True. The draft is a crap shoot even when teams have done their homework and sat down at the table with the GM, HC, OC and DC. That being said when we draft Al sits down with Al and decides who to draft then he sits down with his HC and tells him who he will draft! The Raiderway does not work anymore Raider Nation.

NO offense but I think this is crap; it's not a crap shoot; you know what makes it a crap shoot? the NFL combines.

I've seen guys like Vernon Gholston recently and dozens of QB's that werent' even that good in college make millions because Mel Kiper and ESPN through the NFL combines annoint some of these guys.

John Madden said it best; who the heck cares about the combines; you watch guys in gym shorts in an A/C gym doing 40 yard sprints and that is the measurement? throw away 3-4 years of game film? come on.

The NFL combines are about one thing; being an athlete; all sports are obsessed with it. I want football players.

The Raiders could have drafted the best player I've seen in several years in Adrian Peterson, and one of the most dominating college WR at Pitt in the last 2 decades in Larry Fitzgerald, but instead they got Russell and Gallery.

If you follow the NFL combines; yes the draft is a crapshoot.
