What does the future hold for Washington? I'm close to pursuing, I don't know to take it as good or bad that Oakland didn't resign Murray or sign any free agents. They're probably holding out for the draft. I'm just curious to see everyones input on him going forward, with your opinion on what Oakland will do with the backfield.

I like him and the Raiders must see something in him and Richard. Even a rookie is not a guarantee they get pushed off their perch. I wouldn't over pay by any means but a mid to late second type value is acceptable in my opinion.

Recently dropped him because I needed the roster spot. Just don't think he'll be more than a change of pace back or part of committee at best.

Well..after seeing, last December, that Murray might leave as a FA, I looked at both rb's as both were available and picked up Richard because I decided he was the better risk over Washington. I'm happy I have him on my roster and think it would be great if the Raiders sign Beast Mode because they might forget about drafting an RB high. Once beast mode gets hurt both Richard and Washington will get their shot...let the best man win..I, or you, may have an RB1 for very little investment.

AP and Charles might still be FA at that time...

I'm holding Richard with the exact same expectation.
