Possible Justin Fargas trade good for Raiders?

In my opinion I think it would be best if Oakland traded RB Justin Fargas, whether it be for a player or a draft pick.  Justin is coming up on the dreaded 30 years old for running backs next year and I think they should try to get something for him.  Don't get me wrong, I looooove this guy as an NFL RB.  Probably the most underrated RB in the league, runs as hard as any running back in the league.  I remember when he demolished Al Wilson a few years back, but think about it.  Last year Cable showed a tendancy of giving the ball more to Fargas than McFadden, and yes I understand that McFadden had toe problems and was a rookie, but McFadden should of had way more carries.  Like I said, Fargas is a bruising runner, therefore the injury factor is there.  If we did trade Fargas that would leave D-Mac as the No. 1 and Bush as the No. 2.  I think Michael Bush proved quite nicely that he is completely healed from the broken leg and very capable of being a No. 2 RB with his performance against Tampa.  Oakland would maybe bring in a FA or draft a RB late because the only other RB on the roster is Louis Rankin, who was a beast last year in the preseason.  Let me know what you Raider fans think about maybe trading Justin Fargas.  Surely I'm not the only Raider fan who has thought about this this offseason.
