Raiders Release Dominic Rhodes

No surprise here, the Oakland Raiders have released running back Dominic Rhodes just two days after drafting Darren McFadden with the first overall pick in this past weekend’s NFL draft.

The Raiders obviously had no need for Rhodes when they still Justin Fargas, LaMont Jordan and Michael Bush but then again they also didn’t need McFadden.

I understand he’ll help sell tickets and he could become a superstar in the league but so could Michael Bush! And what’s wrong with Justin Fargas? He’s a very solid back who can consistently put up respectful numbers as the starter.

As long as Al Davis is running the show in Oakland the Raiders will continue to be a pathetic franchise and an embarrassment to the entire National Football League.
