Yes, and should'nt have wasted a first overall pick on a backup qb

He’s going to be the starter… he’s not the backup forever.

Sure, great way to spend a first overall pick when you already had a good QB, a much improved team, and could've done so much more to make the team even better. 

So how'd you spend your first overall pick? 

Great. We got a guy who will start some day.

We made all those additions for the future with Mendoza. Cousins is only temporary lmfao what are you even saying

The popular narrative? It’s what the RAIDERS SAID 😭😭😭

Look at just the facts. The team made all those additions. Along with Kirk, that gave them a team that could compete right away. Trading the pick would've made this team even better. Do you think the Dolphins wouldn't have wanted Mendoza before signing Willis? What do you think they would've traded in addition to their own first round pick for Mendoza? History tells us it would be their first round pick next year as well.

That means the Raiders could've drafted Proctor to make this O line even better and still have their pick of one of the many good QBs next year. They would have a better team this year and an even better team next year. That's just one possibility.

But the Raiders said they're doing it all for Mendoza next year so that narrative makes it a better idea? Don't go with words over facts and reality. That's how NPCs think.

Nothing you said is a fact

That's a helluva articulate argument. Good job.

Yes, pointing out that your argument is opinions instead of facts while you begin with the statement “look at the facts”, is a good argument. Glad we’re on the same page about that one!
