Dpantherman 558 Report post Posted March 27, 2010 Posted by Mike Florio on March 26, 2010 10:24 PM ET If Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell indeed suffers from lethargy addiction, it has not affected Russell's willingness to move his hand from his plate to his mouth. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports, citing two sources, that Russell recently weighed in at 290 pounds. Raiders director of squad development Willie Brown recently promised that Russell, the first pick in the 2007 draft, had lost "quite a bit of weight." It's possible that Brown is telling the truth and that Schefter's report is accurate. This would mean that, in the past, Russell had been significantly heavier than his listed weight of 260. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/03/26/report-jamarcus-a-svelte-290/ Its amazing how this guy approaches the game. How much does this guy make again??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coxc63 40 Report post Posted March 27, 2010 He's always been big, and I figured he'd be a bust coming out of LSU in '07. Well just about anyone the raiders draft are busts now. There are a few exceptions but not many. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveThePanther2008 3,128 Report post Posted March 27, 2010 OT, FB and QB all rolled into one. Why they paid him so much. As soon as he flops at QB he is gonna be a Pro Bowl LT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnlyPantherFaninMaine 5,423 Report post Posted March 27, 2010 290... that is absurd. I can't fathom being an Oakland Raiders fan. Nor would I bother. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
