BREAKING: Raiders Sign Edge K'Lavon Chaisson In NFL Free Agency After Tyree Wilson Injury News

[Music] we got some breaking news here on the Raiders report the Las Vegas Raiders have signed Edge rusher Kay Leon Chason yesterday Antonio Pierce spoke to the media and said that Tom Tesco was going to go out there and look for a little bit of extra defensive end help due to the injuries of Malcolm Co due to the injury to Tyrie Wilson we still don't know exactly how long Wilson's going to be out now for those that are watching us live today I'll kind of get into some of the details based on some of the conversations that I have had but for Kay Leon Chason I know there's going to be a lot of people that go Mitch well who exactly is this and why are you live why are you fired up I'm fired up about it because one Tom Tesco actually went out and he did something we've been sitting on so much salary cap money and just waiting around waiting around if you're not going to go out and extend some of these players that I thought you could extend you better go out try to make this defense the best it possibly can but I'm not going to sugarcoat this Caleb Chason has been a bust he was drafted in round one out of LSU and he has been a player that has not lived up to the hype at all so there's 0. one of Kay Leon Chason but I'm also going to say this and I'm not going to compare the two because they are different players at different positions but everybody thought that Jack Jones washed up everybody thought that Jack Jones was a bum he no way it was going to be a good move and I set up here and I go I believe in Antonio Pierce and if I'm going to believe in Antonio Pierce if I'm going to believe in Patrick Graham that I'm going to believe in this move here on top of that we also know that sometimes you just need a little bit of a chain of scenery Rob Leonard has worked magic with some of these players on the defensive line like a jius Robinson also Raiders linebacker coach Mike Caldwell was in Jacksonville sometimes guys just need a little bit of a change of scenery and what I'm going to do is I'm going to give you my grade on this signing and I think it's going to be a little bit higher than what some of y'all are going to anticipate but this is going to be the pin comment on today's show if you took time out of your day to watch watch this show I want a grade right here I'm if I'm going to sit up here and I'm going to scream commitment to Excellence about these players I think us as fans need to bring that exact same commitment to Excellence if you're going to ask for it you better bring it so give me an ABCD RF grade the signing of the Raiders going out and getting K lean Jason I'm going to give this a B+ grade I do think that there's some legit upside here and you know when I was live talking about my one-word reaction I did I said it's a B+ move we don't know what the money looks like yet also at the end of the show here we could talk about some other players that the Raiders could have potentially gone out and get but here's what I see I see a player that has legit first round Talent he was in a situation in Jacksonville that did not go well he had to deal with Urban Meyer he had to deal with all these different head coaches and had to deal with a lot of different DCS a lot of turnover in general which really made it difficult for him to I think just be able to go out there and do his thing so now what do you do you put a lot of talent you put a lot of talent next to a guy like Max Crosby and when you talk to a lot of the people that say what they do about C Leon Chason it's just he's not consistent enough he hasn't had somebody that's been able to put his arm around him and say hey this is exactly what you need to do the Raiders have that in Max they also have I think one of the best defensive coaching staffs in the National Football League led by Antonio Pierce led by Patrick Graham led by Rob Leonard led by Mike cwell the linebackers coach I believe in the Raiders coaching staff and I know for a fact K Leon chason's got some Talent I'm hoping one plus one it's going to equal a lot a lot of sacks for the Las Vegas Raiders coming up here though we're going to talk about Tyreek Wilson's injury a little bit we'll talk about Malcolm some of these players on the depth and I know there's a lot of people down in the comments saying well what about yique gway what about some of these other players we'll bring up some of those names and then there's still one other player out there that if I'm the Raiders I'm telling you right now I'd be interested in go on out and trading for him now if anybody out there's trying to optimize their finances I've been trying to save money for my wedding this entire year and shout out to Rocket money for being able to help me do that rocket money is a personal finance out

is putting all of those links for you guys down in the comments down in the description of today's show and I'm going to look at all y'all right now because I know a lot of people are dealing with this currently and I'm currently dealing with it I know right now that Direct TV stream has been effing around and I can't watch sports center I can't watch ESPN I couldn't watch a lot of football games you know what I'm G to send my bill to Rocket money and they did it for me like a year ago and I said hey I'm paying hundred I think I'm paying like $120 a month for cable they're going to take that and they ended up getting my phone or the bill I want to say down to like 60 or 70 bucks cuz it went on for 2 weeks if anybody's dealing with that problem right now you send that screenshot to rock and money and they're going to be able to help you out that's why I love this freaking app here so let's also talk about the other reasons why this move ended up happening Tyrie Wilson I spoke to somebody close to Wilson and basically he gave me a little bit of uh his knees obviously sore it sounds like it's a mild knee spray which is what Ian Rapaport reported yesterday it's just the they don't know the severity of the sprain from what I know right now work kind of hoping Raider fan should be hoping that it's what's known as like a grade one