Around SBN: NFL Roundtable: Which Draft Pick Is Most Likely To Bust?

Q&A With McFadden

What a classy hard working guy. McFadden loves the game of football.

"The Raiders #1 pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, RB Darren McFadden out of Arkansas, arrived in Oakland, Calif., late Saturday night and arrived at the Raiders Alameda, Calif., facility at Noon on Sunday. The Bay Area media had the opportunity to talk with the 4th overall selection in the 2008 Draft in person for the first time.

RB Darren McFadden: I just want to let everybody know I’m very happy to be in Oakland and I’m very glad to be a Raider."

Great Guy!

I was just looking up some information online about Darren McFadden and I came across this website and was reading the blogs and I am happy that the fans are glad DMC is going to be a Raider. I go to the University of Arkansas and have watched him and seen him on campus and he will be a great asset to any team. He truly is passionate about the sport and is simply amazing to watch. He is truly a classy guy despite what you may have heard about his legal troubles and I know he will be 100% commited to being the best. He also has a great personality and is very comedic and I’m sure as time goes on you will see it come out, for example on Halloween last year I was walking to class and I see this huge clown walking around campus and it was none other than DMC.I can’t wait to watch his carrer bloom and I hope he brings the Oakland Raiders success for many years.

Couldn't Say It Better

Did you see how he addressed everyone, “Sir” or “M’am”. He is a great character. Yes he got into fight, but he has matured. He understands. And plus, he was only defending his family member when he got into that bar fight. So its like he defended his team. I love this guy in all ways. Character, ability and will. Everything about him is good. Can’t wait to see him. I know my raider fans can’t wait either.

I think that

out of all the top picks McFadden would make the most loyal Raider

He might

I never seen Al like a player so much that he would go into a draft with only him set on getting. They would’ve traded down if mcfadden wasn’t there
