Has anyone seen any Raiders games? How has he looked?

In the FBG game recaps it said he looked strong.

Could he finally reach his potential and put together a decent year.

McNabb completed 5 passes the entire game, 3 of which happened to go to him, 2 of which when hhe happened to be in the end zone...Week 1: 2/26/0Week 2: 1/46/1Week 3: 1/20/0Week 4: 3/52/2The 3 TDs are nice, but the 7/144 in 4 games aren't too impressive. Aside from stats, you can't tell with Culpepper, but he could be a sleeper. I'm stashing him away if I have room on my roster after taking care of bye-week needs and grabbing some of the other names flying around the last couple of days. (Graham/Pittman/S. Young, etc...)

Can't imagine Porter will continue to put up even decent fantasy numbers if the team's only throwing 12 times a game...

I have both Curry and Porter, but on different rosters, and I can't for the life of me figure out which of the two is the WR1 on that team . . . or if either of them is!

Porter (like Curry) is a good WR3 in your lineup. He's not a guy you want to rely upon to produce every week like you would with a WR1 or a solid WR2 because of his volatility, but he's capable of putting up eye-popping numbers that you don't want to miss. I'd liken him in some respects (purely fantasy related) to Santana Moss.

So you're saying that you expect that to continue for the rest of the season, eh?

I think Curry is the better guy to have in PPR leagues, but Porter will probably get more big play TDs. Of course, we don't have enough of a sample size yet to see who Culpepper favors.

They've played 4 games. In week 2, they threw the ball 16 times. So, in half of their games so far, they've thrown the ball VERY few times. Will their attempts be that low every game? I'm sure they won't. But the Raiders have shown that they're capable of staying in games without passing it alot, which doesn't bode well for any of their receivers. And I own Porter in 2 leagues, so I'm rooting for him to succeed as much as anyone. I'm just not all that optimistic.

This is how I see it.. If McCown is playing its Curry. He likes to do more west coast style offense. Quick drop backs and dump offs. Will also improve the RB whoever it is.. If Culpepper is in it will be Porter. I see the type of offense like when he ws a Viking. Deep passes to Porter and lots of looks.. I also think given this option the RB will lose catches..
