Schaub is ready for a new beginning. "A fresh start can do a lot of things for a player and a team and I'm one of those guys," Schaub said. "Last year did not go as I had planned, given my prior nine years before that. I'm looking for a fresh start, I'm excited for the opportunity here." Indeed, Oakland now has veteran who was atop the team's offseason wish list and someone who reduces the pressure on the team to use its first-round pick -- No. 5 overall -- on a quarterback. "We weren't going to let last season deter us from the player and the track record that he has shown over his career," offensive coordinator Greg Olson said. "He was our No. 1 target from Day 1, and it was just a matter of getting the deal done."
