Let us count the waysKyle Terada-USA TODAY SportsNFL schedules are usually not much more than a nice bit of info to organize our lives as football fans. We want to know how the seasons will look so we can plan out that four or so months. This year¡¯s schedule was a whole lot more. The usual ¡®hey, look at that¡¯ was more like ¡®Holy sh*t, shield your eyes!¡¯.I¡¯m not talking about the strength of schedule either. That¡¯s not news. We¡¯ve known that since the final game of the 2018 season was played. On paper the Raiders have the NFL¡¯s toughest schedule. It is what it is. It¡¯s a formula and has nothing to do with the NFL hating the Raiders.What I¡¯m talking about it the stuff we learned yesterday. The actual dates, times, and order of the games. That¡¯s where the schedule makers can do their worst, if they want to. And from the looks of it, they really cracked their knuckles and put together a true masterpiece of fuuuuuh Cuuuuuuue.Tyler and I discuss in our latest Silver & Black Pridecast:You can also read about it in my Ten observations on Raiders 2019 scheduleYou have to think that Mark Davis dragging out his charade about playing someplace other than Oakland well into Roger Goodell¡¯s soft deadline had something to do with this. Making an NFL schedule isn¡¯t easy. Put constraints on that process, and they are not inclined to do you any favors.Also see:Raiders schedule 2019: Game-by-game predictionsYou can subscribe to the Silver & Black Pride podcast network at the below links:Apple podcastsGoogle podcastsGoogle playSpotifyStitcherFollow @LeviDamien With the 24th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the Oakland Raiders selected Josh Jacobs."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Raiders StoriesScheduleRosterStatsYahoo Raiders NewsYahoo Raiders Team PageYahoo Raiders ReportYahoo Raiders Depth ChartYahoo Raiders TransactionsYahoo Raiders PhotosOdds About Masthead Community Guidelines StubHub ✕2019 NFL Draft: Raiders draft Alabama RB Josh Jacobs New,93commentsWith the 24th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the Oakland Raiders selected Josh Jacobs. PDTShareTweetShareShare2019 NFL Draft: Raiders draft Alabama RB Josh Jacobs Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsWith the 24th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the Raiders selected Alabama running back Josh Jacobs. The consensus top running back in the draft will step-in as Marshawn Lynch¡¯s replacement in Oakland, and gives Jon Gruden a three down back that can run between the tackles, catch passes, and block at a high level. Mike Mayock¡¯s former coworker Daniel Jeremiah had Jacobs as his 8th overall prospect in the draft, so the Silver & Black got good value at 24 overall. Jacobs split carries at Alabama Frostee Rucker Jersey , but that is also a good thing because he has less tread on his tires with just 251 carries in three seasons. Jacobs rushed for 640 yards and 11 touchdowns this past season with the Crimson Tide averaging 5.3 yards per carry. The addition of Jacobs gives Gruden another dynamic weapon, one that should complement Jalen Richard nicely. The Silver & Black will next select with the 27th overall pick.
