Sio Moore Cut By The Raiders

Wow. I knew he had been unpopular with the coaching staff there (he seems to be their version of Asamoah in that no one is quite sure of the reason), but didn't expect that.

Even though I'm not a "bring him home" type, I'd definitely be keen on us picking him up as a backup for Durant, who is very good but questionable from a reliability standpoint.

Nothing wrong with that. We could use an upgrade over Bradford, and probably even Stupar.

Similar skill set but Moore is bigger and dude has that dog ... I just like players with that attitude... I think they def add toughness

He is probably a better pass rusher also

I was making fun of the situation...lol

EDIT: I was high on drafting him out of college. You forgot Jbo, we already discussed it.

This guy was my no.2 coverage olb after Arthur brown a few years ago. I would definitely take a punt on this guy as the backup to durant at will. With Spruill no longer on the roster we don't really have a legit will with Bartu probably being the backup at this stage and he lacks ideal quickness

One big concern is the Raiders have Ken Norton as their defensive coordinator - the same guy that coached under Quinn the last two years in Seattle. If Norton didn't want him, then Quinn probably wont either. Apparently it's reported he has maturity issues and isn't reliable.

I absolutely LOVE Sio and would be ecstatic if we got him. Potential to be a blue chip for this defense for years to come. Serious. Perfect skillset for what Quinn seems to look for in LBs, good in coverage, tons of pass rush potential, violent hitter...seriously, I'm nearly as excited about possibly getting him as if Khalil Mack were cut. Nearly. Watch some Raiders games.

I think that it was more of a problem between him and Jack Del Rio based on how Del Rio has responded to questions about Moore.
