Raiders Franchise (Russell)

[outlawz1979]

I doing a Raiders Franchise im a Russell fan but i like the project of rebuilding them however the man is throwing pics lieft and right for me..I got Colt brennan in a trade does anyone think that Russell will be good qb down the line or is he bust??Like the real vibe I know its early they suck he needs a wr but man there hard to play with..

Big Raiders fan but two things need to happen: Goodbye Al Davis and goodbye Russell!!!! Russell just doesn't have the tools for the position. Yes he's big and has a cannon but he's slow, doesn't read defense well and looks out of place on the field.

Regarding Madden first thing I did was trade Russell for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd round pick.

In real life I think he will be extremely good in a couple years...and this is coming from a Bronco fan

Not too sure about in Madden though.

You got freaking Cutler whos Moble and can throw better than him just my thoughts..Anyways so pretty much is mixed reviews i think he will be better than Tim Couch,or Alex Smith,but no Cutler,or Rivers etc..Im in chicago just wondering what people thought of him.

In Madden he plays well for me, I personally like his strong arm and find the WR's to be a much bigger problem than him.

Although in real life I doubt he'll be too great, at least there is 0% chance while he's with the Raiders, hopefully for his sake he can get out and be successful somewhere else.

yea don't get me wrong, i would never take him over cutler. I'm just saying in the 4 or 5 raider games i have seen, all things considered I have been impressed with some of the tools he shows.

On opening night against Denver, his rating was bad and he missed a lot of passes, but i saw an incredibly strong arm, and his inconsistency's seemed to be because of being young, and i think he will develop into a good quarterback.

Hey, even if Russell was on a good team he would still be a 2nd string backup at best.

Your right they have no WR depth i bet they get Crabtree knowing Davis who will be a stud.That could be a ice combo.****ssell on the NFL Network Thurs check it out a bit..They over payed javon Walker whos knees are gone sadly,who else they got a wr??
