1) Russell is NOT a running QB. I think people who haven't seen him play assume he is because he's black.

2) Russell is FAR more talented than Aaron Brooks.

Russell has a cannon for an arm, but at times he is very erratic. The NFL safetys would eat him up right away ..........

It's being reported that Jamaal Anderson is entering the draft. Hopefully that will knock someone else down.

Sydney Rice is coming out now as well. I wouldn't mind us getting him.

I admit I've only seen one LSU game and that was against ND but he ran pretty well in that game. He's no Vick but that's a good thing. The announcers also stated that QB draws were a routine part of the LSU gameplan. So I'll stand by my conclusion that he can run. His race doesn't enter into it. That statement is insulting.

I said he was an <b>uppercase</b> Aaron Brooks. By definition that means he's more talented but in the same style. Brooks is a passer and then a runner. He's just not a very good one.

Green made several plays in the second half yesterday after side stepping a rush or stepping up in the pocket.

As for Russell... the Raiders deserve him. He's the next Ryan Leaf/Akili Smith/Daunte Culpepper/etc... all kinds of talent, no football IQ.

His tendency for bonehead turnovers makes him a perfect fit in Oakland. The guy is the next big bust.

And makes HORRIBLE decisions.

A lot of the "draftniks" say he reminds them of Daunte Culpepper.

Me too, but Daunte of early 2006, not early 2000's.

Russell plays alot like Farve from what I saw in the bowl game

The Faiders should sign Damon Huard and draft someone else...they did a good job the last time they signed our backup QB

One thing's for certain.

If the Raiders draft him, we'll never know whether he was a good player in and of himself, because he WILL fail...

The QB of the future is more modern day McNabb than any day Vick.

McNabb had "take it down and run" take the place of his third checkdown receiver early on in his career. Now, though, he uses his mobility to move around in the pocket and scramble when necessary. He's always looking to throw first, run second. And he only runs if there's a lane.

This is what a quarterback needs to be nowadays. I think a QB who would have about 80 SPD but 99 AWR, 95 THR ACC and 93 THR PWR in Madden is much better than 97 SPD, 70 AWR, 78 THR ACC and 97 THR PWR.

The Chiefs could use a QB like that, especially considering the OL situation.

he did this against a horrible notredame defense

I agree, note the comments after a cannon arm ...........

The more skill position players that come out, the better for the Chiefs. I'd like to see 10, 1st roundesque QB, WR and RBs come out.....

ESPN reporting that Sydney Rice, WR from S. Carolina is coming out....great news for us