sprain which probably means he's only going to be out like one to two weeks I was told that it could be a grade two which if that ends up happening he's going to end up being on that short-term IR kind of like what Malcolm coun is but it's not going to be anything more than that this is not a season ending type of thing based on the information that I have received right now from Tyree Wilson's team but all I'm saying is you needed to be able to go out there and add a little bit more depth because Malcolm C he's out until at least week five but when you read the report from ESPN's Paul Gutierrez Gutierrez hints that there is a chance that Malcolm Coons can be out the entirety of the season so I know that the Raiders went out and got cbon chasing but here's the thing we need to go out and get somebody else like we were relying on Malcolm we were relying on Tyree Wilson and I love Charles Snowden in the preseason I think Charles Snowden is an awesome human being works his freaking tail off and it showed you that he deserved to at least get on that practice sad ended up getting promoted but if you're going to be in a division that's got Justin Herbert if you're going to be in a division that's got Shawn Payton if you're going to be in division with the back-to-back Super Bowl champs Patrick Mahomes and then you look at just all the other QBs that we about to be going up against you know what I mean like we got Lamar Jackson Bryce young I know hasn't looked good but he's still mobile enough deshun Watson same thing even a little bit later on in the season Derek Carr Trevor Lawrence Kurt Cousins Baker Mayfield Joe burrow I mean there are so many talented quarterbacks that we're going to be going up against so I'm telling youall right now I don't think that the Raiders should be done I think that the Raiders should go out and try to get another Edge and maybe it is somebody like a unique gque and when the Raiders went out and they made this move for K Leon Chason I think one of the top names that continuously got thrown out there was gway but here's the thing if unique gway is not healthy Kay Leon Jason is a good dude to go out there and try to get also if you believe in your coaching staff Kay Leon Chason is a good guy to get at a fraction of a pro price of what it would have cost you eak I think then you look at free agency there's two other names to me that I would throw out there as guys that I would be interested in trading for the first one is Hassan reck and this is like if you got a lot a lot of money and I'll be real this actually is not the guy that I would trade for but it would be at least somebody to pick up the phone give him a call and see what the ask is he's had what three four straight Seasons with eight plus sacks and the New York Jets they traded for him this off season have yet to give him a brand new contract and then what did they end up doing didn't play in week one against the Niners and he's just sitting around I'm a big fan of yard sales not so much now but in the terms of if I'm going to buy something I want somebody on a yard sale and I bet you Hassan reic would be pretty cheap right now in a trade but if you do it you're going to have to pay him and my hope for the Raiders when them saving all this salary cap space was I think the Hope was Malcolm CS goes out there and has a great season and then he ends up getting extended if Malcolm seeson does end up being done he's going to hit the free agent Market Garren freaking TI is going to hit the free agent market so in my mind I'm like well maybe we could have used some of that Malcolm cot's money and invested in Hassan reic that's the expensive way the way that I personally would do it is I would go out and trade for aiz oari I said that this morning I filmed a video yesterday on it as well Aziz oari is a second round pick 50th overall I want to say back in 2021 is when it ended up going down and he had eight sacks his first year with guess who Patrick Graham and I think just like the New York Giants kind of just like the Jacksonville Jaguars that's been a really shitty it's been a shitty football team I know they want a playoff game recently but it has not been a good team but for a player like aiz a little bit of an undersized Edge rusher a little bit undersized outside linebacker in the final year of his deal I talked to our Giants host here Marshall Green y'all can tell him to go home but like this is just one of those things where you could potentially look at it going out there and they ended up I think you could trade them for a fourth or a fifth round pick I really do I think you could go out there end up getting a ziz for a fourth I would rather you do it for a fifth round pick is what I would offer and then that's somebody if he goes out there and plays well like he did as a rookie in Patrick Graham's defense when he had eight sacks you need some of that extra depth and for a team like the Giants they're going to take all the draft picks that they can get because they're trying to move on all right so we did just actually get word that this is officially official of cevon Chason is being signed to the practice squad so going to the practice squad but that actually wasn't the only move that the Raiders ended up making they actually also just signed cornerback Kai blue Kelly Kyu Blu Kelly to the practice squad so they add of the corner they added an edge the Raiders also worked out another cornerback today from the University of Marshall he was actually drafted in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts but it looks like that they're going to go with Kai blue Kelly here but I knew that the Raiders wanted to make an edge move why Antonio Pierce said it Tom Tesco said it and I think for a lot of the people that watch this video that ended up dropping today you've heard the name k Leon Chason you heard the connections that they had and I don't think that this is a surprising move I like the move because I'm willing to bet on our defensive coaching staff and if you're willing to bet on the coaching staff you better click that like button right now because cayon Jason I think is going to surprise a lot of people [Music]
