Bad signing.  He's too old to be relevant when we're going to be in our prime.


You are nuts.... Tuck was a GREAT signing for your defense.... much needed leadership and production


sad :(

Much needed leadership and production over two years where we will not be relevant with or without Tuck.

We aren't in a position to take on veterans for short term. There is no band-aid that we can slap on, because we're fucking hemorrhaging like we lost a limb.

We're being smart dude.

It's a cheap deal that will get us to where we have drafted young players who can take over for him when he leaves. Calm down broseph

Signing Tuck brings a change in culture. You're getting a 2x Super Bowl winning champion and defensive leader. The guy is a rock and a warrior.

Players will listen to him and look to him for advice, especially the younger crowd.

Tuck is a big game player. He did it in the biggest stage twice... played great in both Super Bowls.


You can never overlook championship experience.

Tuck will bring other players to Oakland in the future.

I wonder how he'll go from 3-4 to 4-3, but I believe he was a DE in Michigan so...nice pickup

I really hope that WOOD actually recovers from his harmstrings injuries, he's still ''young'' at 29(going 30 next season)
