The Raiders are done trading players this season. Until they’re not.That’s the message we’re getting out of Oakland these days
Youth Derek Carrier Jersey , where a lot of the team’s moves seem to be catching Jon Gruden by complete surprise.Gruden denied initial reports that said the team was shopping Amari Cooper. Then they traded him. Following the trade, rumors immediately swirled about who could be next to go, starting with quarterback Derek Carr. General Manager Reggie McKenzie wouldn’t say definitively that Carr was safe from the trade block, so Gruden tried getting out in front of it, telling ESPN’s Chris Mortensen that there won’t be any more trades. But with a big caveat.“I was quoted on what I said to Chris Mortensen

But sometimes, like I said, your plans change, whether you like it or not. You don’t know who’s going to call you and what they’re going to say. You really don’t. That goes in all phases of life. But I don’t see us making any more trades
Frostee Rucker Jersey , but I’ll never say never again to anybody. If I said never to you, I’m sorry. I don’t think I did.”Gruden added “Certainly I don’t see us trading our quarterback.”While it is very much hard to imagine Derek Carr is going anywhere — at least not before next week’s trade deadline — Gruden’s words leave the door wide open inviting other teams to make them an offer, with really no players completely untouchable.Amari Cooper was had for a first round pick, and honestly, the Raiders would have been foolish not to take that offer in this situation. What would it take to lure away someone like Karl Joseph? Or Gareon Conley
Authentic Leon Hall Jersey , who reports say several teams have sniffed around the past couple days. Both players have been benched by Gruden, so the it’s not out of the realm of possibility the Raiders could value a high pick more than the player.Follow @LeviDamienFive keys to the Raiders breaking the Broncos Victory eluded the Oakland Raiders against the Los Angeles Rams in the season opener. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos won a close game against the Seattle Seahawks. A win over the Broncos on the road would do wonders to quiet some of the noise surrounding the Raiders. Here are the keys to doing that.Derek Carr must re-master himself — When under pressure Carr becomes a shell of the quarterback he can be. He must quiet the footsteps and noise from ghosts in his mind and allow the play to develop. Pressure Case Keenum — The Broncos went out and got a journeyman at the quarterback position. The veteran is solid but when pressured he can play like an absolute dog. That means turnovers.Block number 58 — Von Miller had three sacks, two fumbles and one fumble recovery last week against the Seahawks. If there is one achilles heel to Miller’s game it’s run support. He doesn’t like to have fight off double teams in the run game and it nullifies his speed advantage.Establish the run — Broncos front seven is more of a speed and penetrating front, not necessarily ready to stand up to a pounding rushing attack. The Broncos are not a quick strike offense per se and if Keenum has to play from behind
Youth Johnny Townsend Jersey , he will put the ball up for grabs.Raiders must not beat themselves — before the half was over the Raiders had 8 penalties on offense and 10 total penalties for over 145 yards. This was during the stretch of the game they played well. Stats are empty numbers without points, and those penalties all hurt scoring chances. Jared Cook narrowly missed being a key to this game coming off 180 yards last week. He will be a safety blanket for Carr, because the whole world saw a Seahawks blocking tight end go for over 100 yards last week against these same Broncos.The Raiders and Broncos are old division rivals which means absolutely anything can happen.
