WHAT A RIVAL COACH SAYS
"JaMarcus Russell will get better by default, but we were not worried about him sitting in the pocket and lighting us up with his arm. He wasn't there with the progression part of it.... They drafted Darren McFadden [below] to be the guy, and he will have every opportunity, but will he hold up physically? I doubt it. He needs to make the mental leap to be a three-down back. He may get the starting nod because they're paying him, but you watch: Justin Fargas will tote the mail and get the hard yards. He's tougher. He's a pro. He's a better fit for that scheme.... I thought Darrius Heyward-Bey was a heck of a pick. He will get secondaries to back up, and when they do, the Raiders will hand the ball off.... Zach Miller is their most consistent pass catcher and a respectable receiving tight end."
