RAIDERS: Justin Fargas heads an impressive stable that includes rookie Darren McFadden and short-yardage ace Michael Bush. Look for the hard-nosed Fargas and speedy McFadden to provide a nice combo.


I got a little kick out of that considering he has never played a down in the NFL and in college averaged 5.6 ypc his first two years and 7.5 his junior year.

Agreed, Bush was not what they're calling him now, but for him to get the rock, he'd better learn how to be the short-yardage guy.

I'm ok with #7 considering the top 6, but I believe we can be as good a rushing team as anyone in the league. We are this year's Minnesota Vikings.

yeah.. he's definitely more agility and quickness than 'power'.. from what I have seen anyway.

Thanks for the link 40. I don't get a chance to thank you as much but I do read about everything you post. Until we get on the field and actually show production, any ranking is as good or bad as the next...

they seriously had the Queifs ranked ahead of Oakland? The top 5 looked fairly legitimate.

Nice stuff!! I think we'll end up better than top 5 this year. JMHO, but this offense is going to run run run all year. Russell will come along nicely that way too... Slow and easy, not asked to do too much so soon into his career.
