When it comes to protecting the ultimate reality show’s ultimate reality show http://www.raidersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-hunter-renfrow-jersey , certain sacrifices need to be made, apparently.A story regarding quarterback Josh Rosen‘s clunky exit from Arizona contains a telling revelation regarding the effort to trade the 10th overall pick in last year’s draft. The Cardinals didn’t start the process until after they made quarterback Kyler Murray the first overall pick in this year’s draft.Via Robert Klemko of SI.com, G.M. Steve Keim asked Rosen’s agent, Ryan Williams, whether the Patriots may have interest in Rosen — after the Murray selection.“Williams was taken aback and grew angry,” Klemko writes.The whole world knew, or had a good idea, that the Cardinals were taking Murray on Thursday. (Emphasis in original.)The obvious, and only logical, answer is this: The NFL wanted to maximize the relevance of its TV show.If Rosen had been traded at any point before the draft, it instantly would have become obvious that the Cardinals were taking Murray. Which would have prevented ESPN and NFL Network from spending weeks generating false hype for a decision that secretly was a .And Arizona amazingly went along with it, helping boost the total viewership of the draft to Zach Brown Jersey , the league contends, 47.5 million over three days. (If you’re curious as to why I’m skeptical, it wouldn’t be the first time that the league was more than a little self-serving about the millions who were, or weren’t, served.)So here’s the real question: What did the Cardinals get in return for undermining their short- and long-term strategic interests by failing to maximize the return for Rosen? Another Super Bowl in the desert? The draft? Something else the team has been lobbying for that may not be obvious?Whatever it is, here’s hoping it was worth it. Because the Cardinals surely could have done better than pick No. 62 this year and a fifth-round selection next year if it had launched an auction at some point in March, and if it had shipped Rosen to the highest bidder, with teams like the Giants, Washington, the Chargers, and the Patriots also potentially at the table, regardless of whether the world would have known that the Cardinals would be drafting Kyler Murray. ALAMEDA Shareef Miller Jersey , Calif. (AP)As soon as Tom Cable drove into the Raiders facility seven years after being fired from his dream job as head coach in Oakland, he knew he wanted to return to the franchise he cheered for as a kid.Instead of feeling bitterness over his firing, Cable wanted to come back as coach Jon Gruden’s offensive line coach to complete some unfinished business.”This has been my team since I was a little boy, so it’s not like it changed because I got run out of town,” Cable said Thursday. ”It probably just made it a little bit deeper for me, which is cool. That’s why I’m here.”Cable’s first tenure in Oakland was a chaotic one before he was fired after two-plus seasons as head coach following the 2010 season. Cable led the Raiders to an 8-8 record in his final season, the team’s first non-losing season since 2002.He memorably proclaimed ”we’re not losers anymore” after that season ended, a comment that didn’t please late owner Al Davis, who fired him shortly after.”When I left here, I left here and I didn’t want to,” Cable said. ”That’s just the truth. I put that team back and got it up off the mat. Dusted itself off, got to .500 and then we’re going to change. It was like unfinished business. It was really kind of natural and a comfortable decision to be back and wear these colors again.”Cable joined the organization in 2007 as offensive line coach under Lane Kiffin and took over as interim coach four games into the 2008 season when Kiffin was fired.Cable ended up keeping the job after the season Devin Bush Jersey , thanks in part to a season-ending win in Tampa Bay that knocked the Buccaneers out of the playoffs and ended Gruden’s tenure there.The following season, Cable was accused of breaking assistant coach Randy Hanson’s jaw during a fight at training camp. No charges were ever filed and a civil suit was settled in arbitration. Cable was also accused of physical abuse against two ex-wives and an ex-girlfriend that year.Davis fined him $120,000 because of turmoil those cases brought the franchise. Davis was extremely critical of Cable’s behavior in a news conference after the firing but Cable remains appreciative of what Davis did for his career.”My respect for him is unblemished,” Cable said. ”I think that’s where people would say, `Why aren’t you bitter?’ Well, because you see for me it’s different. He’s a teacher to me. He’s a mentor to me. Whether I get along with him or not, wasn’t the issue. I took so much from him. To have the opportunity to come back and help make this right, like the vision I had earlier was and to help Jon see this though the right way, that’s pretty powerful to me.”After being fired by the Raiders, Cable went to Seattle where he spent the past seven years as offensive line coach. He helped the team build a Super Bowl winner in the 2013 season and returned to the title game the following year where Seattle lost to New England on a late goal-line interception.The Seahawks struggled on the line the past two years, failing to protect Russell Wilson or generate an effective running game.But Gruden didn’t hesitate to bring Cable to Oakland for a second stint.”He’s a tough guy,” Gruden said. ”Usually the tough coaches http://www.steelersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-diontae-johnson-jersey , they help develop tough lines. The thing I love about Cable is he’s a great teacher. You can go down and sit in an offensive line meeting for 30 minutes and he can coach about three days’ worth of information. He’s always ready. He’s sharp, but he’s a really good teacher. He’s into it every day. He’s a tough guy. We like him.”Cable joins a Raiders team that allowed the fewest sacks in the NFL the past two seasons, led by a stout interior that includes former Pro Bowlers at center and left guard in Rodney Hudson and Kelechi Osemele, and an emerging right guard Gabe Jackson.Left tackle Donald Penn has been one of the top pass blockers in the league the last few years and the Raiders also used high draft picks to add first-rounder Kolton Miller and third-rounder Brandon Parker.Cable also gets the chance to reunite with running back Marshawn Lynch, who averaged 1,339 yards rushing in his first four seasons with Cable in Seattle with 48 TD runs.”He’s one of the smartest football players I’ve ever known,” Cable said. ”I don’t hand that one out very often. He’s been really a blessing for his teammates. He was phenomenal in the locker room as a leader in Seattle. I see the same characteristics going on here.”NOTES: Gruden said he will undergo surgery on his right elbow Friday. ”I’m kicking off my summer with a real, real bang,” he said. … CB Gareon Conley missed the last two days of minicamp with a mild groin strain.—
