OLB Sam Williams' recovery from a torn knee ligament is just about complete, and he is expected at full strength by the time the Raiders start training camp a month or so from now. He missed all of last season after sustaining the injury in a training camp drill last year. A subsequent surgery remedied the problem, though Williams has endured a lengthy rehab process. He said he feels fine and ready to go.

Hasnt this guy been out for two years,it was so long ago I had even forgot about him,and I would love to see better play at LB,but if anyone is counting on this guy we are in trouble nobody ever comes back from injury the same.

I'll cross my fingers and pull out my rabbits foot and four leaf clovers and hope this guy comes back even for a limited roll,but most likely he will get cut.

Deadman

Thoams howard is better and will start over him

Sam Williams has been nothing more than dead weight at this point... Sam Williams = Jerry Porter = James Jett!

In no way is porter dead weight he had one arguement but hes loyal to the raiders and the fans and the one who reported that said porter and shell were fine now.

The fact that he had an argument and stated that he didn't appreciate Art Shell coming in and bringing discipline is enough for me. Shell Kicked him out of the office. How long before the next outburst. The real problem is, Porter has not produced at the level that he should. 6 years Roc and this dude has not broken out yet!

When a player esp. a seasoned vet starts to complain that a new head coach is bringing discipline to the team, that player needs to be shown the door. Sounds to me like he just doesn't want to win bad enough to change the team for the better. 6 years is long enough to prove something, anything and all he's proven is that he's a *****.

dump him!!!

My problem with him is he's only a West Coast Offense player not a vertical player,and like last year when Moss got 3 defenders he should have been open and or scored every time that happened.."WE HAVE TO GET THAT PRESSURE OFF OF MOSS!" it will open our whole offense up.

Also I know Art is going to run the ball more,but I think he needs to throw more because we have so many quality receivers that sit on their a** or are gimped up..OPEN THE PLAYBOOK!

Also I caught a few episode of that ass-wipe Saulibury on ESPISSING and his crew try to rate teams and positions all weekend..WHY DO I SUBJECT MYSELF TO THAT SH'T??? They are never right,and they seem to be working along side of the agents of these f'ked up players they hype...sick!

I don't know sh't half the time but I can tell you the teams that will be better,and the teams who will take a dump.

Better who knows how much?.......
Raiders..Figure 8-8 or better..please be better Art!
Ravins..They now have a QB,a gimp but a QB none the less
Dolphins..Saban knows what the f'k hes doing too bad he has dopers..lookout
Cowgirls..Should play better defense
Cardinals..They have some of the best offensive players of any team

Dump City USA!...
Sqeelers..Rookies in handcuffs,qbs on the hoods of cars...Please!
Donks..Defense was good last year,will slump this year trust me I know how the Rat operates.
Colts..Played weak teams all last year and thought they were great,expect the opposite this year.
Chumps..Herman Edwards is a crock of sh't as a coach,and will get owned by the other three teams in the division..Last place easy!
Dolts..Rookie QB,no defense left could be an LT ham-sting away from going 0-16
