Dude was legit one of the most physically gifted QBs this world has seen. But, as this channel has taught us, talent doesn’t mean much if you don’t have strong work ethic.
GooD point, also,, Ima throw this out there,,, My Blakk QBs tend to take the "physical" work ethic very serious,,, but not so much work ethic at preparing to perfect the "XOXO's" just a thought.. Respect
That’s an outdated stigma. The current ones in the pros can process a lot, presnap, going through 2 & 3 reads, read defenses, etc… Cam might be the only QB this applies to, and that’s because he works out and even he is able to make a depleted Pats offense work to some extent.
@@caleb6590 what he is saying is that up until recently you had a lot of qb’s who were black who would work really hard on the physical part of the game and neglect the mental part (reading defenses, manipulating secondaries, etc.) so you tended to see a lot of black qb’s get in the game and just really of their physical gifts
Those fumble numbers are alarming. That’s what happens when your team doesn’t protect, but also you don’t protect yourself in the pocket. Even though he was a big QB, he was getting popped regularly. With his poor training and work ethic, he was an easy sack.

My God. This is the ultimate example of body vs mind. He had all the physical tools to be one of the greatest ever but at the same time had the mental makeup to derail that possibility. True definition of wasted potential.
JaMarcus Russell's story really show the difference between amateur sports and the world of pro sports. The pressure, the level, the freedom to let go etc. Many speculate, but seriously what really happened to this guy? Had all the talent. SGmusic: th-cam.com/users/stuntedgrowthmusic
@stunted growth I’m a big fan of your videos but you missing a big piece of the Jamarcus russell story. Going into that 3rd season, his father figure and his uncle passed away, after that, he was done, He didn’t have that love of the game and the raiders set him up to fail with no receivers and no offensive linemen. Sure he could have worked harder but raiders didn’t do their part either. He is doing well now. Much love
Which players was tricked into by being told the lower rookie pay would increase veterans pay. Which was a lie. So they lowered the rookie scale and didn't pay the veterans any higher at all. F'd up
Russell works at the cold stone creamery up the street from me. Every now and then he tosses me a pint for a touchdown pass out the door. He's a really nice guy.
Can never be mad at my raiders for taking him it was the right choice he sabotaged himself couldn't see that coming.. just wish Al Davis listened to our coach and picked Calvin Johnson tho smh
I feel like this happens once a decade. Ryan Leaf, JaMarcus Russel. I’d say this decades JaMarcus was Sam Darnold. He didn’t lack the work ethic. But he was supposed to be the next big thing. You would’ve thought he was the next Peyton Manning, pre ‘18 draft
I wished he was able reincarnate his career if someone gave him another opportunity to be a backup and go through the trenches. Maybe he would’ve found that love for the game again 🙏🏽!! JC, can you do a stunted growth story on the Dallas Carter High School Football team from 88-89?
I remember hyping him up and going to ever game confused. He was wearing a fur coat on the freaking sideline once. I still feel bad for him because the Franchise at that time was totally lossed and even Dan Marino would have looked bad
@@AS-xl9gb Facts bro and did you read his player's tribune story and see his interview w The Pivot Podcast? It's crazy how people were quick to put 100% blame on J-Rock, but's it really 50/50. Al Davis should've never drafted him especially since he wasn't wanted by the coaching staff that made it a toxic environment. Russell holding out during his rookie yr made it worse. The Raiders had no WRs nor O-Line to make his job easy. Russell should've seeked therapy after losing both uncles in the same year back to back. Russell should have perfected his craft and seek treatment for his codeine addiction early on. JaMarcus is now living his best life post-career. However it would've been nice to see a comeback story where he was giving a 2nd chance and reaching his potential as a QB; sometimes somebody has fall for others to see what not to do.
Wish I knew what happened to these bleacher report videos where he lost the fat and got in shape. Bleacher report deleted the videos. He got the fat down and got his athleticism back. This was in 2013-2014
A lot of people don’t know this, but he had a lot of personal issues going on in his life. I was in Alabama & knew several older people in his circle and some of his family members. The straw that broke JaMarcus’s back was when his uncle/father figure Ray Russell (a popular radio DJ & comedian in the Mobile, AL area who had connections with Steve Harvey and Rickey Smiley, just to name a few) was diagnosed with a bad heart, Russell jumped to the pros to try helping him out and to get a transplant (that was a prime reason why he wanted so much money). And when Ray died, Russell went to shit. Not trying to sound like I’m making excuses for him, but he just didn’t handle Ray’s death that well...I just wish he could’ve gotten his head together in time to make something of himself in the pros. On the flipside, Russell has (last I checked) landed an assistant coaching job at a high school in his hometown, so maybe he can use that experience to pass some cautionary words of wisdom to the kids coming up...
That’s tough but you gotta get back on the saddle and I watched that podcast he took no accountability for his actions at all and put it all on the team
@@chrisjacobs9101 he said that he could've done a better job with his weight and some playroom stuff. But that coach didn't want him to have the Jon in the first place
