Jordan just can't get cut
It looks like Dominic Rhodes, not LaMont Jordan, will be walking the plant in Oakland. Jordan survives, at least for now. Any foolish souls like myself holding out hope Jordan will have a career revival should pray he gets released this summer. There are too many bodies in front of him in Oakland.

As an owner of Michael Bush in a dynasty league I am praying he gets let go...
what do you think of the chances he finds himself in another uniform with a chance to get a job SOMEWHERE?

I'm in the same boat... I can't see them cutting Bush b/c Jordan makes a lot more and is a lot older.
Best case scenario for us looks, to me, like: McFadden/Fargas in RBBC to start the season... Fargas inevitably gets hurt, which then leads to McFadden/Bush RBBC. If healthy, I'd think Bush gets goal line work and who knows what sort of mischief McFadden will get himself into on the rudderless Raiders while enjoying life in the Bay area.
I did the math and Oakland had 441 carries and 62 catches between Fargas/Rhodes/Jordan. Thats more than enough to split between two backs, while still being relatively productive, and you know they're going to be a run-first team with a young QB and a so-so receiving corps.
But, I hope I'm wrong and they keep Jordan over Bush...
