2009 Oakland Raiders

[Deadlift]

I think some of the stories of affletes being traded is somewhat interesting. Oakland now has superhuman (DE) Quentin Groves.

News: The Jaguars have traded Groves to the Raiders for an undisclosed draft pick, the Associated Press reports.
Spin: A second-round pick in 2008, Groves had 2.5 sacks as a rookie, but none last year for the Jags. He'll get a fresh start with the Raiders and a chnace to display the sort of pass-rushing skills he demonstrated in college.

I like that line -- Groves had 2.5 sacks as a rookie, but none last year. The word "but" makes it seem like 2.5 sacks is good. It should read "Groves had just 2.5 sacks as a rookie and none last year."

The Raiduhs must feel good to have such a productive overachiever coming to town.

I think that Jacksonville had the lowest amount of sacks last year. It has been said by the MSM a few times.

If Jacksonville doesn't want you, that's really saying something!