Brother was sipping a lot of lean n countless of other stuff in Oakland met him several times messed up off the drank at clubs in shit he has zero motivation to stay in the nfl
Was it a self sabotage if you know you lazy and can legally steal 31 million guaranteed? He got his money, I think his holdout was him knowing he wasn’t going to make it at the next level due to work ethic
It’s crazy because lane kiffin told Al Davis not to draft him & draft megatron. Context, they just lost randy moss on that draft day and I forgot who their QB was at the time but u could’ve got one in that 08 draft that had Matt Ryan & Joe Flacco or u could’ve taken a Darren McFadden like they originally did and waited till 09 and got Stafford if they instead of the lions got the #1 pick in the original timeline.
I remember watching him against Florida and nothing about him jumped out to me that said he was worthy of a 1st round grade. Sorry ass Notre Dame makes everyone look good, that bowl game elevated his stock.
Yep. I was living in Alabama at the time, so we got a lot of SEC games, and I saw him a lot his junior year. While he wasn't bad at all, like you said, nothing about him jumped out at me either. That Notre Dame team was actually pretty overrated with a very average to below average defense, and LSU had five playmakers on offense that were drafted and played in the NFL...they were just better than ND, and SHOULD have bombed them, which they did
He was one of the best college quarterbacks I’ve seen. College quarterback. I was never sold on this dude in the NFL. But I was sold on Brady Quinn. I was dead wrong about him and a lot of other qbs for that matter over the years. But Russell was one I wasn’t surprised about.
Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard. It’s tiring seeing highly ranked prospects fizzle out of the league because of a lack of effort and the wrong attitude / mindset. With all the examples of this happening, you would think that kids now a days would be smarter. But they’re not. In every sport, year after year this keeps happening. Crazy.
The Most Hyped Athlete Bust: 1) Boz 2) JaMarcus Russell 3) Anthony Bennett 4) Ryan Leaf 5) Bill Bene 6) Maurice Clarett 7) Jason Bonsignore 8) Akili Smith 9) Chris Washburn 10) Tony Mandarich Honorable Mention - Lawrence Phillips, Darko Milicic, and Charles Rogers
JaMarcus had all the physical and arm talent to be good qb if he really loved football and had a solid work ethic i think he could've stayed in league maybe he still becomes a bust but he could've aleast been a backup if he really cared about playing
Raiders gave Russell 50 million, then new head coach hated Russell, and the coaching staff. They lied to Russell and played mind games and then would take his computer out of Russell's film room and tell him they don't know what happen to his computer but he better find it then laugh and Russell found out it was the coaches doing it. They would lock Russell out of the film room after practice and when Russell went looking for a coach or key, he couldn't find either one because coaches would leave and take the key with them then go to reporters and say they never see Russell watching film and now we know why Russell could watch film
Damn we coulda had Megatron!! But on citas JaMarcus was kinda my favorite Raider QB as far as reppin Tha Town he jus treated it like a 3year sideshow!! Throwin Tds in practice off his knees. Even as All-Time Raider Oakland Raiders fan he still kool wit me. I jus pray he's 👌!
So kind to JaMarcus after just having watched the Manziel version. Literally the same story but you trash Johnny the entire video & build up & make excuses for JaMarcus you ignored for Johnny. It's ok to say you don't like Manziel because he's white, you don't even try and make it a secret.
The coaches did sabotage him lightweight to go along with his his baad work ethic. But I swear Dat I thought he was movin n 🐌 motion even b4 Tha sizzurp allegations Yee!!
It is what it is...hope you do well in the rest of your life and I pray God smiles down on you and helps you with whatever you choose to be your endeavors..nuff said
Dude threw a 60 yard pass on his knees in the end zone. His arm strength was off the charts. What he could have been if he just cared about the game. He didn't wanna play anymore. Thar simple
Damn. I didn't even know about this guy. Here I am still thinking Ryan Leaf was the biggest bust of all time at QB lol. Learn something everyday. Waste of talent and opportunity.
It's amazing how someone who has never reached the level of success this man has but can put labels on him. Bad offensive line and different coaches and system. Carr has been giving 8yrs and no bust label? I bet a black man didn't put this out. 🤔
Carr was never the problem in his tenure so far. I'm not a raiders fan but carr actually have been the best QB they had since Gannon. Russell on the other hand was lazy, idiotic, didn't study the playbooks, nor watched film. They gave this man a blank tape to watch and asked him the next day what he thought. Dude said "looks good" there's no excuses for that. QB's like Patrick Mahomes, Dak Prescott, Lamar Jackson..those guys aren't failures like this bum here was.
@@FreshPrincex4 Yep....Busts are busts, regardless of color. People say Ryan leaf is the biggest bust of all time, and what color would he be? Johnny Manziel, another bust...(A little bit less so given he was drafted in the 20s, but a bust nonetheless...)Brian bosworth, Tony Mandarich...busts. If you can't play, you can't play, regardless of your race. Not only did the raiders do the blank tape thing, but apparently they also had to bribe him with McDoubles just so he would attend film sessions. Dude had the talent, but just had absolutely no work ethic whatsoever.

