Jason Campbell’s numbers are steadily increasing, but are they increasing enough to make him a legit fantasy football QB?  His 2009 stats weren’t eye-popping by any means, but when you consider how bad the team was around him in Washington, especially that offensive line, you have to be encouraged, if ever so slightly.  Again, Campbell used his superior athleticism to do everything he could to lead the offense, but he still seems to be uncomfortable throwing from the pocket and continues to be too timid in taking chances downfield.  His 2009 numbers were good enough to rank him as a decent backup QB, but that’s about as good as it gets with Campbell.

~ Ranked 14^th in the league in QB fantasy points with 218.3 (basic scoring system)

~ Ranked 18^th in the league with 20 passing touchdowns

~ Ranked 15^th in the league with a 86.4 QB Rating

~ Ranked tenth in the league with a 64.5% completion percentage

~ Ranked 16^th in the league with 226.1 passing yards per game

~ Ranked twelfth in the league with 327 completions

~ Ranked 13^th in the league with 507 attempts

~ Ranked 14^th in the league with 3,618 passing yards

~ Ranked 15^th in the league in yards/attempt (7.14)

~ Tied for third in the league for the most amount of sacks taken (43) by a QB who started at least ¾ of his team’s games

~ Set career bests in completions (327), attempts (507), completion percentage (64.5%), yards (3,618), passing TDs (20), yards/attempt (7.1), yards/game (226.1), and QB Rating (86.4)

Jason Campbell is now on the Oakland Raiders. If that doesn't sum up his fantasy worth, we're not sure what will, although it’s possible we could see a slight incline of his 2009 numbers.  He’s going from one screwy situation in Washington to another one in Oakland, so not a lot will change from that perspective.  His wide receivers, however, are younger, bigger, and faster than what he was working with in Washington, so there’s a chance he could be a decent backup fantasy player again in 2010.  Oakland hasn’t had a QB of his caliber (middle-of-the-road) in a little while, so they might just turn him loose enough to make him a good spot-play on your fantasy team this year.

~ His receivers are fast, hungry, and looking to erase the stigma placed upon them through the disaster that was JaMarcus Russell

~ The Oakland offensive line is better than what he was used to in Washington, so he might have some time to throw

~ The Raiders defense should be able to get him the ball back quickly.  If not, it means Oakland is losing, and Campbell is passing

Campbell might be a better player off the field than he is on it.

Too bad he's leaving to Oakland. I heard their babes aren't quite as nice.

Why so glum?  Oakland can't be THAT bad, can it?

Campbell was a restricted free agent at the beginning of the offseason and was extended a first-round tender from the Redskins.  Since then, he was traded to the Raiders where he ended up signing a two-year, $7.74 million contract that included a $100,000 workout bonus.  Here are the particulars:

2010 – $3.14 million

2011 - $4.5 million

2012 – Free Agent

Kyle Boller, Charlie Frye, and Bruce Gradkowski will be fighting it out to be the backup and handcuff to Campbell
