Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

The Oakland Raiders signed Adam Archuleta to a contract on Monday in a move to add depth to their defense.

Archuleta was at the Raiders facility Monday morning and left with trainer Rod Martin to take a physical. Archuleta was expected to take part in the night practice. Oakland released safety Greg Wesley to make room on the roster.

Associated Press

That was quick for Wesley.

Kind of a suprise

I thought he’d contend for a starting spot there. He was so anxious to get released by the Chiefs too. Now he’s gonna have to scrape just to make a team roster. Say what you will about Herm, I think he knows what he’s doing with the secondary.

I liked Wesley

but part of me thinks “it serves you right, goin’ to the Faders” =)

Archuleta's Horrible

I know that Greg Wesley’s closer to the end of his career than the beginning, but he’s still a better safety than Archuleta. All that dude does well is fill out the uniform…overall he’s a terrible football player. Wesley will find a job somewhere I’m betting.

Supporting the lesser of two evils is still supporting something evil.

And I Think The Release

Is more about what a joke the Raiders personnel department (aka Al Davis) is rather than a negative reflection on Wesley.

Seriously

I’d take Wesley over Archuleta any day.

Oh well… at least we likely won’t face Wesley 2x a year now. Smooth move Jokeland.

Archuleta

Was signed in Oakland to play Linebacker, they were just making roster room, not necessarily a statement saying Wesley isn’t as good of a player, but more that they need help in other areas.

Is that definite?

I heard safety or linebacker – neither are definite.

If That's The Case

They would done just as well to move Wesley to linebacker. Archuleta’s a terrible tackler.
