The 2016 were one of the feel-good stories of the NFL. General manager Reggie McKenzie was named NFL Executive of Miami Marlins Custom Jersey the Year after an arduous rebuilding proce s culminated with the end of a 14-year playoff drought and the number two seed in the AFC. The 12 regular season wins were the franchise's most since 2000. Playoff succe s eluded the Raiders with quarterback , who finished tied for third in the MVP voting, lost late in the season to a broken leg.The Raiders entered 2017 as a popular pick to dethrone the Super Bowl champion . After a disappointing 6-10 season, Jon Gruden was coaxed out of the "Monday Night Football'' broadcast booth after a nine-year hiatus to return to coaching with a 10-year, $100 million contract from Raiders owner Mark Davis. The type of money given to Gruden, who previously coached the Raiders 1998-2001, suggests he is the organization's main power broker although McKenzie has retained the title of general manager. More NFL The 2016 season seems like a football lifetime ago in Oakland. Gruden's second stint with the Raiders is off to a rocky start with a 1-5 record. Older players were targeted in free agency in an effort to be more competitive than last season. The oldest opening day roster in recent years with an average age of 27.4 years was a sembled according to PhillyVoice.com's Jimmy Kempski, whose data goes back to 2012.It seems like anything connected to McKenzie is being shown the door. Most notably, 2016 NFL Defensive Player of the Year , who was engaged in a contract dispute that Miami Marlins Jersey didn't appear to have an end in sight, was traded to the on Labor Day weekend. The Bears gave up their next two first round picks and Mack got the blockbuster contract making him the NFL's highest paid non-quarterback that the Raiders wouldn't. 15 players from McKenzie's 2014-2017 draft cla ses have been released, traded or left via free agency since Gruden was hired in January. The Raiders appear to be in complete teardown mode after this week's trade of wide receiver , 2015's fourth overall pick, to the for a 2019 first round pick. Gruden reportedly told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that nobody else would be traded after Cooper, contradicting McKenzie, who said no one is untouchable. 2017 first-round pick , who was recently benched at cornerback, is drawing interest from other teams ahead of the October 30 trading deadline according to CBS Sports Insider Jason LaCanfora. 2016 first-round pick is also rumored to be on the trading block. The safety has gotten into Gruden's doghouse.What About Derek Carr?Gruden's dismantling of the Raiders has prompted speculation that Carr will be gone in 2019. Carr hasn't thrived under Gruden's tutelage. Although Carr is second in the NFL with a 71.7 completion percentage, his eight interceptions are tied for third most in the league. that his relationship with teammates is deteriorating and confidence in him internally is waning.Gruden has a reputation for being extremely demanding of his quarterbacks and souring on them quickly. The only one that lived up Gruden's high expectations was Rich Gannon. During their three years together in Oakland (1999-2001), the Raiders won the AFC West twice and Gannon earned Pro Bowl honors each season. Getting a tremendous value for Cooper could provide justification for the Raiders to demand a king's ransom in order to deal Carr. It wasn't too long ago that Carr was drawing comparisons to three-time NFL MVP . Obviously, Carr hasn't done much to validate the comparison since his own MVP candidacy.The much-maligned was traded in 2009 after his third NFL season, to the Bears with a 2009 fifth round pick for quarterback Kyle Orton, 2009 first and third round picks, and a 2010 first round pick. trade in 2016 might be a better barometer of Jeff Locke Jersey what Oakland could get for Carr. The received a 2017 first round pick (14th overall) and a conditional 2018 fourth round pick from the after went down late in the preseason with a career threatening knee injury. The fourth round pick could have elevated to a third or second round pick under certain conditions, which weren't met.The remaining four years of the five-year, $125.025 million contract extension Carr signed in June 2017 to become the league's first $25 million per year player are reasonable with the recent explosion in quarterback salaries. Carr is under contract through the 2022 season for just over $78.5 million. The Raiders would pick up $15 million of 2019 salary cap room by trading Carr next offseason. There would be $7.5 million in dead money, a cap charge for a player no longer on the roster, relating to the signing bonus proration from Carr's 2019 through 2021 contract years. Gruden's track record Starlin Castro Jersey with the The trades have put the Raiders in a position to control the 2019 and 2020 NFL drafts with a bevy of picks and cap room to jumpstart a rebuild before the scheduled move to Las Vegas in 2020. The Raiders have five first round picks over the next two years. If the 2018 season ended today, the Raiders would have the fourth, 10th and 17th picks in the 2019 draft.Oakland has $125.22 million of 2019 cap commitments with 32 players under contract after the Cooper trade. Under offseason accounting rules, the top 51 salaries (i.e. cap numbers) matter. The 2019 salary cap will be in the $190 million neighborhood with a similar increase as in recent years. After factoring in a full complement of players counting against the cap and the carry over the existing cap space of approximately, $6.5 million, the Raiders should have right around $60 million of room in 2019.Gruden's track record with the Buccaneers after he a sumed complete control late in the 2003 season when general manager Rich McKay left because of a strained work relationship between he and Gruden should be a cause for concern. The draft cla ses under Gruden's direction produced one Tampa Bay pro bowler, offensive guard Davin Joseph. The 2006 23rd overall pick was named to the Pro Bowl in 2008 and 2011 during his eight seasons with the Buccaneers. 2008 20th overall pick didn't develop into a perennial Pro Bowl cornerback until Tampa Bay traded him. 2008 third-round pick participated in the 2016 season Pro Bowl as a replacement for center while playing for the . 2004 first-round pick Michael Clayton made the All-Rookie team after catching 80 pa ses for 1,193 yards with seven touchdowns. 2005 fifth overall pick Cadillac Williams won NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honors when he rushed for 1,178 yards. Neither had sustained NFL succe s. Williams' career was derailed by a torn patellar tendon in his right knee during his third season. Clayton never reached 500 receiving yards again during his eight-year NFL career.Defensive end Gaines Adams, the highest pick during Gruden's reign, never became an impact player. The Buccaneers traded him to the Bears during the middle of the 2009 season for a 2010 second-round pick. He pa sed away in 2010 Wei-Yin Chen Jersey because of cardiac arrest.Gruden didn't fare
