The Oakland Raiders have signed two more draft

If we were to go back as far as 1945 and compare the winning percentages of all the teams in the NFL, the Raiders are the still the 3rd most winningest team in the NFL  with a record of 435-353-11 for a .551 winning percentage.

The Raiders were the first team in the NFL to have 16 consecutive winning seasons.  Only one team has more.

From 1965 to 1985, the Raiders had winning records in 19 of the 20 seasons.

No team has a better Monday Night Football record (the first 35 games played) 27-6-1

The Raiders boast a .500 or better record against 24 of the 31 teams in the NFL.

Given the history that this organization has, on occasion Nnamdi Asomugha  it may be necessary to remind the players, fans and members of the media, of where the Raiders have come from in order to accurately assess who they are as a team.

In the field Psychiatry, often a psychiatrist looks at the symptoms  Darren McFadden  a patient has and makes a diagnosis based on current behaviors, picture recognition, goals or dreams.

Again, I see this situation being applied to the Raiders.  In the 39 years from 1963 to 2002, the Raiders had 32 winning seasons.  Because of the last 7 seasons, the Raiders have been considered: the "laughingstock of the NFL", a ?joke of an organization", etc…  Several NFL analysts have been excessively critical and overtly disrespectful during several of the NFL drafts and some have gone as far as laughing in the face of Raiders players during interviews.  Too many media outlets have prescribed a treatment of verbal valium towards a healthy organization that has gone through a tough time

The new Oakland Raiders jerseys have signed two more draft picks to contracts.

The team announced deals with sixth-round linebacker Travis Goethel and seventh-round defence Darrius Heyward back Jeremy Ware on Thursday. The team has signed five of its nine draft picks.

The Raiders also did not sign defensive lineman Richard Seymour to a long-term deal by a deadline Thursday. The Raiders now will be unable to sign Seymour to a long-term deal until after the season because he is their franchise player.
