Campbell named starter for Oakland

[Mooche]

Coach Tom Cable confirmed Wednesday that Jason Campbell will be the Raiders' starting quarterback this season.
Cable praised Campbell's "leadership and professionalism," and says the "guys have responded to that." Bruce Gradkowski is the favorite for backup duties. Campbell is easily Oakland's best option, but he'll be hard pressed for better than low-end QB2 fantasy value. The 2010 Rotoworld Draft Guide projects him to just barely top 3,000 yards, with a 15:10 TD-to-INT ratio. Jul. 28 - 3:30 pm et

Not a real surprise here. Never been sold on Campbell as a solid NFL QB, but in his defense he didn't have much to work with in Washington plus the changing of OC's rattled his progression as a whole. Hopefully the Raiders don't waste him..

He still has tons of potential and a chance to be a pro bowler in the league imo. His stats have gone up every single season, he's still getting better.

He needs to be put in a system, and allowed to develop with time and patience in the system. He didn't have that in Washington.

Well we just hired Hue Jackson as out offensive coordinator this offseason, and I would think he'd be here to stay. I really think Campbell's going to thrive under Hue. At least the Redskins only get the 4th round pick if Campbell makes the playoffs or the pro bowl.
