Default Re: 1.07 RB Michael Bush Oakland

I think the Raiders will suprise teams as they are going to a zone blocking scheme with Tom Cable. They have the talent on the o-line but have not had a scheme/style to fit the players the Raiders have on o-line.

That being said since Jake basically made this pick to leverage Turner from me let me give my thoughts...

Bush was a 1st round talent before he got injured scoring 23 TDs the year before. He's big, quick, agile, has great vision, and can catch. I'm not counting on him to be a factor in 07, but I fully expect him to be the Man in 08. Lamont will be due a big roster bonus and Rhodes will always be a #2 RB. Both Bush and Turner are not expected to be starting in 07, so I traded Turner and his 2 year deal for Bush and his 4 year deal.

Let's see how it works out.....

Then again... I'm a blind Raider homer and last time that lead me to draft Justin Fargas.
