actually everybody knew that the QB was the problem all along, and yes AL hung on a little too long. The Alex Smith situation is a lot different, i bet that if Smith gets cut someone else gives hit a chance. NOBODY will touch Jamarcus....that guy is a waste of space on this earth, his parents should be shot
so you're saying the Raiders kept him around too long?
like ras925 said... he only played 3 season... and his first season barely even played
so should the Raiders have cut him after his first season? that would have been really dumb
I mean obviously in hindsight we can say it would have been the right move, but come on... the guy was the team's number one overall pick... they had to give him at least one more year to at least show improvement... instead he got worse... so Al made the right choice at that time
you could argue that picking Russell in the first place was a bad decision, but I don't think you can argue that they kept him around too long... not at all
