Una vez finalizado el draft de la NFL para la temporada 2008, los Raiders de Oakland hicieron varias selecciones interesantes:En la primera ronda escogieron al corredor Darren McFadden, dos veces candidato al premio Heisman, proveniente de la universidad de Arkansas. Junto a Felix Jones logró un promedio de 286.54 yardas por tierra en cada juego de los Razorbacks. En 22 de 38 juegos superó las 100 yardas. Su desempeño fue en ascenso, con 1,113 yardas en el 2005, 1,647 en el 2006 y 1,830 yardas en la temporada 2007. Seguramente McFadden será una excelente opción para el mariscal de campo JaMarcus Russell. Tras haber sacrificado la segunda y tercera ronda, en la cuarta seleccionaron al veloz esquinero Tyvon Branch, proveniente de Connecticut, donde fue titular indiscutible. Posee ademá

When I learned about this contest, I was pretty sure I was going to write a column about Matt Ryan dropping into the teens while pretending to not be counting every dollar he’s losing as the hours crawl by. But I figured Ryan was the obvious selection to slip now that the Dolphins have apparently decided on Jake Long, so it probably wouldn’t be an original idea. Then I thought about writing something discussing the Detroit Lions potentially drafting another wide receiver, but I figured that one would be done a few times over by a few other people. I gave some thought to writing about how entertaining it was to have a 16-0 team picking in the top-10, making a mockery out of an NFL system that actually stripped them of their own first round draft pick. But I assumed some othe

One of the band's most striking aspects is B-Real's exaggeratedly high-pitched nasal vocals, which fits and emphasizes the lyrics' concentration on parodied gangster stories.Sen Dog's lyrics are progressively more violent and tend to involve fewer rhyme schemes compared with B-Real's. In addition, as the style is today, some words are emphasized by adding a background voice to say them, however, Sen Dog's emphases are always more prominent, mostly shouted alongside with the rapping.The sound and groove of their music, produced by Muggs, is also notable for its influence and stoned aesthetic; with its bass-heavy rhythms and odd sample loops ("Insane in the Brain" is notable for having a horse neigh looped in its chorus), it carries a psychedelic value, which lessened in the later albums.The

The Indianapolis Colts can clinch the division with a win over the Oakland Raiders. However, there does seem to be one similarity between the Colts and Sunday's opponents the Raiders and that is their consistency, albeit at either end of the scale.On Sunday the Indianapolis Colts can become the first team in the history of the NFL to achieve five 12-win seasons on the bounce if they can beat Oakland at the McAfee Coliseum. The Raiders are trying to avoid quite the opposite - their fifth consecutive year with at least 10 losses.Over five seasons the Indianapolis Colts 61-16 record is second only to the New England Patriots 63-14.Indianapolis Colts Merchandise, Apparel, Jerseys, Hats, Caps and MemorabiliaIndianapolis Colts Apparel and ClothingIndianapolis Colts Auto AccessoriesIndianapolis Colts Autographed MemorabiliaIndianapolis Colts CollectiblesIndianapolis Colts Golf and Novelty ItemsIndianapolis Colts Hats, Caps and VisorsIndianapolis Colts Home and OfficeIndianapolis Colts Jewelr
This is why the Oakland Raiders continue to be a laughing stock among the rest of the National Football League. Sunday they play host to the struggling Chicago Bears, a team that has not been able to find it’s stride pretty much throughout all of the 2007 season, and really have struggled on both sides of the ball. There is one player on the Bears that continues to be one of the most dangerous weapons in the NFL, and that is kick returner Devin Hester. This season Hester has been his usual disruptive self, taking back three returns already this season for scores, and putting up close to 25 yards per kickoff return and 15 yards per punt return. So what will the Raiders do to take Hester out of the game-plan Sunday?
Kick to him.
Yes, the Raiders, a team that evidently has yet to watch game film on Hester, announced on Wendesday that instead of doing what other teams that have beaten the Bears in 2007 have done, they will do the complete opposite - give Hester a chance. First-yea
La segunda cuarta parte de la temporada regular ha dado resultados muy malos para los Raiders, que con un parcial de 0-4 que los han puesto con una marca de 2-6, al fondo de su división. En el primer partido los Cargadores de San Diego se fueron adelante muy rápido 14-0, por lo que los Raiders nunca pudieron alcanzarlos y posteriormente cada anotación de los malosos fue respondida con una de los chargers. pecaron de exceso de confianza al recibir en casa al peor equipo de la temporada pasada, el cual los sorprendió con una ofensiva aérea renovada. Aunque los Raiders lograron igualar el marcador en base a los pases, terminaron perdiendo porque la defensiva no supo cerrar los espacios a tiempo. El segundo partido, de visita en Kansas City, el asunto fue al revés: la ofensiva brilló por su ausencia, pues no pudieron anotar puntos en la primera mitad los Raiders. La defensiva negro y plata estuvo muy bien, pues sólo permitieron dos goles de campo en la primera parte. Los Raiders le
Raiders veteran RB LaMont Jordan once stood among the top of the league in rushing yards. Through four games, he had 424 yards and sat behind only Pittsburgh’s Willie Parker. Now, heading into week 10, Jordan is an afterthought in the Raiders’ offense, a complementary option to RB Justin Fargas. On Sunday, Jordan ran once in the first half and four times in all, for 10 yards. By comparison, Fargas rushed 12 times in the first half and 23 times overall, for 104 yards. HC Lane Kiffin said Fargas remains the starting running back until further notice. Jordan referred all questions pertaining to his status to Kiffin, without elaborating.

