Oakland Raiders 08/29/2007 4:19 PMAP reports the competition that began with three QBs -- all who had starting experience in the NFL -- is now down to Josh McCown and Daunte Culpepper. HC Lane Kiffin said Tuesday that Andrew Walter, who started eight games last season for the Raiders, would be the No. 3 quarterback. "We're both still relatively new to this thing, as is everybody, for that matter, but at the same time, I just go out and work," McCown said of him and Culpepper. "I don't put any chips on my shoulder or make myself get going like I am the underdog."Read more

And that amount might not be clear for a long time, given that the matter is almost certain to be resolved by an arbitrator.Read more
