AboutDarrel Expertise Long time Raider fan who has bled silver and black for over 30 years. Make it out to Oakland from NY City, at least once a year to see the boys play. Can answer just about anything regarding the Raiders, even dating back to what their original name was going to be. Might be able to help with other NFL stuff/rules etc...
Expert: Darrel Date: 2/15/2006 Subject: QB situation and the draft
Question What is your take on Kerry Collins?
Realistically, who do you see us going after in the draft? What/who would be smart picks for the Raiders (what/who should they focus on)?
Not sure if you answer these type of questions, but would appreciate hearing someone's opinion on it. Thanks.
Answer I think the Raiders will have Kerry Collins back as QB in 2006 with a reduced contract. He's okay for a strong defensive team, which this team isn't. As far as who to take, I'd take the best defender available at the spot they pick, especially a linebacker.