This is a heads up for Lamont Jordan owners out there. Lamont has had trouble getting it going over the last few weeks although he hasn’t had much help up front. I wouldn’t expect Fargas to save your fantasy season.
In a defensive AFC West showdown, Chiefs RB Larry Johnson was enough as Kansas City beat the Raiders in Oakland 12-10 to continue their dominance over the Silver and Black. Johnson ran for 112 yards and scored the deciding TD early in the 4th quarter to go up 12-7. Oakland had a last shot, as they got the ball down 12-10 with 1:38 left. After driving to their 44, Daunte Culpepper threw a pick to Jason Page to end the Raiders last threat.
Kansas City improves to 4-3 on the season, dropping the Raiders to 2-4. Damon Huard went 16-for-31 for KC, with 177 yards. Culpepper was 18-for-29 for 228 yards with a TD and a pick. Neither team did all that much on offense, as the Raiders went for just 268 total yards, while the Chiefs went for 290 yards. The big stat was that Oakland was only able to rush for 55 yards, as the Chiefs held LaMont Jordan to 29 yards on 11 carries.
The game also marked the return for Chiefs RB Priest Homles, who had not played since the 2005 season. He entered

There was a point where I had to put the camera down, though. But not before I took this shot:
Ha concluido la primera cuarta parte de la temporada regular y los Raiders llevan una marca de 2-2, por lo que la presente temporada luce mucho mejor que la anterior. El equipo ha venido de menos a más bajo la batuta de Lane Kiffin. En el primer partido pecaron de exceso de confianza al recibir en casa al peor equipo de la temporada pasada, el cual los sorprendió con una ofensiva aérea renovada. Aunque los Raiders lograron igualar el marcador en base a los pases, terminaron perdiendo porque la defensiva no supo cerrar los espacios a tiempo. El segundo partido, de visita en Denver, resultó frustrante porque los Raiders tenían asegurada la victoria en tiempo extra (a pesar de que McCown sufrió tres intercepciones). Pero tras una polémica decisión, donde los Broncos pidieron un tiempo fuera en el último segundo antes de la patada, Sebastian Janikowski tuvo que repetir su gol de campo y falló (como le sucede en momentos clave) y los Broncos ganaron posteriormente con un gol de ca