There’s people who enjoy the game that just happen to come with the perks. Then there’s those that like the perks more than the game.
Yep, that was russel
Deeper than rap
Those fumble numbers are alarming. That’s what happens when your team doesn’t protect, but also you don’t protect yourself in the pocket. Even though he was a big QB, he was getting popped regularly. With his poor training and work ethic, he was an easy sack.
Her snaps the ball and literally 5 people are on him.... Kill that noise
The blank tape story still hilarious to be true

You should hate how dysfunctional your organization was at that time also.
@@AS-xl9gb - At that time the organization was attempting to right the ship by picking him. He was dud. Period.
He wasn't ready he was babied he needed time it was more mental
@@dariansmith337 - That was always apparent. He had the physical talent, without the mental fortitude.
@@d1inonly I feel like had they groomed him with some patience maybe he could have turned it around the whole thing was really crazy for modern times
I'll take the L and admit that I was a huge fan of this guy, thought he was going to be a star 😆 What a disaster.
You not the only one
JaMarcus has a voice that Hollywood would find serviceable.
6:00 well the NFL did restructure the old rookie wage scale. They no longer get paid obscene amounts of money anymore.
Which players was tricked into by being told the lower rookie pay would increase veterans pay. Which was a lie. So they lowered the rookie scale and didn't pay the veterans any higher at all. F'd up
Sam Bradford made out like a bandit, but his story was staying healthy.

The coach at the time wanted Matt leinart . VY won 🏆 Rookie of the year in-spite of his coach and the coach hated VY bc of that .
Sigh. As a Raiders fan, it’s best to not remember or discuss JaWalrus lmao. What a dark time in Raiders history.

In fairness to Rogers, two broken collarbones in two years would derail most NFL careers
In fairness to Bosworth, his shoulder injuries ended his two year NFL career in Seattle
Plus, he was a supplementary draft pick not a lottery pick
Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
Did he still get the 31 million guarantee pay? That's pretty sweet.
JaMarcus had all the physical and arm talent to be good qb if he really loved football and had a solid work ethic i think he could've stayed in league maybe he still becomes a bust but he could've aleast been a backup if he really cared about playing

Imagine a NFL team giving you $3 million to stay away 😂😂😂 that’s crazy!
“He’s a loser and soft.”
“Much respect, tho.” HOW, SWAY?!?! 😂
Seriously tho, Ryan Leaf be like “thank goodness for JaMarcus Russell!”
If "Disappointment in the flesh" was a person, it would be THIS dude....

He could have been a prime Cam Newton.
Minus the uber athleticism. Jamarcus was a decent athlete but he was more of pocket passer with decent scrambling ability.
He single-handedly ruined ruined rookie contracts for everyone
Russell still my fave Oakland QB after Gannon n Carr but JaMarcus jus got screwed! N I mean 95 till Oakland cats
Damn his weight was @ 315 pounds at one point 😐😐😐
Did the Pp loan on the league he the real goat 😂😂
I mean this Guy JaMarcus Could have been the Best but we all saw he wasn't 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣He Definitely Sabotaged his Career That's a Damn Shame.
As soon as he got that check he started drinking a lot of lean(cough syrup), and smoking a lot of weed, and that is a fact. :/
His drug use in Mobile streets is legendary 😎
This is why they should have drafted Calvin Johnson and kept Randy Moss that year, we’d be having a totally different conversation

This my blood cousin he gets no respect from me after the bs he pulled

Entitlement and Laziness. 2 words to sum up this dude and many other dudes with talent that I'd played with in college.
There's no mention about his addiction to "lean"????
Its was way worst QBS in the league at that time ..I would took a chance on him with a incentive based low contract ..
Jesus Christ is love
We need more lol
Ricky Williams
Great choice as usual my bro Jr 1 of the biggest busts Eva honestly had a arm like a Cannon doe ..love the videos
SC30
Plays, like the one at 4:27, are why I thought he’d be going to the HOF.

All they had to do was build a Cam Newton type gameplan around him and no let him throw all willy-nilly
Literally… The BiGGEST
Yes hes worse than anthony bennett
Ryan Leaf.
Oh damn this one is tragic 😂
He ate his way out of the league
Definitely got free money.
He had one job to do.
TRAGIC
