Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

Well it happened. I thought it would be a good thread given that JC is over there and a lot of the discussions of draft busts we had around here.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

Sirius talking heads(not all but more than 1) have said multiple times he ought to come here. Child Please .. No thanks

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

What a waste of talent and money...I hope Shanahan doesn't take a look at this bum.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

We already let Pacman slip away. If we don't sign JaMarcus, there's no hope.

nice :silly:

this has to now be the biggest bust ever, in two ways, cause he is fat

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

JaMarcus never impressed me. Now he's over weight.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

if the skins look at him...i'm burning everything and becoming a broncos fan.

Bronco fan? Couldn't you have picked a winning team like the Saints or Colts? I'd even understand it if you said the Dolphins.

Suprise Suprise.....

I wouldn't exactly call the Saints a (Winning) franchise...

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

NO WAY Russell comes to the Skins, in fact I think he will just call it quits anyway.

18 Td's 23 iNT'S in his career, 65 Passer RTNG. YUCK!

His cousin MarShawn Lynch is almost as bad as he is lol

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

JaMarcus can supersize it all he wants now at McDonalds and doesn't have to worry about the fan Gestapo keeping tabs on him when he goes to the candy section of the grocery store...until he runs out of money and needs loans or something similar to cover the cost a heart attack 20-30 years from now.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

I'm just glad I'm not Davis; 39 millions dollars down the drain.....

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

Vet min.. Not that I want it but someone was going to say it eventually.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

Vet min & learn under DM, i don't see it happening but if the FO thought it was a good thing i would support it.

HTTR.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

I don't understand why they didn't just move him to RT?

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

[quote=Trample the Elderly;699088]I don't understand why they didn't just move him to RT?[/quote]

He'd have to compete against Bruce Campbell.

I'm sure he'd be better than Heyer, so let's bring him in.

Honestly, we could get him cheap as hell. Hey to carry the clipboard and see if the Shanahans' can rehabilitate him, why the hell not.

39 mil ain't s to davis it'd be hard to figure out how much money that crazy old man has thrown away in the past few years

Who's saying that?

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

[quote=Mattyk;699111]Who's saying that?[/quote]

I want to say Adam Schein and Ross Tucker, but I was half listening half working (ok maybe half of a half working ;) ). But I had heard it the other day also and just shook my head. It was more of a yeah that would be a good fit, than oh yeah they need to get him now.

Sorry I can't say more accurately on the names.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

Gotta wonder if any team will take a chance on him

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

I dont know what i would do if the skins got this POS. please stay on the west coast far as heck away from my team. I'd rather get sage rosenfels(sp) again.

No Vet min. Quarterback first round next year learns under donavan. IMO he would make one hell of a guard, but probably too slow to be a tackle.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

[quote=Mattyk;699123]Gotta wonder if any team will take a chance on him[/quote]

I might if I were Buffalo but it would be a low-risk contract.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

If McNabb stays healthy he can QB for 3 more years IMO. Dont need to worry about a QB right now, as much as we need to worry about McNabb's contract.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

heard he's going into player development..

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

[quote=Mattyk;699123]Gotta wonder if any team will take a chance on him[/quote]
the one team that first comes to mind is the one that just cut him

maybe if he beats someone up Cincinnati can look at him

As they would say in the Sopranos: "Worthless Fat Fuck"

Why do you think that he'd make a good guard? He's probably got higher bodyfat than a lot of guards, probably not nearly as strong as most of them. He'd have to change his whole body, the weight isn't the only thing. At 6'6" he's kind of tall for a guard as well. Plus, he's spent all of his time trying to AVOID the DL, linebackers, etc. I've never seen anything that projects him as even a PROSPECT for guard.. or even tight end.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

He should take a year off, hire a personal trainer, hire a QB guru to mentor him, and try to earn a shot at returning next year.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

He is done in the NFL. Arena Football maybe or something similar, but I think we've seen the last of him in an NFL uniform...

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

[quote=Mattyk;699111]Who's saying that?[/quote]

Ok, one of the guys on Sirius NFL now is making the case for JaMarcus coming to learn under Shanahan/McNabb and be our 3rd stringer. I just don't buy it.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

the guy simply doesn't have the will to make it in the NFL. this is why pro days really mean nothing. russell had the best pro day ever yet turned out to be the biggest bust ever. his career is over but he still got 39 mil. hope he saved his $.

Re: Raiders release JaMarcus Russell
 

He'll be an Indianapolis Colt. :D

Ugh.

I doubt Shanahan wants to take on a mega-project like him. I wouldn't want a guy like that in the locker room either. Not that he's a bad guy from what I've read, but he's definitely a big time slacker.

I absolutely agree. I can't see MS wanting a guy who failed basically because he didn't want to work at his trade. Not even a little.

(it was Bob Papa, finally got a name yay)
