Raiders Are Rebuilding Possibly Without JaMarcus Russell
Raiders Seeking to Possibly Dump JaMarcus Russell In Rebuilding Phase.The Oakland Raiders are in rebuilding mode. They benefited from several good picks within the recent 2010 NFL Draft, and one position is subject to much contention. Former #1 pick JaMarcus Russell is thought to be a bust. (So were Ryan Leaf and Brian Bosworth.) They've made a cash advance or two to some promising players also as some crafty vets and may be a greater threat than 2009-2010's disappointing 5-11 season.The Raiders may turn the autumn wind cold for Russell JaMarcus Russell was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in 2007. As a rookie, he went 36 for 66, with two TDs, four interceptions and 373 yards. The Raiders went 5 - 11 the next two seasons, and in 2009, Russell began losing form. There was a success after his replacement with Bruce Gradkowski, who led the team to two upsets against the Bengals and also the (then) Super Bowl champion Steelers, but then he was injured. Fans started calling for Gradkowski to become the starter and for Russell's benching or release. Russell has been struggling with fitness, and also the Raiders may soon release him according to Yahoo! Sports .Raider traders and the 2010 NFL DraftLinebacker Rolando McClain was the Oakland Raiders first round draft pick. Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell was traded to Oakland for future draft picks, and also the Raiders mostly selected defensive players. Campbell had mixed results with the Redskins, but had been consistently improving. However, with all the payroll loans being put into the defense as well, that entertains a far more delicious prospect.Tim TeBow, watch yourself.Tim TeBow, the squeaky clean QB from Florida was just drafted by the Denver Broncos. He is promising, but he's no Elway yet. The Denver Broncos are one of the Raiders biggest rivalries, except perhaps the Chiefs. A Raider's defense armed to the teeth and a rookie wunderkind? He'd better eat a good breakfast, as he might eat dinner in the afterlife.What to do at quarterback?Oakland hasn't posted a winning season given that it appeared in Super Bowl 37 in 2002. There is a surplus at quarterback, and one is no longer embraced by fans.Resources for the articleYahoo! Sportshttp://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=nfp-raiders_expected_to_cut_jamarc...
