The Raiders Starters For 2007 Regular Season...

QB) D. Culpepper will start, and should have an above average year. Josh McCown will probably get traded (to Atlanta)once Russell is signed, and Walter will stay until the season is over.

RB) L. Jordan will start, with Rhodes becoming the lightning to Jordan's thunder when his suspension is up. Expect Fargas & Echemandu to battle it out against Seattle to see who makes the team as the 3rd RB.

FB) Crockett/Griffith will both start, in different packages. O'neal will most likewly get cut unless he shows something next week in Seattle (doubtfoul).

WR) Porter & Curry are obviosuly the two starters, the #3 WR will be determined next week as M. Williams & T. Taylor will battle it out. J. Lee Higgins will now definately make the team after showing off his skills in last night's performance against the Rams, but he needs to still improve and be more consistant. Look for him to take majority of the punt return duties next week, and possibly during the 2007 season.

TE) It's a given, Z. Miller will start, with J. Madsen right behind him, who has played extremely well in pre-season.

LT) Sims LG) Gallery C)....Probably Grove, unless Newberry shows something next week RG) Carlisle RT) Green (who I believe still needs some work)

DE's) Kelly & D-Burg will start, with Moses coming in during situational pass rushing times, and Richardson coming in sometimes against the run when Kelly or D-Burg need breathers.

DT) Sapp & Sands will start, but i expect Warren to see some time to especially when we play teams like the Chiefs, Chargers & Broncos (for revenge). But it all depends on how well he is developing and whether or not he see's time against Seattle. He still might even be a long-shot to make the team (joining so late), but we'll see what happens.

MLB) Morrisson OLB's) Howard, Williams during pass situations and Thomas during run and goal line situations.

CB's) Asomugha & Fabs will start, with Routt or Carr to play Nickel back. Hiram Eugene might even make the team if he outplays Chris Johnson next week, especially if Startks doesn't play.

FS) Stu, maybe Huff (at times) SS) Huff, WHERE'S DARIUS???
