some names but is -- someone or a couple of guys blue Raiders might have on the radar. To see that can fit into the slot or Cedric Benson one of these guys that haveoffered a contract yes he did say that the Packers and the Raiders kind of kick the tires on I'm a little bit but nothing more than that. He would as a pure player. Be the perfect. Next step for Michael Bush he's that three yards and a cloud of dust and that is the greatest need.

When -- sort of talking about okay what about is coming in for the veteran's minimum -- that one year and proving yourself that way he didn't. And like a -- that a little bit -- I wanna compare the Raiders in the 49ers they've both had similar situations the niners. Didn't get a deal done with the jungles and but the Raiders did is Reggie McKenzie. Doing things the right way for the silver and black right as he had a tougher chore that I think the 49ers. It depends on right now with your definition of right where he is to will talk but that in January if -- the playoffs and that is the right way but but he is rebuilding this franchise from within and and that first press conference when he said his first order of business was to get a lot of these out of whack contracts. In order. So that's where they stand right now he is basically rebuilding this team. In an image of Mark Davis is given carte Blanche to do.

Is that these guys feel going to be kind of swept the side in his shoes -- I think they they realized that the focus has to be on improving the product. I mean I think make all the slogans of the battle come along if they have a product that's. We can be proud that they haven't had that in a while they really understand that that the Raiders of 1970 tonight and early eighties haven't been around for a long time. When when he came back in the early part of this well late nineties they were better. But they didn't maintain it so I think they know they realize they have to for the kind of started -- in building making a better football team also a better organization bringing into the 21 century. Yeah and but I also think -- that thing too though that as long as mark davis' is around and part of it that stuff is gonna live because I've talked to him. The night that the LA kings won the Stanley Cup in union there'd been some contentious relationship with without and with -- acknowledge when they change colors. The first thing that Mark Davis told me was. The silver and black just one baby so they're very cognizant. Of things like that -- Gutierrez money pool -
