Telesco drafted AP guys because AP's philosophy is how you build a winning team. Telesco has never seen this type of comradery before, and AP lead a defense that beat one of, if not, the best offense of all time
Thank you Hondo! Love your insider stories! Please keep them coming. The one about the two different coaches and the GM and player going to pay respect to the player’s relative much appreciated, very kind, too.
People don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care….. brother! Hondo that is EPIC! I have never heard that but it’s definitely the path I have always been on. Thank YOU for wording that for me. It’s now up on my wall in my office. Blessings man
I'm the only one that feels adain will be a good qb. He was put into a shit situation and played good ball under that circumstance, if he played ok with that debacle then imagine what he can do with full summer and focus knowing he is numer 1 qb unless knocked off. Don't have to Lamarr to win, be Aidan and play smart football and the wins will come. Now defenses, situations, route concepts, blocking assignments etc.. and you will win without superior athleticism in this league, be smart and prepared for all outcomes during the game.
Hondo for once I feel that actions taken by the Raiders during draft and otherwise everything has a purpose. Everything is explainable. Hope they deliver.
to the first person that emailed....cant just take a QB because he is a QB. There were no more QBs left by the time we picked so picking one later obviously they did not feel good bout any of them. It would have just been a wasted pick.
Bet it all that coach he's referring to is Urban Meyer. Lived in Jacksonville for a couple years and knew a groundskeeper and he said Urban treated everyone like they were far beneath him.
Them moving the SB to the week after definitely puts complications into my plans. I got married the weekend after Superbowl. Now the Superbowl is my wedding anniversary weekend, EVERY YEAR!! BOOO :)
Well the Raiders did kinda telegraph what they wanted to do. Rumors were heavy that they wanted to draft a quarterback in the first round. Telesco basically confirmed that in his post draft interviews. It just so happened that six QB’s went in the top twelve. That was a surprise. They couldn’t telegraph the Bowers pick because of the way the first round played out.
6 in the top 12 were not a surprise at all. We just didn't want to trade up. If you want to be at the top of a draft you either have to sacrifice by tanking in the regular season or by trading quite a bit to move up.
It’s as simple as this if one of the QBs drafted on day 3 pan out to be better than what we currently have and AOC flames out that’ll be the reason AP and Telesco are fired
Using your FAILED Logic..... WHERE are all of the firings of HCs and GMs this off season? 4th round Aiden O'Connell outplayed all of the rookie QB in 2023 except Stroud
It makes the most sense to start Minshew and give Aidan a year to sharpen his craft unless Aidan all of a sudden goes crazy and you cant take him off the field. Dude was thrust into action year one because all the other QBs were trash. I want the QB that has the clutch gene, and Minshew is the only one thats shown that. Aidan failed at that last year but he could unleash it with a little seasoning.
@@rifflicks Nice try Opie, O'Connell played like O'Connell played. I'm pretty sure he was asked to throw picks on game winning drives. I have faith in both QBs. Only one has proven anything so far so if Aidan is given the keys, he's going earn it. I don't see him dunking on Minshew when Davante is either avoiding talking about Aidan or talking about qualities none of us have seen out of Aidan
After you struggled to understand and properly answer the first email during another long a** lecture and rant I gave up.. I'll try again tomorrow maybe you'll have something to actually report.
I had an ad before it started. 12 minutes in to the podcast and no more ads. I am watching on my tablet. Where are you viewing it? When I put it on my TV I get more ads
IF I HEAR ONE MORE TIME THAT WE SHOULD HAVE TRADED UP FOR A QB I'M GOING TO GO CRAZY...THEY TRIED AND NOTHING WAS THERE. MOVE ON....
I don’t think they were trippin on a qb at all. AOC is the man
I really don’t understand why that is such a hard concept for people to understand lol
I couldn’t agree more!!!!!!!!!
It's because they don't trust Aiden. I cannot understand why. He's really a top rated QB.
Agreed. Time to move on.
Man I hopw we start winning just for the notion of keeping GM and Coach together for the next 10 years

Thanks Mr. Hondo. Always enjoy my Raiders fix!!!
I hope my kids one day talk about me like Hondo talks about his dad.
I agree... Me too!
Raider Nation! We gotta get the likes up on Hondo's videos! Best Raiders coverage out there
Hondo for President!,,
Not just the football, I love the life lessons he gives ! Good person!

AOC will develop into a top 10 QB with some more experience
And your not the only one that feels that way about Aiden O'Connell cause I feel the same way!!!🎉
Great talk👍
I thought he was going to answer email???
Top 50! Let's go Raiders!!!

Great pod!
Now that paints a picture! Mark Davis and Tom Telesco are Viagra for the spiritual soul of the team. Love me my Hondoisms.

Dang Hondo, ads have increased exponentially, along with your viewers😂
Why are we awake so early?!? I have medical things that trigger insomnia. I wonder if Hondo is still on Draft & East Coast Time???
Hondo does post early 😂
I wonder what coach he was talking about 😂
I’ll say it for you uncle Hondo, McDaniels didn’t like his crew cut.
I love watching Hondo but it’s starting to feel like lectures when answering questions.
What email address do we send questions to? Thanks in advance

He's a Democrat which means he out there voting like a dead madman right now
