Javon Walker found unconscious in Vegas
The Raiders' newly signed receiver was apparently involved in a robbery attempt and was found unconscious early Monday morning in Las Vegas, where is listed in fair condition at a local hospital.
Walker signed a six-year, $55 million contract with the Raiders after being released in February by the Broncos.
Walker was also involved with another violent incident last year, although that one had deadly consequences. On Jan. 1, 2007, Walker was in the same vehicle as Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams, who was murdered in a drive-by shooting and died in Walker's arms.
It is unknown at this time whether Walker's injuries will prevent him from playing this season.

Maybe Al Davis should take one of his 50 or so RB's and move them out to "the Slot" position.
Will the Raiders ever get out of their own way again?
I'm sure Al Davis will find someway to blame this on Lane Kiffin.
I think these guys should walk around without all the bling they wear, and maybe the gangs won't go after them. I'm wondering right now if Javon was the target of that drive by and not Williams?
