I like Huff though... I think this will be his breakout year especially if he is at FS.

Nice... the Raiders restructured Rhode's contract and re-signed Cornell Green... Things are looking better and better.

Here is what I don't understand. How is Lamont Jordan not the starter? He had over 1000 yards in his first season with Oakland, gets hurt, and is now the #3 RB??? Kiffin is a complete idiot because Jordan catches the ball just as well as anyone else does. Fargas is a nice RB but I don't think he can last a whole season and Rhodes is a pot head who needs to be in the Arena Football League. With a young QB, you need a solid RB that he can dump a pass to when in trouble...ie, Jordan. I hate to say it but it looks like my Raiders will be 3-13 this year.

All we as Raiders fans have to look forward to is Al Davis kicking the bucket.

Jordan lost his own job. After racking up over 400+ yards after the first 3 games of the season he didn't do shit after he hurt his back. Fargas stepped in and gained over a 1,000 yards in only 8 games. In the only game Rhodes started he gained 122 yards... I don't see how Kiffin is an idiot at all... he was able to get signifigant production from three completely different RB's...

I liked Jordan, but his performance has never been consistent. For four million dollars they could use that money else where when Fargas and Rhodes have proven they can caryy the load.

I'm not a Raiders fan, i cheer for the team across the Bay, but I'm curious as to how you see Michael Bush in the plans? He can be an absolute beast (as he showed pre-injury in Louavul), Do you think hes going to be an impact player this year? Next year? Injury riddled his whole career? Goal-line back?

I also saw Warren Sapp on PTI last night, he was good shit. He'll be missed.

Michael Bush = Future Starter, reason why the Raiders kept 3 backs in front of Bush and put him on IR instead of cutting him is.. and this has been said.. they feel hes the future of this team at RB, they love that kid. I wouldnt be suprised if he starts as early as this year. Fargas is amazing, no question.. but Michael Bush is a Raider favorite.. mainly because he runs like Tyrone Wheatley with the straightaway speed of Charlie Garner.

If he comes on like he did before his injury then he will be the starter at some point soon; probably when Fargas gets injured, which is likely the way he he treats his body in games.

I think Rhodes in insurance at this point... if Fargas gets hurt and Bush doesn't pan out or isn't ready to come back yet.

The most important aspect of the Raider's rushing attack is that it's system based and they were able to garner above average production from three entirely different backs.

Bush will be the starter within a year or 2 but how anyone can say dope man Rhodes is a better option than Jordan is a tool bag. Rhodes has never been shit and never will be shit. Kiffin is an idiot because what coach in their right mind cahnges QB's every other week. Culpepper clearly gave the Raiders a better chance to win than McCown. All Kiffin did was split an already divided locker room even more. Lamont Jordan, when healthy, is the best back on that team. Fargas is a nice complimentary back and Rhodes just needs to go run some drugs in Cuba or something. Until the Raider reorganize their organization, they will be 3-13 every damn year.....and yes, I am still a Raiders fan.
