Camp Musings - Day 4
* Getting rookie TE Zach Miller signed and in camp was huge. Too bad things never worked out for Courtney Anderson.
* Not having 1st round pick JaMarcus Russell signed isn't the end of the world, given that he won't see a snap in a meaningful game in 2007.
* After 4 days of camp, 3rd round draft pick DE Quintin Moses is the rookie making the most obvious impression.
* Mike Lombardi joined the Denver Broncos as a personnel assistant. The over / under on Lombardi claiming the Raiders owe him back salary OR that he starts secretly bad mouthing Mike Shanahan is 6 weeks.
* Camp hasn't even broken yet and the Raiders are 150 to 1 long shots at taking the Super Bowl this season.
* If the Raiders are smart, they get Derrick Burgess inked to a new deal as soon as they can. While Lane Kiffen tries to mold an offense, the defense can turn itself into one of the best if the pieces are in place.
* Wonder if anyone will get to realize Jarrod Cooper's talents?
* What a difference a year makes. Jerry Porter is in camp, the coaching staff appears to have a plan and that Moss guy isn't stinking things up.
* Kiffen reminds me a Jon Gruden, minus the attitude. The can certainly handle the media. Offensive Coordinator Greg Knapp raves about his maturity. Can't wait to see the offense in action against real opposition.
