be Davis’s last hurrah? Probably not, but you have to give him an A for effort.

ah... it looks like Dickey drank his haterade again this morning...

I want to second this statement... Dickey and the rest of the bay area media are always looking to paint the Raiders in a dark cloud.

I didn't either. Last I knew he was using a walker.

While I certainly don't agree with much of what he does, I wish him the best. It has to be tough losing your mobility like that. At least his mind is still sharp by all accounts.
