Jamel White

[Raider4Life]

from the Browns was released earlier today. The Raiders should sign him NOW!!! It would be a good change of pace player if we can't sign Garner. He would make a very good 3rd down back.

You do realize we signed HB-JR Redmond of the Patriots last season.

Yes I know, we picked him up late last season when all of our runningbacks were hurting. But I think White is a different type of a player. He's more of a skatback. IMO White is better than Redmond. I also believe Redmond will not make the team this year.

I see no use for either back.

Both stiffs.

Duce or Garner are my FA choices - for $1M/year. No bonus. Else we just go with Fargas, Wheat, Crockett, and a draft choice.

You gotta be kidding! NO WAY Duce or Garner sign for ONLY $1 Million a year w/out signing bonus. I bet both get about $4 Million signing bonus.

& what is Z. Crockett, Chop liver?

[Eastraider]

My point exactly..........Too much for a platoon. Neither Duce or Garner would be the feature back with us.

So, they are probably more valuable to someone else. Fargas needs more time this year.

When was the last time you saw Z. Crockett on 3rd and long. Crockett is a short yardage specialist. I was saying that White would come in on passing 3rd downs.

I agree Crockett is no chop liver, he's the man!

Crockett is the most under utilized weapon on our team IMO. I would like to see him get 10-15 carries a game

1st I hope we don't have many 3 & long next season
2nd We should pass to Fargas more

3rd down running backs are usually used for 3rd and long Bgrn.

Short yardage specialists is what zack crockett is
