Player Info:
Something to Prove in 2009
Russell has been a mystery to me so far in his career. This guy seems to have the tools for fantasy greatness and yet I'm not sure if he has the drive to succeed in the NFL. JaMarcus is now entering his 3rd season in the league. This should be the year we see Russell breakout for at least 20 touchdowns and 3,500 passing yards. But I don't believe that will be the case in 2009. Most of #2's short comings aren't his fault as he is in a run first offense and has no pr-oven number one receiver on the roster. Beyond those negatives working against him Russell him self seems to lack the pashion in camp this year I would like to see. In March JaMarcus opted to not attend voluntary workouts with the Raiders. Oakland then countered by signing veteran quarterback Jeff Garcia to back up Russell.
One thing I know about Garcia is that his isn't the type of guy to just sit back and be happy mentoring a young quarterback. No he will compete for the starting job and if at some point this year Russell is playing horrible, Jeff may get an opportunity.
Jamarcus Russell Fantasy Football Value in 2009
Look for Russell as a backup quarterback in deep leagues in your 2009 fantasy football draft. Russell does have solid talent and with a good tight end in Zach Millar, Jamarcus can lean on him as a go to man. #2 also receiver help in the draft with Darrious Hayward-Bey. While I beleive it was a foolish move for the Raiders to pass on Crabtree (two time Fred Biletnikoff winner) Bey is still a talent. Darrious also seems to have a good head on his shoulders as I've listened to some interview on radio with him. In the end you can get Russell at a very cheep price and who knows he may deliver on his talent in 2009.
Fantasy Assets:
- Strong Arm
- Good Tight End
- Good Weather Year Round
Fantasy Liability's
- Needs a Stronger Work Ethic
- Needs More Pr-oven Weapons Around him
