Raider fans please do not vote in this poll.

But your posts are welcome.

This question goes to the rest of the planeteers:

With the prospect of playing against this guy twice a year, which one would you like Oakland to pick with their first pick?

[ClevelandBronco]

Bronco fan standing by for the poll...

[Frankie]

Don't hesitate to post your reasons.

[afchiefs]

Johnson,

Reason: they still need someone to get him the ball and russell scrambles to well. Still hoping they give us their pick for daunte :)

[htismaqe]

I voted Russell but I can't say that it's really that clear-cut for me.

1) Both guys are extremely talented, and I would prefer not to play against either of them.

2) It's the Raiders. They can ruin ANYBODY.

I voted for Russell. I don't have endless data or film footage to back it up but I honestly think he has bust written all over him. It's a gut thing. That might not be the case if Oakland doesn't draft him though.

As a football fan I am excited to see what CJ will do in the pros. If he would go to the Faiders I think it would be such a waste of great talent.

[ClevelandBronco]

Russel, because I'm looking forward to their next Marinovich-like bust.

I think Russell is a bit overrated. I hope they get him over the freak Calvin Johnson.

Dude on Sirius just said - "when was the last time a superstar WR won a Super Bowl?

Okay Marvin Harrison and it took him 13 years, and that's why Oakland takes Jamarcus Russell"

[Chief Faithful]

I don't want to see the Raiders obtain any real talent at QB.

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

I'm convinced they should draft some long snapper from a mid major.

[The Franchise]

Russell

For the simple fact that Calvin Johnson had Reggie Ball throwing him the football....and he put up those numbers. Plus I think that Russell is a little overrated.

[StcChief]

Russell. Rookie QB.

Johnson. could be a real monster Reciever.

[Chiefnj]

Johnson. The Raiders were able to kill Moss and Porter, they can do the same with Johnson.

[InChiefsHeaven]

They should use their first rounder on a kicker...hey, it's worked in the past!!

[chagrin]

Side note - I have been hearing for 5 days now, that Oakland is talking trade with Detroit over josh McCown, FOR A 4th - personally I don't see the attraction but still - that's what they are talking about; so maybe they do take CJ.

[Molitoth]

I like Calvin Johnson and don't want to see him ending up on a shitty team I hate.

So that excludes...
Raiders
Broncos
Cowboys

[Mr. Laz]

i think calvin is the bigger talent so i picked Russell


i also think it's easy for an organization to destroy a QB than a WR. :fire:

[ct]

I voted Russell, because I believe Calvin will be an absolute stud, and while Russell may also, he's got big bust potential.

[PastorMikH]

I'll go with the WR. I don't care how good their WRs are, as long as the Raiders keep ball chunkers like they have had in the last couple of years, even great WRs won't be much to worry about. If they get a decent QB he can make all the WRs look good.

I voted for Russell. CJ is an ungodly talent. I could throw to him and he'd still have 1,000 yards. Maybe Russell will get sacked enough to break down his big body.
