@RapSheet: #Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie had a meeting with his scouts today where he informed them he was fired, per me and @TomPelissero. He was given the chance to stay the season, but is not expected to do so.

Everyone knew this was coming. Gruden has full control.

Would love to bring him on in some capacity he doesn't get an offer to be a GM elsewhere.

The two blue chip players they traded are blowing up.

Shocking.

He should come coach up his son so he can start on the OL!!!!

I'd love the chiefs to pick him up. I assume he goes to Cleveland

Has he drafted a defensive player worth a damn without needing a top pick to do it?

Gareon Conley is turning into a good player.

McKenzie has good player personnel pedigree coming from Green Bay, wouldn't be a bad idea to bring him on here.

Gruden is consolidating power just like Josef Stalin did.

McKenzie builds a decent team, Gruden destroyed it.

McKenzie gets fired for it.

Stalin never had three first rounders...

Good for him.

:-) What the fuck?

[Lombardi] Nugget from @VicTafur - One reason Raiders fired McKenzie: Davis and Gruden “feel he didn’t get enough for Mack and may have traded him to the wrong team.” Interesting b/c 49ers say they offered comparable package as Bears; will have much higher pick.
