JaWalrus Russell's open letter to Jerry Jones

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

the letter should have ended after the word "shoulders" in the last paragraph.  i know he's just telling the truth in the last three sentences because the raiders were a mess and an enormous amount of pressure was heaped on him immediately but a prospective team doesn't want to hear it.

I would love to see Jawalrus Ruffles in the NFL again. Nothing like a good old fashioned trainwreck.

If these other bum QB's can get chance after chance, why can't JaMarcus Russell get one?

OK so who REALLY wrote that letter. 

Word is he started it but got tired midway through the first paragraph so his agent took over.

Good on him.  Maybe he can make something happen.  Good time to do it to, with all the scrambling for QB's and whatnot.

just a guess, but I assume it has to do with his lack of talent, lockerroom presence, distractions, possibly legal issues, talent, weight issues, and talent

 

oh and work ethic

Big guy with a cannon for an arm. That was his selling point. The ONLY selling point that got him even in the conversation for top pick that year. People realized after Al Davis made that mistake that you need more than than big guy with a cannon for an arm.

Props to Russell for not giving up on his dream, but he needs to move on. He had his chance. He blew it. It's sad, but there are some opportunities that only come along once in a lifetime. That was his. He needs to find himself in another situation.maybe mentoring other football players to help them not make the same mistakes he did.

Yep, always a bad look to bad mouth a former employer regardless of the truth behind your statements.

Not really "open". You have to be invited.
