  Expected. I did hear that Russell had showed up to camp looking very good, both physically and throwing the football. However, us Raiders fans have heard that shit the last 3 years and and he's always back to his same old shit when the regular season comes around.

  Very underrated player....he will be an all pro one day....possible hall of famer.

  if he was smart he would've had his stuff packed once jason campbell was acquired.
  
  so he's probably packing right now

  Biggest bust ever.

  He'll probably be given another chance somewhere, but he is definitely going to have to change his attitude. Weighing 3-Bills is not the ideal weight for a QB
• thavoice

  Dont know how much of a chance he will get. I dont see any team telling him he can legitmantly compete for the starting position anywhere....
  
  Maybe if he had some good seasons he would...but he has been a trainwreck. I imagine he will get chances to be a backup but that s t.

  Not saying hes good...at all.
  
  But I wonder what hed be like with decent Wr's and a line that didnt make him run for his ilfe every play

  Agreed, Buffalo maybe....? That is QB hell right now. Other than that I don't see a team calling, maybe Kansas City?

  Who needs a spped rush Defensive end?

  I think Russell is a bust, but with that being said I think I would take Russell as a backup QB on my team before I took a guy like Colt Brennan (who is actually a backup with the Redskins). Russell actually has game experience and has the physical ability to be good, so I could see a QB-"whispering" head coach take a gamble. Wonder if Mike Martz would come calling?

  Did this actually suprise anybody?

  Now he can go to the Arena League and throw the length of the field on his knees for a TD.

  Please Cleveland sign him so I can hear how good he can be and what a good pick up this is.

  if JaMarcus Russell is cut, does anyone care?

  Oh but he's tall and has a strong arm. According to some on this site, that's all you need to be a great NFL quarterback.

  Maybe the walrus will sign him to go along with his stable of young all-pro qbs.hahaha
