Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

OK. But I am referring to FA Packer TEs, not Raiders. The offense has remained the same, the TE changed, making the comparison interesting at least.
My point is that it took Cook more than seven plus games to get integrated. Same will be true (maybe even more with Hundley now) for Bennett.

Recent Cook report:
Jared Cook's versatility at tight end proving 'crucial' for Raiders

Weird, they have him listed as having 3. I thought he had 5

Still, I expect every starter and backup to play as well or better than the best person at his position in the NFL, or at least at pro bowl level, so he's way short.

its just like finely that one season
for about 5 games in a row they said he had 4 drops on the season, and he had about 2 drops in each one of those 5 games, plus the 4 they mentioned, but they just kept saying four drops. in fact at one point they lowered the number to 3 on the year
bennett has had many more then just 3 drops. its like if they get 2 hands on the ball they count it as a swatted down pass instead of a drop
i also don't think they count it as a drop if the guy only gets one hand on it, or he gets no hands on it but it hits him in the face or chest, or if they make no attempt at all to catch a catch-able ball
Cook wasn't all that great either. Bennett is the kind of TE we need; He just didn't play up to expectations. In addition to having problems staying healthy, Cook's thing was going deep. What we needed in a TE is a big target possession type guy who can also block. Bennett should have been that - if he just didn't drop so damn many passes.
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
I'd rather flood the field with WR deep threats and have my TE come underneath for a first down if none of the WRs get open, especially if the TE isn't anything special as a blocker.

I still say they coulda signed both Cook and Bennett.
The final chapter in Bennett's career has not been written. Who the hell knows, he may just be down because Rodgers is out. Maybe Hotrod throws him a few TD passes in the next coupla weeks and he finds his mojo again. Hell, Bert retired at least 6 years in a row.

I had a brain malfunction. I knew it was Oakland, but was thinking they moved their stadium, which would be S.F., but maybe that is wrong too
Worse case; we have Kendricks, who is light years better than the Plodder...and about 7MIL more to spend on a TE if TT chooses to do so
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
