Raiders sign a QB: Culpepper, not Russell
Oakland Raiders08/01/2007 9:43 AM The Mercury News reports the Raiders will have a big quarterback in training camp today, but it won't be 6-foot-6, 260-pound rookie QB JaMarcus Russell. QB Daunte Culpepper, 6-4 and listed at 265 pounds, passed a physical Tuesday, then signed a one-year contract. He will join the team this morning to begin competition with QB Josh McCown and QB Andrew Walter while Russell, the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, remains unsigned. "He'll be part of the competition to be the starting quarterback," HC Lane Kiffin said of Culpepper. "We'll give him the opportunity and see if he can take it, and if he can't, he'll be a backup. "He said he's not worried about competition. He said he's going to be the starter." Read more

If the Browns stick to that plan, QB Derek Anderson and QB Charlie Frye have 10 more practices and one game to try to win the job for the opener. An early decision would not seem, though, to bode well for QB Brady Quinn, who has not yet signed a contract. Read more