It can be hard running an NFL training camp when you have the worst team in the league and your star rookie quarterback is unsigned. Fortunately, Raiders coach Lane Kiffin has found something for his team to work on. Body Language.
“Body language,” is the unofficial mantra of the 2007 training camp. Tom Rathman preaches it to his running backs…Tom Cable insists on it with his offensive linemen…Rob Ryan yells it out to his defense…Kiffin and his staff are watching their players in between plays, in hallways and meeting rooms.
“When I meet with them individually, I tell them, `Make it so we can’t cut you,’ ” Kiffin said. “Whether it’s your body language or the way you practice or the way you carry your playbook or the way you act outside of this building, don’t ever give us a reason to cut you. People show a lot about themselves when you’re not necessarily looking right at them. Those are the players

NAPA, Calif. — Derrick Burgess might be healthy enough to practice with the Oakland Raiders, but he’s still not ready to play in a game. Burgess was ruled out of Saturday’s preseason opener against Arizona by coach Lane Kiffin, who says the team will continue to take a cautious approach with its two-time Pro Bowl defensive end. “I just don’t want to put Derrick out there right now,” Kiffin said. “He’s only been back for a couple days and it’s not worth it to put him out there more…
While the Raiders await the arrival of their first round draft choice and the number one pick in the draft - QB JaMarcus Russell, the team is still not ready to make a choice on who will be the first to line up under center Saturday night vs the Cardinals in their preseason opener. The choices are newly signed QB Daunte Culpepper, former Lions QB Josh McCown, or sometime starter last season - Andrew Walter.
The team did release a depth chart on Tuesday, and all three QB’s are listed together, meaning that for now, no chocie has been made as to who will take the first snaps against Arizona. As for Russell, he sits back at his mother’s house in Mobile, Alabama, as his holdout from the Raiders becomes uglier and uglier. The two sides are still not close, and as of now, there are rumblings that he won’t wear the silver and black until sometime in September, already into the regular season.

