check Steve Corkran.
Say what you want about Hue and Al, but they gave us a nice offensive foundation. Reggie and Allen added some great pieces to compliment it this year with Brisel, Bergstrom and Criner.

We must contain our Pryor Boners unlike Cork.

Raiders just finished first open OTA. Carson Palmer looked sharp, Terrelle Pryor looked OK and rookie WR Criner looked like a keeper |

Palmer deliberately going through reads, with Knapp in his ear after every throw teaching the new offense. Just zipped nice one to Calhoun
Levi Damien @LeviDamien
Tarver is very hands on as DC. Throwing passes in INT drill and pushing the pads in footwork drills.
Levi Damien @LeviDamien
Ausberry running 2nd team but he's bulked up and is catching everything in sight.
As good as the Oakland Raiders looked in practice today, Carson Palmer may have looked the best. #RaiderNation, big season ahead. #NFLVR |

Criner with third straight spectacular catch. Hauls in tipped pass in heavy traffic. Raiders might be onto something with this kid.
Levi Damien @LeviDamien
Criner continues the amazing catches just beat Pat Lee for long over shoulder catch. He's ridiculous.
Steve Corkran @CorkOnTheNFL
Juror Criner with unbelievable catch of Carson Palmer pass in double coverage. Turned sure pick into touchdown.
Steve Corkran @CorkOnTheNFL
Juron Criner with nice catch of Terrelle Pryor pass that was thrown well behind Criner. Great adjustment by Criner.
Steve Corkran @CorkOnTheNFL
Juron Criner with over-the-shoulder catch of deep throw. He catches everything, makes difficult catch look routine. Wow! |

Criner sounds like a nice addition. Hopefully he knows how to use that big body not only for big plays but for being a possession WR. I mean he's huge, not that fast, and has hands? That screams possession. Gem.

Reminds me of all the hype Moore was getting last year about making acrobatic catches and burning Routt at camp and he turned out alright. In the words of Hue Jackson, "Wow! He's a tremendous young player,". Can't wait till preseason.

| Quote: | The last of Criner's big plays came on a sideline throw by Terrelle Pryor that carried between 55 and 60 yards in the air, with cornerback Pat Lee the victim.
On a 50-yard heave from Carson Palmer into the end zone, Criner beat the coverage of DeMarcus Van Dyke and safety Tyvon Branch with a tumbling catch that brought hoots and shouts from his teammates.
On a fairly basic route over the middle, Criner somehow stopped himself to reach back and catch a Pryor pass that had been thrown behind him.

Love hearing about Pryor. Ive been one of his biggest supporters and truly believe that we may have a gem if he works hard and we develop him correctly.
Also told you guys that Criner was going to be a steal. Hes exactly what we need at the WR position. Big, strong, possession WR that can make clutch catches and win a battle for a jump ball. Hes got a big role on this team imo.

On Criner it makes sense reading the negatives on Foles. He was able to be productive in an environment where he had to fight for a lot of balls.
Nick Foles negatives
"Statistics are heavily padded from playing in a gimmicky offense featuring very simple reads. Shaky decision maker — does not play with confidence. Gets panicked in the pocket and forces the ball. Tends to hang the ball in the air and makes his receivers work hard for it. Spotty accuracy — spins a loose wobbler and ball placement is consistently off the mark. Throws to spots." |
