Raiders' Jordan now the backup to Fargas at running back

“It's our first year together, we've played (eight) games together and we're still learning about players. That's what you do your first year.”

On the surface, Raiders running back LaMont Jordan's fall from grace seems mind-boggling. After all, he ranked second in the NFL through four games with 424 rushing yards and was the main reason the Raiders had ... via San Jose Mercury News

About time. Jordan has been hitting the line far to slow. He does have abilities recieving the ball out of the back field and making some good runs. He definately could be used in that capacity this year......Raider fan since 65

The Raiders would also be better served by starting Dominic Rhodes as the number two back until Jordan is fully recovered. Rhodes may make a comeback with more carries. Give him a chance. This guy ran for a significant number of yards in the SuperB.....Raider since 65

He has to be used sparingly because he's on the mend.

I don't think Bush has officially been activated from the pup list. I really hope he is a quality back and we can get a lot from him. Fargas has really been doing well here lately too and might still have a future with us.

After reading the article, Fargas may want to return if he really does well and shows he has a future. He doesn't seem like the type that will demand big money, so I'd look for him to return unless another team makes him an offer he can't refuse...

i really dont see another team offering him something. he's a raider for life. al loves him and kiffin has a bond with him. i dont think jordan or rhodes will be there though. after jordan leaves it will be bad luck for us cuz he'll do great somewhere then we will ask our selves why we let him go.
