A lot of board members were hyping him up
So far, not very good. No forced fumbles, 0 sacks 26 tackles in 6 games.
Probably a bit premature, but he was pinned as a can't miss prospect.
He obviously needs to start playing better.
The only Mack I care about is Alex. Statistics mean nothing compared to a broken leg.

I think this too sometimes. If its true hats off to whatever is behind that keyboard.
lol, I remember the Mack/ Sammy Watkins crew leading up to the draft completely bashing anyone who dared to suggest that either would be bad value selections at pick 3.
I would like to see what senor fantastico has to say because i know he lives in Cali and prob has heard more about him than I have.

he is a rookie who plays on a bad team and is 6 games in. pretty sure that no judgement can be made either way....

So the "too early to judge" model of patience used for Joeckel does not apply to "non-rec's"?

Bridgewater was terrible value at #3. Stop throwing stones from the broken glass house of yours.
Mack isn't playing good?
He was on the QB's tail for the first few weeks almost every play. PFF gave him a score of +11, which was about 4 more points than any other rookie in the first round.
Based on my eye test he isn't doing bad, but he also isn't showing up on the stat sheet and that needs to change. Reminds me very much of Jeremy Mincey, a guy who lived in the backfield but could only make the play 50% of the time.

All I can go by are stats. I don't watch the Raiders play. If he is playing good then so be it.
Hes not too bad for a rookier on the raiders. Give him time, but he could crash and burn too who knows yet?
I was a guy who was really high on Mack. I was madder than hell when the Jags took Bortles over Mack in the draft.
My GM resume is officially screwed.

LOL a franchise QB is never bad value in the top 5.

If you can trade back and get him cheaper while acquiring picks, then you would not have maximized value. You knew to this?
Also, Bridgewater looks terrible.
