This is a team that has many holes, but we both agree.
Fernando Mendoza, I think, is just a game-changer for organization, and I think the whole vibe has shifted.
Just everyone that's been interviewed and talked about it, it's just changed everything, and that's why we talk how important it is, right?
It's the CEO of a billion-dollar company, the quarterback.
It really is, by far, the most important position in sports, and they got a guy that we just all think is an absolute home run off the field, like just seems like a genuine great person, hard worker.
We all know the weaknesses he has at the talent level.
That's why you have the best coaching.
Like, they can improve all that.
I mean, especially having Tom Brady in the building with him who desperately wants this kid to succeed.
Like, this is Tom Brady's baby, apparently.
Like, they're in constant contact talking all the time.
So I can't say enough how much I love this pick for this Raiders team.
And I'm just so happy they got him.
Like, in another life, he's on the Jets right now, and I'm just miserable about it because I think it's a total waste for this Jets team.
But for this team, on the projection of two, three-year build โ
I love it.
I know a couple Raiders fans complained because I think they went edge and then safety after they took Fernando Mendoza.
Guys, this is what you want.
You want them taking best available.
You don't want them reaching for professional needs.
