    yep one good draft gets us back to the playoffs,two good drafts makes us contenders been saying that forever reggie had one good draft and squandered it away after that, gruden/mayock squandered 3 drafts and a massive amount of draft capital (1st/2nd rd picks) last yr we had no 1st or 2nds due to adams trade,parham looks good though and munford could turn into something,zamir white was wasted due to jj eating almost all of the work, i like 2023 draft we may have 4 or 5 good ones and love the guard in udfa too

    Need the QB. The QB isn't currently on the roster and unless this regime is a mistake, the future won't be on it next year either.

    I do not think Reggie McKenzie drafting was not that bad compared to Jon Gruden drafting....

    Even Amari Cooper is still playing some good football and made 4 pro-bowls....was a Reggie pick

    We did pretty well in the 11th and 12th rounds in 1979. Willie was a great pass rusher. Bruce a great tackle, and Reggie, he was an Aaron Donald type of run defender before Donald was born.

    2 Willie Jones DE Florida State
    6a. Ira Matthews KR Wisconsin
    6b. Henry Williams DB San Diego State

    I’m really concerned about Wilson’s foot. The descriptions I’ve read about his injury have seemed a bit vague. He supposedly hurt it pushing off on the snap. Missed like the last 5 games. I read there’s hardware in there still that needs to come out? Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t like it currently

    Looks like he had surgery, and has had hardware removed

    Doesn’t seem like a huge deal at this point.

    Wilson suffered a season-ending foot injury on Nov. 12 in a game against Kansas and underwent surgery to fix it on Nov. 21. His recent procedure occurred on March 21, per the letter from Anderson, who informed NFL teams that he's advised Wilson not to sweat for 15-20 days while his incision heals. Anderson's letter indicated that Wilson has "responded extremely well and has done a great job with the rehab program."
    Rapoport reported Wilson plans to hold a workout for teams in mid-April, which could help solidify the highly touted pass rusher's draft stock.
    Wilson was unable to perform any of the on-field drills or the other workouts earlier this month at the NFL Scouting Combine, except for the bench press, where he put up 23 reps. The 6-foot-6, 271-pound Wilson measured in with nearly 36-inch arms and impressed in team interviews at the combine, according to NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah.
    After transferring from Texas A&M, Wilson spent his final three college seasons at Texas Tech. He led the Red Raiders in sacks and tackles for loss in each of the past two seasons, despite missing the final three games in 2022. Wilson was named a second-team Associated Press All-American and first-team all-conference selection last season.

    Wilson suffered a foot injury during his time at Texas Tech. The injury was a major red flag for some teams in the NFL Draft. However, the Raiders believe in Wilson’s health. In turn, Wilson is ready to prove Las Vegas right for believing in him, via Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee.

    “I feel great,” Wilson said.
