Why McFadden?
Well there is now someone else who is thinking why McFadden. With all the money tied up in the RB position, and a big hole in the run defense, there is another person who is asking themselves why DMAC. Of course this particular person, has an active stake in that decision. One more RB, means more competition,and with as much money as DMAC will make, the scrutiny will be more than it was for JR, since most people think rookie QB's shouldn't start right away. Running backs, on the other hand should be able to come in and grasp the NFL rather quickly.

So here is the article on Michael Bush, and he states that he will work hard even with DMAC, and push him for carries.
When Michael Bush first heard the buzz, he wasn't thinking that this was just the typical business nature of the NFL. Or that it was just more potential competition. Instead, one very familiar word came to mind when Bush heard the Oakland Raiders were flirting with Arkansas running back Darren McFadden."I was just like `Why?' " Bush wondered.
Bush conveys the moment like a man who has been asking himself that question forever. And some days in Bush's mind, it might seem that way. Since Sept. 2006, his career has seen little more than turbulence: A broken leg against Kentucky in the opener of his senior season; a second surgery a month before the NFL draft; plummeting into the fourth round of the 2007 draft; and then a long climb back with the Raiders that ended with an unexpected deactivation in November - without logging a single carry in his rookie season.

Here's how it should be
Second String/split-time: Michael Bush
Third String: D. Rhodes (can't spell first name)
Fourth String: NONE!
Plain and simple, NO MCFADDEN!

OK.........RB situation
Everybody knows we don't have a lot of holes to fill but the talent at some positions is forgettable LETS UPGRADE
You guys can say whatever you want but Silver and Blacfadden is inevitable since Chris is gone

Of Course...
We were the most active team in FA for a reason. He through ridiculous amounts of money at these players in a desperate fashion which shows a clear sign that "winning now" is a priority and this trend should continue to the draft
Im sorry to crush you're dreams but you know and I know that C Long will be gone
