The raiders looked decent last year w/Gradkowski in. The skins game was an example of that. We blew them out when russell came in.
I don't know that everyone is saying that JC & Rock are going to boost the raiders chances, I think their draft is generating some buzz here simply because they got two OTs who we'd talked about for months. As a result, the raiders might be on their way to being one of those sleeper teams people pick during training camp.
Bruce Campbell made a name for himself in the combine & I too wanted us to take him in the 4th, but he's still a workout warrior until he proves otherwise. The Mcclain pick was surprising but still good. The raiders I think are a .500 team at best.
