Raiders | Sign Joshua Cribbs Wed May 15, 03:53 PM
The Oakland Raiders agreed to terms with WR Joshua Cribbs (Browns) Wednesday, May 15. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Cribbs will be a return specialist for the Raiders. He's not quite 100 percent recovered from his offseason knee surgery but the team will monitor him closely as he continues to make his way back. Cribbs won't be asked to do much as a wide receiver on offense. |

Raiders | Jacoby Ford gets increase in base salary in 2013 Thu Jan 31, 03:33 PM
Oakland Raiders WR Jacoby Ford will receive an increase in his base salary in 2013 because of incentives in his contract. Ford will go from $630,000 to $1.323 million.
| Footballguys view: Ford hasn't been able to stay healthy during the last two seasons, but he looked like a future star in his rookie year of 2010. This is a big year for his future in the NFL. |

Raiders | Young WRs could be trade bait Sat Dec 15, 09:06 AM
Oakland Raiders WRs Darrius Heyward-Bey, Denarius Moore and Jacoby Ford could potentially be trade bait in the offseason as general manager Reggie McKenzie looks to acquire additional draft picks and stockpile talent.
| Footballguys view: The Raiders have a pair of promising rookie WRs in Juron Criner and Rod Streater. We'll see if they can move any of their veterans to add more draft picks. |

Raiders | WRs could be dealt for picks Fri Dec 14, 01:30 PM
The Oakland Raiders could decide to shop WRs Darrius Heyward-Bey, Denarius Moore and Jacoby Ford in order to obtain draft picks for next year's draft. WR Rod Streater appears to be safe as part of the solution and not the problem. WR Juron Criner won't be going anywhere, either. Streater is tied for sixth among rookie wide receivers this year with 28 catches and is sixth in yards with 429.
| Footballguys view: Moore was considered a cornerstone coming into this year, but he has fallen out of favor with Carson Palmer and company. Any of Moore, Ford, or Heyward-Bey could have increased value in a better pass offense. |

Raiders | Jacoby Ford lands on season-ending IR Sat Sep 15, 10:26 PM
The Oakland Raiders placed WR Jacoby Ford (foot) on the season-ending Injured Reserve list Saturday, Sept. 15.
| Footballguys view: Ford's foot problems the last two years have to make you wonder if he'll ever get his speed back. If you don't have an IR spot in your dynasty league, it might be worth dropping him. |

Raiders | Jacoby Ford has same injury Tue Sep 11, 07:38 PM
Oakland Raiders WR Jacoby Ford (foot) is undergoing surgery on the same foot that caused him to miss significant time last season. 'It's really basically the same injury that he had last year,' head coach Dennis Allen said. 'When he re-injured it this season there was nothing new structurally different from where it was last year.'
| Footballguys view: Ford could be placed on the Injured Reserve and designated to return after six weeks. |

Raiders | Jacoby Ford to have surgery Tue Sep 11, 04:27 PM
Oakland Raiders WR Jacoby Ford (foot) is expected to miss "significant" time after having foot surgery, according to head coach Dennis Allen.
| Footballguys view: Ford didn't have any re-draft value because of this latest injury. Now his dynasty stock has come into question. He's talented, but Ford has yet to shake the injury bug during his pro career. |

Raiders | Derek Hagan, Darrius Heyward-Bey lead wideouts Tue Sep 11, 01:54 AM
Oakland Raiders WR Derek Hagan had four receptions for 44 yards, while WR Darrius Heyward-Bey had three grabs for 43 yards in Week 1 against the San Diego Chargers. The two were the top two wide receivers in yardage with WRs Jacoby Ford (foot) and Denarius Moore (hamstring) inactive.
| Footballguys view: Heyward-Bey continued to be inconsistent and didn't show up big against the Chargers coverage. Hagan is an effective underneath receiver but offers little after the catch. |

Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said Friday, Sept. 7, that he won't rule out WR Jacoby Ford (foot) for the Week 1 game against the San Diego Chargers Monday, Sept. 10. However, Ford missed practice Friday, and it's unlikely Ford will play.
| Footballguys view: Ford has earned a reputation as an injury-prone player, and he has already advanced it this season before a regular season game has even been played. He's not worth rostering in typical redraft leagues until he proves he can stay healthy for a stretch of games. |

Oakland Raiders RB Darren McFadden could have an even bigger workload in Week 1 with so many injuries to the team's receiving corps. WRs Jacoby Ford (foot) and Denarius Moore (hamstring) are both questionable for the game.
| Footballguys view: A bigger workload for McFadden is nothing but a good thing for the Raiders! McFadden is a no-brainer start this week and could finish as a top 5 fantasy RB this season if he stays healthy. |

Raiders | Carson Palmer needs more work with WRs Tue Aug 28, 06:31 PM
Oakland Raiders QB Carson Palmer said he needs to build more chemistry with WRs Denarius Moore (hamstring) and Jacoby Ford (foot) before Week 1 arrives. Palmer has thrown four interceptions and no touchdowns this preseason. 'We need a ton of work together,' Palmer said Monday. 'You can never get enough work with a guy, even if he's played every rep and you've played every rep.' Both receivers have been injured and both aren't expected to practice this week or play in the preseason finale Thursday, Aug. 30.
| Footballguys view: Moore has the talent to be a top 15 WR in the NFL but injuries have held him back to this point. Ford has a lot of talent as well, but has been limited because of various injuries. |

Raiders | No structural damage for Jacoby Ford Sun Aug 19, 11:47 PM
Oakland Raiders WR Jacoby Ford (foot) does not have any structural damage and no swelling, according to head coach Dennis Allen.
| Footballguys view: The injury still makes it difficult to like Ford as a late-round sleeper because it seems like he can't stay healthy for any considerable period of time since his rookie year in 2010. Carson Palmer also loses a little value as a sleeper quarterback with two of his top three weapons banged up going into the season. |

Raiders | Jacoby Ford on crutches after game Sat Aug 18, 01:43 AM
Oakland Raiders WR Jacoby Ford (ankle) left the preseason game Friday, Aug. 17, against the Arizona Cardinals due to an ankle injury. After being treated in the locker room, he was out of uniform, with crutches at his side, after returning to the sideline.
| Footballguys view: It's time to consider Ford too injury prone to live up to his immense potential as a speed merchant on offense and in the return game. This is good news for rookies Juron Criner and Rod Streater, who should now vie for the number three, or even a starting job if Denarius Moore's hamstring issues linger. |

Raiders | QB has faith in Jacoby Ford Wed Aug 15, 08:16 PM
Oakland Raiders QB Carson Palmer said he has complete faith in WR Jacoby Ford despite Ford dropping two of the three passes thrown to him during the preseason game Monday, Aug. 13. 'I have complete faith in him and he'll catch the next one. I told him right after it happened I'm coming right back at you to give you another chance. I know the next ball I throw to him, if it's a bad ball he'll go up and make a play on it and make a play for me,' Palmer said.
| Footballguys view: Ford has plenty of talent, he just needs to stay healthy. The Raiders WR corps is jam packed with talent but Ford is an interesting prospect in dynasty leagues because of his upside. |

Raiders | Jacoby Ford to return punts Thu Aug 9, 09:13 AM
Oakland Raiders WR Jacoby Ford said he is excited to be handling punt return duties this season. 'I'm definitely excited about doing punt returns,' Ford said. 'That's something I've been wanting to do for a long time now. But since I've been here, I just wasn't allowed to. Now that I'm going to definitely get the opportunity to do it, I'm going to make the best of the opportunity and definitely try to score or just set the offense up to have a short field.'
| Footballguys view: Ford is a very talented player but injuries have prevented him from playing up to his potential. Dynasty owners should see if they can scoop up Ford on the cheap. |
