What about Jared Lorenzen? He looks goofy as hell, al 285 pounds of him behind center, but he is a #2 guy, or has been. Tim Hasselbeck I thought was pretty good here and he was still behind Lorenzen. Maybe not here, but I would love to see him starting somewhere. It would be very interesting to see how he plays.

[quote=SmootSmack;431506]The Raiders have signed WR Drew Carter[/quote]

He had what, about 35 catches and 4 TDs last year? By Raiders standards that's worth about $20M in guarantees, right?:)

Re: Latest FA news from KFFL
 

On another note, I'm happy to see the Dolphins take yet another member of the Cowboy's organization. Safety Keith Davis, who was a team captain, has left the 'Pokes for the 'Phins. Fine by me.

timmy posted a 0.0 vs dallas (4 ints < 50% completions). he won't be starting anywhere anytime soon. he definitely gets style points for being able to grab a wife way out of his league though.

[B]JaMarcus Russell[/B] | [URL="http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=oak"][COLOR=#000000]Raiders[/COLOR][/URL]
Russell does not weigh 300 pounds and has been a regular at team headquarters for workouts since season's end, two team officials told the San Francisco Chronicle.

One front-office employee, speaking on condition of anonymity, dismissed Internet reports of an out-of-shape quarterback as "ridiculous."

The employee said: "JaMarcus is nowhere near that. He's been here. He's been working out. He's in great shape. That's something everyone's going to see at our first minicamp" in early May.

Hackett will visit the Panthers on Friday, according to The Charlotte Observer.

In a 2007 season hampered by injuries, Hackett caught 32 passes for 384 yards and three touchdowns. At 26, Hackett could be the No. 2 receiver the Panthers need to complement Steve Smith.

The newspaper also reported Hackett will visit the Redskins and Buccaneers.
