Any truth to this? Only other thing I can find is on a Vikings board.

If there is any truth to this, do you think the raiders told him he will be cut and are giving him the chance to do this instead? I would think James Jones would be breaking this news if it were true

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

I think the Raiders still have his rights till the end of the season

I'd put Cobb on IR and see if we can get Jordy for a conditional 7th.

If true, I'm thinking it's because Nelson is thinking I signed for a second year with this team and they're rebuilding and I can't take it... if he stays active, I think they'll release his contract and that MIGHT make him more interested in keep playing... to play for a team that isn't rebuilding.

I still think Rodgers/Nelson in the redzone could have helped this team a hell of a lot... as they just seem to be able to force it being on the same page, even when the CB has good coverage... he might be the red zone specialist. Though I honestly don't think Gute will sign him, just talking.

When have I ever lamented our lost players on this forum? And please don't try and say I hate anyone on this team. I questioned the choice of Cobb over Nelson. Some people will fight to the end that management made the right choice even with its obvious that Cobb is a shell of his former self and even on a shitty Raiders team it Jordy is still outperforming him.
