After the Raiders had hired away the Cowboys’ regional scout Jim Abrams to become their Director of College Scouting, Abram will be joined by another Cowboys scout, Walter Juliff according to an ESPN report.Juliff was a National scout for the Cowboys and he had been with the organization for 31 years (!). That means he was a scout in Dallas dating back to 1988; before Jerry Jones even bought the team. Before the days of Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith, and Michael Irvin.In fact, Irvin was drafted in Juliff’s first year as a Cowboys scout Womens Bo Jackson Jersey , Aikman the following year, and Smith the year after that, and two years after that they won the first of three Super Bowls in four years. While the Cowboys haven’t won the Super Bowl in the 23 years since, they have made the playoffs ten times and won the NFC West seven times, including three times in the past five years.Follow @LeviDamien Coach Jon Gruden found another former television analyst to help him on his rebuild of the Oakland Raiders.The Raiders hired former NFL Network draft guru Mike Mayock as their new general manager on Monday.Gruden had been searching for a general manager after the team fired Reggie McKenzie earlier in a 4-12 season that ended with a 35-3 loss to Kansas City on Sunday. It was an underwhelming return to the sideline for Gruden, who got a 10-year, $100 million contract to return for a second stint in Oakland after spending nine seasons as an analyst at ESPN.Gruden inherited McKenzie, who won the 2016 NFL executive of the year award for his rebuilding job after the death of late owner Al Davis in 2011. The pairing didn’t work as Gruden frequently criticized McKenzie’s recent drafts and got rid of many of those players.Now the Raiders are hoping for a better working relationship between Gruden and Mayock, who was widely respected as a draft analyst since 2006 but now will be responsible for helping to make the picks.Mayock has no experience in an NFL front office but will work with Gruden on upgrading a scouting and personnel department that struggled to find impact players in recent years.The Raiders will have three first-round picks in April’s draft. Oakland has its own pick Bo Jackson Jersey , which will be fourth in the draft, as well as first-rounders from Chicago and Dallas, which will be in the bottom 12 picks in the first round.Oakland acquired those picks by dealing McKenzie’s best two first-round picks from his seven-year tenure in Oakland. Star pass rusher Khalil Mack was traded to the Bears before the season for a package that included two first-round picks following a contract holdout, and receiver Amari Cooper was dealt during the season to the Cowboys for a 2019 first-rounder.Only 11 players drafted by McKenzie from 2012 to 2017 remain under contract with the Raiders, led by quarterback Derek Carr and right guard Gabe Jackson from the 2014 class, and 2016 first-round safety Karl Joseph and 2017 first-round cornerback Gareon Conley.The Raiders will have plenty of holes to fill this offseason following another disappointing campaign. Oakland has just one winning season in the past 16 years, going 12-4 under Jack Del Rio in 2016.But otherwise the team has experienced nothing but losing, posting the second-worst record in the NFL since the start of the 2003 season.This season was up there with some of the worst in that stretch. The Raiders allowed their most points (467) in a season since 1961 and set marks for franchise worsts in sacks (13) and yards per play allowed (6.27) as the absence of an impact pass rusher like Mack was felt all season.The offense had its own problems as a line featuring rookie tackles Kolton Miller and Brandon Parker for most of the season failed to protect Carr. Oakland allowed 52 sacks, its most since 2006 https://www.raiderslockerroom.com/authentic-antonio-brown-jersey , and Carr often struggled to find the time to get the ball downfield.While Carr showed some signs of improvement late in the season as he grew more comfortable in Gruden’s system, the offense lacked playmakers on the outside and a game-breaking running back.The Raiders were barely competitive for much of the season, losing nine games by at least 14 points, tied for the most lopsided losses in the NFL since New England had 10 in 1990.Oakland was outscored by 177 points on the season, the second-worst mark in the NFL to Arizona.
