To all of you Raider fans,

I have had the great pleasure of watching Darren McFadden play for the Razorbacks and one thing is for sure; the Red and White jerseys that are everywhere here in Arkansas will turn Silver and Black as fast as they can make em'! Congrats to you at the Raider nation!

Hopefully he works out for us as well as LT worked out for your Chargers.

What really sold the hype was how much he will dominate in the ZBS. If our line can open the holes that Fargas ran through, watch out!

WORD.   I don't think people are realizing that RBs are important to the ZBS because they need to be able to make reads to find gaps and hit them at the right time.  (Everyone thinks you can just throw any pedestrian RB back there)  Fargas can do that, but DMC looks like he can do it just as well, if not better.  Not to mention, DMC has the physical skills to break some very long runs once he hits his read.   I am sold on DMC's vision to find holes.   Let's just hope I'm right.

Let's just hope I'm right.Man you better be. If DMC is anything less than what he's been made up to be, the Raiders will receive even more scrutiny like no other. A double negative would be if Glenn Dorsey is really the next Warren Sapp.

Here was one of my big problems not neccasarily with McFadden but with people over hyping his speed. Speed is great but is worthless if you dont have vision. If you dont know where the hit is coming from it is just as worthless. This is what made Marcus Allen great. LT is great for this fact too. Barry Sanders just about any running back that has made the Hall of Fame did it with more than just speed. Charlie Garner was a rocket but wouldnt wait for his blocking he would knock himself out running 110 mph right into the back of his guard. I hope DMAC has patience and corrects his fumbling problems. I dont want to see that gay carry style that Tiki Barber had neither.

DMAC could prove to be extremely valuable to Russel, the defense and the organization and he damn well better be for that high of pick and money and what the Raiders conceivable passed up to take him. Im tired of seeing bust picks in Oakland. They have to have one hit and I really believe its the philosophy that made them great than  is killing them now. The game has evolved and the Raiders havent. I believe in the bomb and the man to man defense. I believe in making the penalties worth while meaning hurt somebody. But speed only kills if you have other attributes to go along with it.
