I don't think that's a terrible pick by any stretch. While he's not the surefire lock some here want to claim/believe, he has the potential to be a very good player, especially if he can keep some of his family members a long ways away from him.
But he doesn't address what ails the Raiders, which is mediocre - or worse - play from the offensive and defensive lines.

I see it:

1. Phins - Jake Long (duh)
2. Rams - Chris Long
3. Falcons - Glenn Dorsey
4. Raiders - Darren McFadden
I agree that I would love to see Glenn Dorsey in a Raider uniform...McFadden is not a bad fall back. Great running backs will make the offensive line substandard play look better then it is. This Raider team needs playmakers on offense and there is no doubt McFadden is a playmaker. Dorsey or McFadden will greatly improve this team.
