JaMarcus Russell wants back in the NFL

[Ed]

Should the Bills sign him? He's managed to lose a whopping 12 lbs since the fall to bring his current weight to 308 lbs. The man is dedicated! Just read some of his quotes in this article:

"The last few years, the things going through my life, football is my job and it is how it feeds my family. People would say [that] I didn't love the game but that pisses me off," Russell told Yahoo! Sports. "People don't know the real you but I want people to know the real me and see what I can do. People are always saying that I'm a bust. I want to show them I'm not. I'm committed to this now."

What say you? JaMarcus to the rescue?

He's fat enough to play OL.

Not smart enough though.

I bet he's already blown through all his millions and is just desperate for money now.

He would still need to drop about 60 more LBS.... he never impressed me as a player to begin with

"People are always saying that I'm a bust. I want to show them I'm not. I'm committed to this now."

Sorry, Jamarcus... If you weren't committed when you got $39 million guaranteed, I have no reason to believe that you're committed now.

I hear that the Jets are looking for a QB, though...

Re: JaMarcus Russell wants back in the NFL

guy still almost beat the bills his rookie season. classic buffalo.

i'm almost positive the bills will try to bring him in. anything to cement that we are the poorest run organization in the NFL. Russ and crew takes that title very seriously.

I like the last quote.

"It feels funny not to go through a training camp, that's just what I'm used to. It's going to feel good to go back out there again. I will make this happen."

Um dude, it's been over three years since your last training camp.

Actually, he's only about 45 lbs above his playing weight. He's a big guy, remember. Do I want him? Not particularly. If he does drop the weight and the Bills do their due dilligence and decide that whatever made him such a miserable failure a few years ago no longer is true, fine, sign him, but don't put many eggs in that basket.
