Raiders Thinking About Dumping Rhodes ~ The Huh? MERGE

RAIDERS THINKING ABOUT DUMPING RHODES

A league source tells us that the Oakland Raiders are contemplating the possibility of releasing running back Dominic Rhodes.

Over the weekend, Jay Glazer FOX reported that Rhodes had been available via trade.

If Rhodes is released, he will be required to first pass through waivers. If he clears waivers, he will be an unrestricted free agent.

Rhodes arguably should have been named the MVP of Super Bowl XLI. He left the Colts via unrestricted free agency, and he prepped for his foray into free agency peeing all over himself in the back of a police cruiser. Allegedly. He later was suspended for the first four games of the 2007 season for violation of the substance-abuse policy.

Seen our quarterback situation lately?
You know, like anytime over the past five seasons?

Anyhow, cutting Rhodes actually makes a ton of sense if the Raiders believe Bush will be healthy next season. He's due to make $5 million next year as a probable backup. The Raiders would be just fine with a Jordan/Bush/Fargas combination.

He got a two-year, $7.5 million deal that included a $1 million bonus and $1.5 million salary for this season. Which means his deal is worth $5 million for 2008.
Raise your hand if you think Dominic Rhodes is worth $5 million.

I dont know...

if we do dump him... I hop it is because Bush is healthy and ready to rock.
