We’ve been saying for a while now that Oakland Raiders WR Louis Murphy is the Raider receiver to won in fantasy football. Everything we’ve seen and heard points to that, and Jerry McDonald of the Oakland Tribune supported that in a live chat on the paper’s website today.

According to beat writer Jerry McDonald of the Oakland Tribune, the Oakland Raiders first-round pick from a year ago is starting to get it. He says that Darrius Heyward-Bey is looking a lot better than he did last year. “Can’t roll my eyes anymore when Tom Cable tells how much Darrius Heyward-Bey has improved,” McDonald [...]

We came across several items for the Oakland Raiders recently and since not all of them are worthy of their own post, we thought we’d put some bullet points together. Of course you saw that they acquired Kamerion Wimbley from the Browns yesterday, but here are some others:

Oakland Raiders WR Darrius Heyward-Bey took a less-is-more attitude towards the New York Giants this week. He’s pretty much taken that approach to every game he’s played this year.

Actually, we should say Darrius Heyward-Bey is just not catching much of anything. In his attempt to wow the coaches at training camp, he might be pressing a little bit which is leading to a lot of footballs hitting the carpet. But, despite the hamstring injuries and dropped passes, Raiders head coach Tom Cable doesn’t [...]

Ah, the good ol’ Oakland Raiders. Beat writer Jerry McDonald says that right now Johnny Lee Higgins and Chaz Schilens are slated to be the starting wide receivers for the Raiders. That means that they have a #7-overall pick (Darrius Heyward-Bey) and a big money guy (they gave Javon Walker $16 million guaranteed last year, [...]