One of the greatest wide outs of all-time, Fred Biletnikoff was the number two pick in the 1965 Draft. After 13 seasons with the Oakland Raiders, Bilentnikoff left the game after putting up Hall of Fame numbers - 589 catches, 8,974 yards and and 76 touchdowns. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1988. Site Editor Matt Loede caught up for a few minutes with the Raider great at the 27th Annual National Sports Collectors Convention. Click below to hear that interview:
Ha iniciado la pretemporada y se han requerido algunos ajustes de última hora para consolidar el equipo para la campaña 2007. El principal ha sido el retraso en la contratación de JaMarcus Russell, quien ha pedido demasiado dinero para firmar su contrato, a pesar de que apenas es una selección colegial y no tiene nada ganado en la NFL. Se trata de un problema recurrente en las primeras selecciones, que piensan que pueden pedir lo que sea, a pesar de ser debutantes en la liga. Por tal motivo, Los Raiders acaban de contratar a Daunte Culpepper, mariscal de campo que jugó con los Delfines de Miami y los Vikingos de Minnesota, asegurando así a un jugador confiable en tan importante posición.Respecto a los otros seleccionados, hay buenas noticias. El ala cerrada novato Zach Miller, segunda selección del Draft, ya firmó su contrato. Miller, en su último año colegial en ASU consiguió 50 recepciones para 484 yardas y cuatro touchdowns, siendo elegido All-American. Otro que cerró s
A reported newspaper said the Oakland Raiders will sign free agent and former Viking and Dolphin QB Daunte Culpepper to a one-year deal, according to a source known with the situation. This would be a good move for the Raiders because as I stated in Saturday's July 28 article, "Raiders QB Russell to start Week 1?" this team does not have a "worthy" starting QB to go in there for Russell no matter how long he holds out. Now they do, as they are expected to pick up the former Central Florida QB Culpepper. Culpepper should be the favorite to be under center against Detroit at home for Week 1. Oakland has been pleased with his workouts and so far he is a "go" in terms of his questioned, and often speculated health.
Culpepper has a strong arm and still has some mobility left in him. He is a major upgrade over McCown and Walter. He should be able to keep the seat warm for Russell when he is ready to start.
Culpepper will be a mentor for Russell, as they share a similar style
NAPA, Calif. (AP) — Free agent quarterback Daunte Culpepper will work out for the Oakland Raiders on Tuesday, two weeks after being released by the Miami Dolphins. Culpepper held a private workout for a member of the Raiders’ personnel department in Florida on Monday. The 30-year-old quarterback did well enough there to persuade the team to fly him out to California for an additional workout. “Anytime that we have a chance to investigate something that can help our team win, were more…
NAPA, Calif. (AP) — The Oakland Raiders signed second-round draft pick Zach Miller, leaving No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell as the only player missing from training camp. Miller, a tight end from Arizona State, came to terms with the Raiders late Friday night and was on the field for the team’s first two-a-day workouts the following morning. His signing comes two days after Oakland released veteran tight end Courtney Anderson. Terms of Miller’s deal were not disclosed. Coach Lane more…
There is dissension in Cali among Oakland's coaching staff and personnel on how to properly utilize LSU rookie QB JaMarcus Russell. One side thinks Russell needs time to learn the in's and out's of the NFL and that he should sit behind veterans Andrew Walter and Josh McCown. The other side thinks Russell should start right away if he shows in training camp that he can handle the position. Look for this internal difference in opinion to continue until the start of the regular season, with Owner Al Davis likely having the final say.
Why he should Start: Russell should start right away because the Oakland Raiders have no other QB worthy enough to start over him. McCown and Walter are decent backups at best; they cannot even hold his cleats, let alone the starting job. They should not even be considered to start a single NFL game in their entire careers, they should be as far away from the field as possible holding the clipboard and the headset calling out signals as "spectators.â
Después de la mala temporada del 2006 de los Raiders de Oakland, se hizo evidente la necesidad de renovar el equipo, comenzando con la posición de entrenador en jefe. El cambió se inició con la llegada de Lane Kiffin, ex-coordinador ofensivo de los troyanos de la Universidad del Sur de California (USC), en sustitución del coach Art Shell, muy identificado con los Raiders y exitoso en su primera etapa, pero con resultados muy adversos durante su segunda estancia con los de plata y negro. Con Kiffin se espera una ofensiva explosiva, como en los tiempos de los coaches Madden, Flores y Gruden.Respecto al mariscal de campo, Andrew Walters no tuvo el rendimiento esperado, teniendo muchas más intercepciones que anotaciones y Aaron Brooks no pudo cubrir adecuadamente la posición, por lo que la selección de un quarterback era urgente. Aunque se especuló con el nombre de Brady Quinn, finalmente se eligió a JaMarcus Russell, reclutado en primera ronda de los Tigres de la Universidad Est
Len Pasquarelli of ESPN is reporting that the Oakland Raiders have waived troubled safety Jarrod Cooper, a sixth year safety. Cooper was suspended last week for a violation of the NFL’s steroid policy, which hastened his release from the team. This transaction could quite possibly end the career of Cooper, a special teams ace for the Raiders, but beset by off-the-field problems.
Cooper was suspended for four games and lost six game checks while a Carolina Panther; at that time he was charged with with driving while impaired. He was susequently released by the Panthers after being accused of providing false information to a police pofficer in 2004. Once upon a time, his most recent suspension would have taken from Cooper approximately one-fourth of his season’s pay ($270,588), but he would have been allowed to report to camp, play through the offseason and then sit out the 4 games required.
But apparently, Raiders head coach Lane Kiffin wanted no parts of Coo

Raiders safety Eric Cooper has been suspended the first four games of the season for violating the league’s policy on steroids. Cooper will be allowed to play though the preseason and participate in training camp, and his suspension will start on August 31st. The Raiders first four games are vs Detroit, at Denver, vs Cleveland and at Miami. He will be allowed to return after the teams bye week and his first game back will be on October 14th vs the Chargers. Cooper, who is a solid special teams player for Oakland, is the second player on the Raiders to have to sit for violating the teams substance abuse policy. Running back Dominic Rhodes will also be sitting four games as well. In other Raiders news, the team on Friday announced the signing of safety Eric Frampton to a contract. He is the 5th draft choice on the team to ink a deal. Frampton was Oakland’s second pick in the 5th round, and was an all-Pac 10 player last year at Washington State. The team also w
