Marcel Reece the best fullback in the NFL !

[SuperRaider]

 Marcel Reece; where did the Raiders find this guy!


Mark Schlereth is picking them to win big, and saying Raiders are really good team, giving Cable props. At least this guy a fair Broncos and give a fair view, not like that other one that completely hate the Raiders no matter what...

Was going to post a thread on him myself.

Fullback was one of our biggest weaknesses before the season started, and we've turned it into one of stong points.

We trialed quite a few in the training camp and after watching Luke Lawton last season, Im well impressed with the upgrade.

We are ultilising his speed and great hands(given he's an ex Wideout), and he's usually the man not being picked up, or atleast has a favourable match up.

Yep brilliant pickup.  Top marks to the scouts/coaches for spotting the potential in Reese.

I mean hes a 'super-FB', good blocker but also a great receiver and runs for a few yards as well.  Best FB we've had since Ritchie.

Yet another young talent who 'could' be with us for many years.

I dont mean to get overexcited but i just hope all these players (DHB, DMC, Reese, Veldheer, Houston, McClain etc) just keep getting better and better.  Looking at our picks its our best draft for many years

Really turning out to be a real good player; not sure if it the system he playing in...I know Baltimore have had a lot good success with Fullbacks.

and who bloody picked him up off of waivers this week in the fantasy league  lol

[R8RMR]

Not me! I did try to get him though! 

[SuperRaider]

Me too

[Gazzara]

I also had him on waivers but got told someone with a worse record picked him up - Bah!  MyFF team this week was shocking but who cares after the Raiders winning like that!  Awesoooooooooooommmmmmmmeeeeee!!!!

What a difference a season makes and being able to step up and close out the game from behind?  Who would have thought it.  Such a different mind set this year it's great!

Its a great feeling, makes you realise even more why you love the NFL.  When its bad its depressing as anything but when you have a season like this so far, and some great wins you remember why you love the sport so much.

Top marks also to John Sullivan, doing a great job, i thought our rushing defense 'might' not be as good as advertised but they did a great job yesterday.  And our backup CB's top marks to them as well.

Veldheer will make the odd mistake (That 4Q penalty late on could have been hugeeee) but hes done well since starting.

After the last 8 years you just get to appreciate wins like this even more, unlike spoilt NE fans who moan if theyre 11-5 not 12-4 ! 

Whoever starts and there will be the JC vs Grads debate no doubt the next few weeks. Either way its good we've got both of them, previous seasons once our starter was out for a few games we would have crumbled.  So many big plays this season, the Tyvon Branch fumble return against SD was just so huge, similar to the Rod Woodson int to turn around the 2002 season.  Huge play
