NFL teams typically have a 24-hour rule when it comes to celebrating victory or lamenting defeat. Browns receiver Jarvis Landry isn’t following that guideline this week.鈥淚t did http://www.oaklandraidersteamonline.com/frostee-rucker-jersey ,” Landry told reporters on Thursday when asked whether the 45-42 overtime loss to the Raiders stuck with him longer than usual. “It was something that I am obviously still thinking about, but it is a new week. We have to try to push that ‘start over’ button again. Go back out there and have another opportunity on Sunday.鈥漈his one will linger because of the possibility that the loss instead of a win could come back to haunt the Browns later in the year.鈥淚f you were to look at it honestly, with the opportunities that we have had to win games, you do not want to look back in December and be like, 鈥楪od, if we could have gotten that one,'” Landry said. “It is tough. We scored 42 points. That is something to be optimistic about.”Nine dropped passes made it harder to beat the Raiders, and Landry said this dynamic was a “huge” factor.“I know that was, myself included,” Landry said. “A lot of hidden yardage in there where if we catch the ball on some of those plays, we are getting first downs. I think one of them turned into an interception for a touchdown. Just little things like that. You take those seven points off of the board, and we are still winning by two or three points.鈥滾andry still sees the glass as half full for a team that has had an otherwise empty glass for years.鈥淗onestly, the points that we are scoring and the adversity that we are faced with Authentic Rashaan Melvin Jersey ,” Landry said. “Being down several weeks and having an opportunity to bounce back and either take the lead or put ourselves into a position to win the game, that is definitely something positive to look at. From there, cutting out mental errors and turnovers. We do that with the defense that we have when we are up 14, no team should have an opportunity to come back.鈥漈hat’s surely what hurts the most. The Browns had a 14-point lead, and they blew it. And they still had chances to win. And they blew it.But at least they are competitive. At least they are relevant. At least they are finally moving in the right direction, after wears of wandering aimlessly throughout the NFL landscape as a team that its opponents could count on for an easy “W”.Aaron Rodgers record deal further shows flawed logic in idea that making Khalil Mack highest paid defender would hamstring Raiders Today Aaron Rodgers got PAID by the Green Bay Packers. To the tune of 4 years, $134 million on an extension. That averages out to $33.5 million per season with $80 million guaranteed. That per season contract easily blows away the previous NFL high of $30 million which Matt Ryan is now making.Right now Khalil Mack is looking for an extension that would keep him with the Raiders for the next six years. Since he is the best defensive player in football, he would like to be the highest paid defensive player in football. That would put him over $20 million per season, surpassing the deal Von Miller signed that pays him $19.1 million per season.Those who would attempt to talk themselves into siding with the organization and being ok with Mack suiting up for another team like to use some familiar tactics to do that.One of the most common I’ve seen is the suggestion that making Mack the highest paid player at his position would hamstring the Raiders with regard to signing other talented players. Usually that argument includes Derek Carr’s salary and sometimes it includes deals that haven’t even been made yet such as Amari Cooper, who will be up for an extension next year.I’m here to tell you that is way overblown.Derek Carr signed an extension last year that made him the highest paid player in NFL history at an average of $25 million per season. Since it was an extension, some of that was put into his final year of his rookie deal, so if you look at his per year salary, he will actually only make $25 million one of those seasons. That’s this season. Every year after that he will make less each year.Mack’s deal will do the same. They can lump some of it into this season to bring up his $13.8 million if they would like to do so. They have a few million available under the cap with which to do it. So Cheap Kolton Miller Jersey , they can make his salary cap hit lower in successive seasons.Now consider that with Aaron Rodgers’s deal, Derek Carr’s average of $25 million per season isn’t even in the top five anymore. This is just a YEAR removed, mind you. Before Carr can even play on the first season of his extension, he is already outside the top five. That’s how quickly these record deals become no big deal at all.Add that the salary cap goes up every year, so what might be, say, $40 million between Carr and Mack each season, will represent a smaller percentage of the overall cap amount each year. This offseason the Raiders went with quantity over quality in their free agent signings. They did that to try and fill the team with guys Gruden and his staff like. That won’t happen again, at least not like it did this offseason. From here on out, Gruden will try to fill his team with his draft picks. And that means also paying those who become stars in order to keep them in a Raiders uniform. It’s not like Khalil Macks come around every year, so there is no need to do any hand wringing about a year into the future.Reggie McKenzie came over from the Packers. His mindset is in line with their mindset. They just locked in the best QB in football likely for the rest of his career on a groundbreaking contract. And you can bet the Packers wouldn’t make such a deal if they were worried it would kill their chances to add or keep other talented players. There should be no difference with regard to the best defensive player in football in Oakland.Follow @LeviDamien
