The Chicago Bears and Oakland Raiders awoke their respective fan bases to completely different moods Saturday morning with the reported blockbuster trade of star edge rusher Khalil Mack.
Reported - Irvin can't believe Mack trade: 'No f---ing way'
Twitter users got online early to express either elation or frustration.

Me before the draft: Khalil Mack and Roquan Smith sounds like a killer duo for the Raiders.

On a related Khalil Mack note, my UNDER 8 wins wager on the Raiders (+110) is looking better by the minute. As stated before, it's hard seeing this team reaching .500.

OAK 1st round picks 2004-2014. What's the point of hitting the jackpot if you can't keep the guy in the fold?

There is no true equivalent to Lawrence Taylor. He was a generational player.

But I always thought the closest thing we’d see to him was Khalil Mack.
And the Raiders are trading him.

Love a #Wikipedia update on a sports news trade. Either an irate #Raiders fan or a #DaBears fan channelling his inner Bob Swerski over the Khalil Mack trade. @bensonharb pic.twitter.com/dfLbbG2Cxu
