With quarterback Jason Campbell getting most of the work (the company line will be about training camp competition, but the only way he doesn’t start is because of injury), the Raiders, with offensive coordinator Hue Jackson challenging his offense and talking trash to the defense, actually put a legitimate NFL passing game on the field.
Quote:
“I’ve seen how far we’ve come as an offense, and we’re much better and guys are developing,” tight end Zach Miller said. “I mean, just watching him, Heyward-Bey has been phenomenal out here. He’s matured a lot and I’m really looking forward to seeing what kind of season he’s going to have.”

Why is this news ? We've known about this for 6 weeks.
Anyway, the top of the 2011 draft is strong, any pick inside the top 15 works for me. Of course there are some people who are desperate to prove that it was a bad trade.
Everybody looks good in shorts n t-shirts, bet I wouldnt look too bad out there either without pads on...
The point of the reporter is that the Raiders didn't even look good in shorts and t-shirts before. Now, they've at least come that far.

I'm still unsure why they're going to hand the starting job to Campbell and won't at least give Gradkowski a chance. He did some good things for their passing game last year, when healthy.

The Raiders were running OTAs 6 weeks ago?
P.S. I've noted that where the pick falls doesn't change my opinion of the trade, so I assume that I'm not among "some people". This was news, so I passed it on.

There's no news here other than Raiders saying how good they now are. Sorry, that's not news. You're just trying to spew the same crap about the trade being bad. Have fun.
Come on, Deus. If the Raiders actually fell into competence, Big Al would start calling the coach on the field and directing the plays to facilitate some failure.
But then again, the losing season streak has to end at some point. Count me among the surprised whenever that happens if Al Davis remains the owner.
Jason Campbell was 12--20 with the Redskins the last two years. He threw 15 picks last year vs. 20 TD's. Like Kontra, I wonder why they won't give Gradkowski a chance. In other words, I don't think the Raiders are going to be in the Playoffs next year.
I don't think anyone ever expected this to be a top 5 pick and, if it were, BB would probably have just traded it. Any place in the top half of the first day should do fine. If there's someone in the top ten that the Pats feel is worth it, they have plenty of picks with which to trade up.
