Skins work out JaMarcus Russell (and a bunch of other free agents)

Like i said, don't discount the possibility that other teams may consider him for a different position....

Honestly, that much talent, arm strength, etc...someone has to at least give him one more chance...Oakland has been a cesspool for a long time. In the right organization, he could be molded better.

What position? Do you have an audio link to the report you heard on the radio?

610 AM is a winchester based station. No one said on the radio that they were considering him at a different position, but my gut says that at least someone has thought of it.

All I have to say that it's tough to see how he can be anything but a QB. It's not like he's Mike Vick.

Maybe Center?:cheeky-sm

I'm totally guessing here guys, but at his size, possibly he could be a fullback or play some kind of line position. 6 ft 6 and 286 is still huge....

Yeah I think a lot of people are disrespecting offensive linemen when they keep saying Russell could just play the line because he's big. It takes more than just size to play on the line, there is skill involved

Russell might've been a decent TE prospect out of LSU but his learning & training curve will be pretty hard to transition to any position at this later stage. I don't know if he's got the speed/quickness to play TE, but he seems to have the overall athleticism. He will be a 'project' no matter where he goes, or what he plays.

I love how there was all kinds of news on tuesday and yesterday, and now everything is tight lipped about Russell. Could a signing be coming soon???

Skill and brains.

But, we're talking about replacing Rabach, not a real offensive lineman. :food-smil
