Raiders sign Culpepper


Recommended Posts

Weird move. I guess JaMarcus can learn from his clone.

The Raiders, in their inimicable way, seem to be using Culpepper as leverage to get Russell to sign a below-market deal. I imagine they've come to the conclusion that he'll hold out for a while, making him unable to start the season. Thus they need another QB.

It's probably the best deal for Culpepper. He gets a chance to be pretty much the guaranteed game 1 starter. If they have the offense at all revamped, and he's healthy, then he has a chance to impress some people and keep Russell on the sidelines. Since it's a one-year deal, he could sign a multi-year deal as a starter somewhere else at the end of the year if he does well.
