What do you guys think? If he does end up leaving the Raiders.

He's been about as injury prone as any other player in the league but he's undeniably a great talent when healthy. Best case scenario, Demarco goes down and then McFadden comes in...and then when Demarco is ready to come back, McFadden is probably injured again...just a revolving door of talented, injury-prone RBs.

Would you guys be interested?

No more injury prone players please.

It doesn't matter how talented a player is if he can't get on the field.

I take him in a heartbeat, the guy is super explosive when healthy...one of these yrs he will be healthy, may as we'll be with us.

No thank you! No power in his legs to break tackles. I'd rather keep Demarco Murray.

No thanks...but someone will overpay...or he could finally shake the injury bug.

What? Does our medical and training staff not have enough to worry about already? Is there anyone in the NFL more fragile than McFadden?

Yea I would take him on a 1 or 2 year deal if the price was right.. Not sure how anyone can deny that he is talented he is a rare blend of speed and power and can also catch the ball decently out of the backfield.. He is extremely injury prone and seems to sit out for durations that go beyond what you would expect out of the injury that he has.

And how.

I'm not sure what he's got.

After the hose job we got with Felix Jones..I'd just pass.

Felix was never even close to as talented as McFadden..Ever. And felix did not have a passion for football and let his body get sloppy.. If Mcfadden has passion for the game and wants to play for the Cowboys and wants to prove people wrong who say hes been a bust I would take him in a heartbeat.. If he pulls a Felix and decides he wants to be 30 lbs overweight and fail conditioning tests I want no part.. That kind of stuff is up to the coaches and staff to figure out what kind a guy he is and how much football really matters to him

I'll take a Raiders back, but it's Jennings not McFadden.

Ben Tate or LaGarette Blount could split carries as well.
