26 Running backs were chosen this year at the 2013 NFL draft. The difference between the first player selected (Giovani Bernard 37th) and the last player (Michael Cox 253rd) is very obvious. Bernard is expected to be in a time share for Cincinnati this year and he projects to take over in 2014 and Cox projects to be a practice squad attendee. READ MORE

The 2013 QB draft class is a sad group of individuals. It’s so sad that Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback coach Frank Scelfo has said that Blaine Gabbert would be the first quarterback chosen if he were in the draft this year.
There might not be a week one starter in the whole lot. If you expected to find your franchise quarterback in this year’s group then you didn’t do your homework. READ MORE

What Would Al Davis Do?

The first round of the 2013 NFL draft is upon us, and for the second straight year, arguably the most famous of all NFL GMs will not be making the trip to Radio City Music Hall in New York.
Allen Davis passed away Oct 8, 2011 from heart failure at his home in Oakland and and in doing so has left a void in every NFL fan and follower. Love or hate Al Davis you can't deny that he was the most well known owner in the league if not in all of professional sports in North America. He went from coordinator to head coach and GM to AFL commissioner to head of football operations to eventually ownership.
Three superbowl wins, and 4 AFC championships proves as evidence as Al's legacy. However, due to recent drafts (2007), a number of high draft pick busts (JaMarcus, Rolando) and his final move, a questionable 3rd round supplemental draft pick on Terrelle Pryor it had left Al as a punch line come draft day.
Now I am not here to judge a man who gave 60 years of his life to better a sport or on his ability to evaluate talent, (he did trade a coach, John Gruden, for two 1st round picks, two second round picks and $8 million in cash and then proceeded to make the superbowl the following season however eventually losing to the coach he had traded away) I'm just making the point that when the Oakland Raiders were on the clock during the first day it might have been the most exciting part of the draft just due to absolute uncertainty alone.
With many teams' picks already known or specific to 2 or 3 players, having Al and his passion for forty times is a sight that is surely missed. However, with his brother Jerry still writing the names on the cards there still may be a little unexpectedness left in the organization. Having four top 100 picks and ten picks in total in the draft there is plenty of opportunity for surprise.
The man who has been trying to fill Al Davis' shoes is 2nd year GM Reggie Mckenzie. Mckenzie's first draft as the Raiders' GM was 2012. In that year the silver and black's first pick wasn't until the 3rd round where he drafted Utah guard Tony Bergstrom with the 95th overall pick.
In Al Davis fashion here is a look at the fastest 40 times from the combine.
