Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Culpepper worked out in the afternoon before a gathering of Raiders scouts and coaches. The workout was private and Culpepper left without speaking to reporters, but HC Lane Kiffin announced the signing shortly after the Raiders completed practice. "We had to see him run around, scramble and do different things because his arm didn't go away," Kiffin said." Kiffin acknowledged that the Raiders wanted Culpepper partially due to the situation with Russell. The No. 1 pick has yet to sign a contract with Oakland and negotiations between the two sides slowed over the weekend.
