If you can run but not be accurate nor hit a large percentage of the field, it's kinda irrelevant.
JRuss has the potential to radiaclly change the dynamics of the Raider offense the way a Favre or an Elway can.

DB's can't relax while JR's running.

In many cases, our WR's will have more time and a lot more field to get open in. It's like we made the opponents red zone 10 yards bigger, 'cause we made the usable field bigger.

It would be great if he had 4 or 5 seconds every play to stand there and throw, but if JRuss develops into a QB who can Roll and Throw, he's gonna create unique nightmares for the defense. Imagine him rolling 20 yards right, faking a long pass down the sideline, and throwing a 40 yard screen to McFadden on the other sideline. Ouch.

Mike Vick was mobile, but he didn't change the game that much. JRuss seems to have a chance to change the game.
