Re: Jason Campbell traded to Raiders
Jason Campbell is an Oakland Raider

The Washington Redskins have traded quarterback Jason Campbell to the Oakland Raiders.
It's been expected that Campbell would be traded since the Redskins acquired Donovan McNabb, and trade talk between the Redskins and Raiders heated up today. Rick Maese of the Washington Post was the first to report that the trade is complete.
There's no immediate word on what the Redskins got from the Raiders for Campbell, although Maese suggests that it may have been Oakland's pick No. 190 and either No. 215 or No. 251 overall. Not a lot of compensation for a former first-round draft pick, but then again the Redskins didn't have a lot of leverage, as everyone knew Campbell was on the way out.
In Oakland, Campbell has to be considered the favorite to win the starting job over JaMarcus Russell, Kyle Boller, Bruce Gradkowski and Charlie Frye.
