Lamont Jordan

[Bert102176]

according to ESPN the raiders want him to restructure if he doesn't he could be cut

[Tatonka]

i would love to have jordan here.. he is a guy that plays with a lot of heart and passion. he was one of the only players on the raiders last season that played is guts out and actually cared that they were losing.

[Mr. Miyagi]

Wasn't he Curtis Martin's backup? He's not too bad I think.

[evol4276]

hes a good dual-use back.. good reciever and good runner.. i wuldnt mind him at all

[Bert102176]

here is the link it's at the bottom of the page http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=clayton_john&id=2787051 the Raiders want him to redo his bonus but he doesn't want to

I really liked Jordan's year with the Raiders in 2005, then he fell off last year. Just like the rest of their team, I guess. Oakland could make anyone look bad...Randy Moss, anyone?

[Bert102176]

he got hurt towards the end of the year and missed like the last 3 or 4 games I believe

[ZacGriffi~82]

i don't see him as an upgrade to McGahee.

[gr8slayer]

Jordan would look good in a Bills uniform.

And, by the way, I think LaMont would thrive behind the nearly 700 pounds of dominance on the left side of our line.

:drool:

Looking at his stats how ****ing incompetent was Art Shell? He goes from 70 receptions to 10?

I would take Jordan in a heartbeat as a replacement for McGahee. Jordan may be pretty similar to McGahee running the ball, but is a far superior pass receiver. With Jordan, JP Losman would have a RB to drop the ball off to that opposing defenses would have to respect on every passing play.

The only problem that I have with Jordan is that he probably won't come cheap and he probably won't be happy if the Bills draft a good RB this year or next who will take touches away from him (personally, I would prefer to see the Bills wait until next year's draft to take a RB, but it's looking more and more like they are going to have to draft one this season now).

While this started out being a rather thin free agent market at the RB position, with Henry, Dillon and now perhaps Jordan being cut loose, the price for a free agent RB may drop some--which would be good for the Bills in terms of signing a # 2 RB or someone to replace McGahee. But, that could make it harder for the Bills to be able to get anything decent, in terms of a draft pick, in return for McGahee.

A best case scenario for the Bills would seem to be that they deal McGahee rather quickly and, then, have Oakland cut Jordan afterwards. I don't know if they will be able to pull that off, though.

It should be interesting to see what happens.

[Oaklandraider]

He might not even be cut if he does i wish lamont well

[Talk0fNewYork]

I'll take him over Mcgahee without even thinking about it, hey he may even learn the playbook!

[Michael82]

Hmm, this would make things interesting. I bet the Raiders would be interested in acquiring Willis then. :up:

[Bert102176]

wonder if they would do an even swap willis for lamont

[jpdex12]

Willis would look good as a Raider. Al Davis seems like he likes these kind of people (cough) Randy Moss, Phillip Buchanon.

[The Spaz]

He would be a good filler that is al. He is almost 30. I am not sure what kind of deal he would be looking for but I wouldn't give him a long term deal. I would rather resign A-train and draft a Lynch.

[ricogarion]

If you could land a Lomont Jordan you do what you can but get it done.Then again I would love to get Travis Henry back so I am dying for a quality running game.

[camelcowboy]

Power back for a road gratting line i like it.

[ricogarion]

That would be like "Little John" emerging from Sherwood Forest.The Bills OLine is huge like Redwoods reaching into the sky.So sweet I can't wait.
