Some Awesome News From the Raiders Camp

[Lone Buc Fan]

JaMarcus Russell has reportedly looked very poor at the team's minicamp practices.

We hesitate to pass along many practice observations because it's subjective and played in shorts. But Russell's reviews have been uniformly terrible over the weekend, with multiple writers saying his accuracy was lacking. Jeff Garcia has also reportedly struggled.

Darius Heyward-Bey dropped three passes in a row at one point during practice Saturday.

Cue Mel Kiper! We obviously wouldn't take this news too seriously, but every drop by DHB is going to get extra attention. (He got a scolding from Jeff Garcia) At least Heyward-Bey is running with the first team.

According to David White of the San Francisco Chronicle, Javon Walker "may have a hard time hanging on if he doesn't have a strong training camp at this point".

Walker had knee surgery last month, but only just told the team. The lack of communication, combined with a horrid first season with the Raiders, a hefty contract and the Raiders drafting a receiver in the first round probably means Walker should be careful when sending out his laundry this summer.

It's a real shame that team will never improve as long as Al Davis is around.

its bad when the best thing that can happen to a team is the owner to die.
