Bush for Oakland was put on PUP - two main questions:

1. Does he factor into any plans for Oakland in 2007?

2. How does his outlook seem to be for 2008?

Bush for Oakland was put on PUP - two main questions:1. Does he factor into any plans for Oakland in 2007? No. And i would hope not. 2. How does his outlook seem to be for 2008? It looks ok. Not great.

Raiderfan.net#1 Raider forumBush will be in a RBBC for quite some time. Kiffin is using the USC competition as a motivator for his players. USC is currently running 3-5 Rbs a game! Not counting the FB. And they have been very successful. Kiffin too has a similar strategy.Raiders spread the ball too much for Bush to have significant value in 2008, maybe even 2009 or 2010. Too bad. Lamont has played very well in the ZBS. He fits perfectly into Kiffins system/scheme. I don't see him leaving. Other than being angry he took a pay cut. He is very happy to be productive.Fargas has played well in limited action. Bush will be ahead of him on the depth chart. Fargas will still get touches and remain a Raider for many years. Dominic Rhodes - 2 year contract. This will sound funny. Is Thunder to Lamont Jordans Lightning. Everyone will see when he returns. He will also get touches. alot of them. Justin Griffith is a versatile full back. He runs-catchs-blocks. Specifically he is targeted for his fair share. Targets per game 3-2-3. It isn't much when you see it alone. Adding the teams totals reveals everybody is involved. Zach Miller & John Madsen are running routes and catching balls. Thats 2 TEs that make great targets in the flat or downfield. Madsen was open on all 3 of his catches last weekend. Raiders WR will get their looks too. Just a little something. Hope it helps. Are you trying to trade for him. Or trade him away? I would probably target others to trade for. With Oakland early season success. Savy MBush owners could trade him for a piece that will get them into the playoffs this year and possible win. Other owner who wait...just wait.
