my apologies...I thought he was a 5th. I do watch the games and I have been more concerned about Barry Sims. I think we can live with Stu but our bigger weakness is left tackle. I guess I must be wrong though, we brought in Darion Davis to replace Stu, and we cut Cooper to make a spot for B. J. Ward also to replace Stu. The drafting of Erik Framton. These moves show that management is trying hard to replace him. Thank you for correcting me. The blasting of our players has been bothering me for quite a while. That Gallery is trash and we should cut him, that Janikowski is ****ty and we should cut him, that if only we trade Walter, everything will be ok. I felt that Schweigert was one of our lesser problems but obviously I was the only one in the Raider nation that believed we can ever be a playoff contender with him on the team. To me this year is a rebuilding year from the 2-14 of last year and I don't believe we will do it through last second trades. In my opinion, we are several years from being a legitament playoff contender and before that happens Schweigert will be gone as well as McCown, Culpepper, Sims, and Sapp. I know that Al Davis wants to win now, but I hope that Lane Kiffin is allowed to build piece by piece rather than have fire sale trades and moves to win now. Both McCown and Culpepper have no future past this year and I feel that getting players to win this year is the wrong approach. As a Raider fan that remembers when Blanda, Stabler, and Otis Sistrunk were raiders I too am impatient for us to win another Super Bowl, but making moves in desperation to win an extra game or two this year is not the approach I would take. Again my apologies for not hating Scheigert; clearly I was wrong...he was responsible for 2-14 last year and our total disaster against San Diego. We should immediately trade Schweigert for Tomlinson and Merriman.
