Paying a rookie QB $60 million is just about as assinine as it gets. They will pay dearly for it.

Another Mike Vick on our hands. I can not stand this crying, whining, rookie d%&k head already. Stop worrying about make 60 million dollars until you have proven you are worth it.
The Raiders are the dumbest football team of all time. Somebody needs to have their head examined for this idiotic move.

So glad you asked. Think of what he hasn't accomplished.
No National Championship in College
No Heisman Trophy in College
Could have had Brady Quinn
Calvin Johnson could have been a Raider.
90% certain he'll spend the next 6-8 weeks on the bench, because there is not one single person out there that could say he'll start before then... he played 0 pre-season plays, he's taken 0 official snaps, and has 0% chance of starting for a long time. Way to pay a whiney little &^#$ of a footballer. How about paying me next year to coach him... that'd be nice.

I think so, but at least he's big. When he flops as a QB he can put on a few pounds and try out for the offensive line.

Of course they will, but its their money to mess around with so they can grossly overpay any player they want to. Ne might end out as being almost good as Peyton Manning or bust like David Carr.

He is going to have to watch his weight. You can have a rocket arm, but if you weigh so much and you are getting chased down he isn't going to be last long. I think that is going to be his downsize. I know Culpepper was a little chunky when he came into the leauge, but looks like he has slimmed down.

Trust me my friend. This kid is the REAL DEAL. He is what Shaq is to basketball. I don't believe you will be disappointed. Natural quarterback? Russell's picture is next to the definition in the dictionary.

I say the odds are 50/50 that Russell will be a bust.

Russell's gonna be stellar. You wait and see.
