not even the late great bill walsh could "fix" russell, he never had pro skill just pro talent....raiders took a swing and wiffed, they arent the first to draft a complete bust and wont be the last....
gotta agree with thread title, JR being payed as much as he did is now worst then ryan leaf, SD maybe put a decades worth of hurt on themselves after trading their whole shit for him...but who knows how long the raiders will be bad after the now infamous JR pick...
al davis may need to die before raider fans can realistically think about a real playoff push
