He can come home for a visit, but please let him return to Oakland as soon as possible.

If there is any hope at resurrecting him (A BIG IF), would wait until he gets cut. He's making way too much money.

If one would choose to look at the question from a serious perspective; would we trade for him? No. Can he be salvaged? Yes.

Russel never was really good att LSU, he won a lot of games but that was more due to the supporting cast then his own play.


Drafted by the most dysfunctional franchise the last 10 years playing first for Lane Kiffin who really has not produced anything of substance as a coach but somehow manages to sell himself as part of a package. Then playing for Tom Cable who don't really like Russel and wouldn't have played him if Al davis had not insisted.

Not a great start to an NFL career. I would say he hasn't been properly coached since highschool, I mean when was the last time you saw a really good QB come out from LSU?

Still he has huge upside. His physical tools are off the charts with an arm like a howitzer. Part of the problem is that he was not ready to be a leader in Oakland and they didn't have a lot other. The best for his career would actually be to end up with a team like the Saints that has an established QB he could sit behind and learn from. Payton could coach him up, after all, he managed to get more than 3000yds from Quincy Carter in a season.

Re: So do we trade for Jamarcus Russell
 
Jamarcus IMO never really asserted himself. I understand Oakland is a pure dump, but I mean he really looked terrible last year. I am not sure he can be salvaged. Oakland almost has to release him at this point, I am sure he will get a second chance. If he gets his weight down and really plays and studies hard, he could rebound. I am not convinced he will. The way it's looking is he will be out of football very soon. Very horrible considering the tools this man possesses...

Thats a dam shame. He's the next Ryan Leaf. Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaadummy

Re: So do we trade for Jamarcus Russell
 
The problem with Jamarcus is he's overpaid severly. He has not earned one cent of the money Oakland is paying him. I think NFL Network was saying he gets paid almost $30mil to be terrible, therefore, he has no motivation to strive to be better.

Can he play DT? He's big enough!

Re: So do we trade for Jamarcus Russell
 
Russell ought to sue his agent for having him hold out for half his first season. He's probably not a Rhode's scholar and could have used some coachin/more playing time.

Re: So do we trade for Jamarcus Russell
 
I think this is a great idea.

Re: So do we trade for Jamarcus Russell
 
Let the Raiders release him, then sign him, and put him at fullback!

Just think how effective a fullback option pass could be! Or not!

Re: So do we trade for Jamarcus Russell
 
He would get some coaching. The Saints O-Line can block. The Saints recievers can catch. Russell should pay the Saints for a roster spot. LOL.

YES! Lets trade for the worst qb in the league! How about Brees and next years rd1! I would not give a wet fart and a hot pocket for him.

Now you know J.M would flourish in our offense behind Brees...lol

I don't think we want him anywhere around our team. Let Chase get some playing time in the preseason and during a few blowouts. I think we'll be fine.
