Bowden was a heck of a player to play against in college. Teams knew going in to try and stop him but rarely did. The Raiders coaching staff thought process again looks shaky at best. Considering draft slot maneuvers, not having a place on the team for the talent, then as you stated trading the guy for less. They're lucky to have Josh Jacobs to cover their mistakes

Things I just read was that he was more concerned with picking up new cars than the playbook, wasn't explosive on the field he and was getting killed in blocks. And that Vegas was distracting him and he might be a bad influence on the rookies.

From what I’ve read on it sounds like his blocking played a big role in it. The thing is, he was a WR at Kentucky before the injuries forced him to QB and while he played RB in high school, there’s not much involvement for pass pro for RBs there.
Seems like they wanted him at RB or at least returner. Just a weird string of moves they made though, also cutting Amukamara whom they just signed as well as Damarious Randall. They’re just giving away money

He's the quintessential gadget player in my eyes. Upside to be a good slot receiver. Or...receiver out of the backfield? Move him around? Kyle Shanahan clearly doesn't think Matt Breida can catch, and Jordan Howard is not good at it. He's ok, but just calling a spade a spade. Miami, maybe gets another receiving threat for 3rd down here, or they use him to compliment Williams and Parker. The trade makes sense for them. The pick made no sense for the Raiders, IMO.
