agreed. doesn’t brush off questions… meaningful, logical, respectful, while not telling EVERYTHING. i’m sure if he stays as coach for a few years. this kind of press conference will start to be a little routine. But AP will still bring the energy

[@UnknownRaiderGuy]

The Autumn Wind is a pirate Blustering in from sea, With a rollicking song, he sweeps along, Swaggering boisterously. His face is weather beaten. He wears a hooded sash, With a silver hat about his head, And a bristling black mustache. He growls as he storms the country, A villain big and bold. And the trees all shake and quiver and quake, As he robs Mahomes of his gold. The Autumn Wind is a raider, Pillaging just for fun. He'll knock you 'round and upside down And laugh when he's conquered and won.

DOMINATED THE DRAFT...GO RAIDERS!!!

[@billlozier5551]

Did the Raiders dominate the draft? Who says? Raiders got good maybe great players but we'll see. They did not get a QB so badly desired. As usual the Nation is getting their hopes up before spring training. Let's try to stay upbeat but realistic like AP.

[@patrickfouhy9102]

I'm glad he said Brock was the surprise. I think too many people are treating the Brock pick as a consolation prize. The dude is THE prize for this team. In my opinion, the only way you don't take Bowers at that spot is if the best QB on your board fell to you, and even then it would be hard to pass up on a guy like him.

[@mikedowns3195]

Did, everybody here it, so we know it from the coach's mouth, AOC is the starter unless he loses it.
