Raiders Add Hartwell

The Oakland Raiders signed linebacker Ed Hartwell.

Hartwell was out of the league last season after being released by the Cincinnati Bengals before the season. He'd been plagued by knee and heel injuries while with the Atlanta Falcons in the 2005 and 2006 seasons.

Hartwell spent his first four NFL seasons with the Baltimore Ravens between 2001 and 2004.

Mark, are you going to do your team by team off season breakdown again this year? If so, when are you going to start?

Yeah, I'm planning to do it. I'll start it within the next few days, by Monday at the latest.

Typical Raiders: "Let's bring on some old, broken-down retreads, and ask them to save our team." This is why the Silver and BLEECCHHH can't win more than five games a year. A winning season? Just WHEN, baby?

Not a raiders fan, but its not that bad of a deal. Back in 2004, he was the best free agent available. They must have signed him real cheap, and if he comes close to being the player he was in Baltimore, then they got a steal.
