Last post until Thursday - Inside The Oakland Raiders - A look inside the world of the highly classified Oakland Raiders from the writers of ANG Newspapers Quarterback JaMarcus Russell, running back Darren McFadden and defensive end Derrick Burgess were all limited in practice and coach Tom Cable is optimistic they will be available to face the Dolphins Sunday. Among those who didn’t practice were wide receiver Javon Walker (ankle), center Jake Grove (calf), quarterback Andrew Walter (ankle) and linebacker Ricky Brown (groin). Wide receiver Chaz Schilens was also limited.

McFadden and Burgess could be problems if they were to play. McFadden, not so much running but more of coming out of the backfield. Peyton Hillis gave us trouble and McFadden is more athletic and can make people miss. Walker doesn't scare me and neither does Schilens but he's a guy who can make a play downfield and has seen some PT. He's 6'4, 225 and has incredible athletic ability. Really like him. He lit up the good defenses in his final two college games I believe. He's really raw but if the Raiders can find a good coach for him somehow, he can be a good one for them.
First of all any thread titled "inside the raiders' should come w/ complimentary condoms. Second: Ruh Roh Shaggy!
