how is this a bad move? we just signd a pro bowl O-linemen, a good change of pace RB, we got a new TE from the bengals and we still have alot of draft picks and the same defense with less rookies.

It wasnt... dont mind the others...

Rhodes said himself he wants to be the 2nd RB somehwere not the main guy.

So you now have Lamont and Rhodes as a 1-2 punch... pretty good pickup as long as you dont overpay him.

he wasnt overpaid at all. I think the raiders offseason is shaping up well.

if would be a good pick up if rhodes didn't suck. he won't do anything on that offense, he is not a cornerstone by any means. He'll be lucky to get 3.5 ypc.

Jordan is coming off a MCL tear. Great singing by the Raiders to get a solid RB in camp. Add this to the griffith signing and the Raiders have done a little something to boost that run game.

Dominic Rhodes is an average running back. He should be paying Peyton Manning a 90% commision for the contract he got from Oakland. Any RB can put up good numbers playing in that ultra-spread out offense.

I like the Griffith signing though. Problem is Oakland still has a horrific offensive line. Robert Gallery has been a disaster and the same has to go for Jake Grove. Paul McQuistan and Kevin Boothe might develop into decent Guards but that's it.

This move makes ZERO sense to me when he could've went to pair up and still start in Tennessee with LenDale White or he could've went to Buffalo and started OR he could've went to the Giants and shared time with Brandon Jacobs. Makes no sense to me but obviously the Raiders are starting to see the side LaMont Jordan that 124 has known since the beginning. He's nothing but a reserve.

You make Rhodes out to be like he's some kind of superstar who could have written his own ticket anywhere. Put Lamont Jordan on the Colts and he puts up similar numbers to Rhodes.

Only if it was the 4th quarter after CM carries it 20-25 times.:P
