What want to Matt Schaub's elbow pain





We have an interesting story, Oakland Raiders team regular method. Starting quarterback Matt Schaub didn't go to training on Sunday with he is pain elbow. Oakland manager Dennis Allen told reporters that he does not think it is a very serious problem. He will evaluate every day. What is the meaning of this? On the surface, at present, it means that he is to have a rest. But this is a familiar scene in Auckland. Matt Flynn, he entered the preseason starter last season, came up with an elbow pain at this time. It is not considered to be severe. Next, we know that Terrelle Pryor earned work into the start of the season. The second round pick Derek Carr on Sunday with the first team. I'm not saying that this year will be the same scenario. But this is an interesting coincidence. If Schaub’s issue is minor, there are both negatives and positives. Schaub and the first-team offense need to work more together. The passing game has been disjointed. Allen has said the entire offense has played a role in the malaise in the passing game. The missed practice time won't help. It won't hurt him to Seattle on Thursday to get some playing time. However, seem to doubt, in my opinion, even if the troubles are secondary. However, Carl is working with the first team's work will be good for him, maybe it can speed up the development. I think the best way is to see how long he, maybe is just a pain, he needs to rest for a few days. In Auckland, the other injured news, rookie defensive lineman Justin Ellis returned to practice and concussion after missing for two weeks. Tarell Brown practiced. He left the Friday's game in the green bay concussion. Central defender player concussion packers Nick Roach also left, don't work on Sunday.

Aldon Smith waited for his fate





Aldon Smith at has been achieved in the second week. The star of the San Francisco 49ers pass rusher meeting in New York for NFL commissioner Roger Goodall on Aug. 7. Smith may be suspended, because some personal questions. So far, Goodell has given no hint of his decision. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported last week that pause may be as long as six - to - eight games. Last week, the National Football League sources said, Goodell withdraw one to two weeks is expected to make a decision. This week, 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said Dan Skuta and Corey Lemonier could both help take over if Smith misses time. Both of those players played last season when the 49ers went 5-0 while Smith was in a treatment center. Smith star training camp, his coach John Harbaugh last week when a crow picked out Baltimore and 49ers worked together for three days. San Francisco coach Jim Smith Harbaugh said he "top" position. Smith has 42 sacks in 43 games.

Bear to McClellin remain optimistic





Shea McClellin produce lack of power, the defender on Friday in Chicago Bears in the preseason opener against the Philadelphia Eagles, but his transition of employees is still optimistic. In the first round of selection in the 2012 draft McClellin moved to play defense in the defender in the offseason pass - rusher pedestrians two seasons. Eagle, McClellin struggled in his first live in defender. He missed the solution, and strive to get rid of the block, and the bad the pursuit of Angle.But these fights do not exclude McClellin, however, almost every player has experienced up and down in the evening. McClellin happens to fall under the microscope often because he was the first round of the lineage. "It’s one of those things where he’s working at it," defensive coordinator Mel Tucker said. "We see him do it at practice. He looks very instinctive at practice. We saw him make sudden movements and quick decisions in the game. I think he’s already doing that to a certain extent. We just have to get better." Perhaps the most important component of that process is placing McClellin into as many live-game situations as possible so he can become more comfortable playing the position. Believe it or not, against Philadelphia, the Bears drew a difficult assignment given the first-team defense faced the Eagles’ potent no-huddle offense, which features plenty of zone-read concepts, in a situation in which the club hadn’t game-planned for the opposition. This makes a mess of open several series, but once settled defense, McClellin began to improve, He finished the game with two stops. The fact is that staff were not immediately available for McClellin light, because it knows firsthand the challenge for the defender in the transition from the defensive end. What employees want from McClellin incremental steps to become a strong starter." The bottom line is, shea shown here enough believes his defender of instinct, "linebackers coach reggie herring said." I think he'll be okay, "added the herring." He promised. He work hard. To tell you the truth, there are times when he is better than all of them. He changed direction, instinct, stealing the ball, it's a process. You want to have patience. We will know after the first game, second game, we are with him. Now, his schedule. He needs to play more games. He needs more to play, I really believe that he would come, and is a contender to us. This is my prediction."

The predator in tight end is very thin






"A preliminary report" suggests that grade two tight end Nick Kasasuffered season won't injured left knee at the end of the ACL on Tuesday, in practice, the Oakland Raiders of the lost ark is another market jitters. The predator has thin after tight end open training camp. David Ausberry, all nine 106 yards of capture 28 professional game was listed in the team's depth map for the first time in 2014, has experienced a "process" of his left knee last week. Mychal Rivera, 38 receptions for 407 and 2013, four touchdowns as a rookie, Brian Leonhardt practice spent 2013 squad, Kasa, once a capture nine - yard landing reception as a rookie, Auckland three tight end, rookie free agent Jake Murphy and Scott Simonson behind. Oh, there is no timetable Ausberry's return.
Again it’s the paging Jermichael Finley? The 27-year-old tight end 223 2785 yards to catch and 20 TDs in six years of his career, and the relationship between predator, general manager of reggie Mackenzie from his time in green bay. Finley, professional neck injury last season, with packer is limited to six games. Many think that the attackers have strict end - two professional level talent list bowl defender Marcel Reece, who plays a receiver in the university, is expected to be more involved in the predator's game. Marcel Reece, however, is 6 foot - 1, short tight end. "Yes, you know, we use him in the same role a lot," raiders of the lost ark coach Dennis Allen said on Sunday. "I mean, he and Mr Ma, Rivera is really a lot of the same type of things. You don't have a lot of thought process (Reece) as inline blocker... but some of the things we do and he was very similar with tight end what we do."

Khalil Mike "learning" in the NFL





But it may be accurately Khalil Mack didn't change the rules of the game in the Oakland Raiders "exhibition on Friday night in Minnesota, it may be a bit unfair. Mike, no. 5 on this year's NFL draft, there are two processing, a loss, and to the second quarter of the Vikings. Just don't have much really. ok, start the expected strong side defender in the coach.
 "I think you see a person, is a rookie, in his first game," raiders of the lost ark coach Dennis Allen in a conference call on Saturday, told reporters. “A couple of times we activated him on rushes and he was able to cause some disruption. But then there were some times where, a little bit in the run game and a little bit in the pass game, he is just a little bit late in reacting to his responsibility. “I don’t want them doing a whole lot of thinking; I want them just really basically reacting to what they see and go play football.” Mack said after the game it felt like “kind of a relief” to be playing in a game, exhibition or not. “Get out there and get back to playing football,” he said, “but at the same time, still (have) some sense of wanting to get better.” Mack has been compared to Von Miller by Allen and to Clay Matthews by Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie. Against the Vikings, Mack looks like a debut NFL, occasional flash. "This is what I mean, you can say I settled," said Mack. "I got a better today. I learned a lot."

Oakland Raiders signed Spencer Hadley and Larry Asante






Both McFadden and Johnson were on the injured players list, and they have not been contributing in practice. In an attempt to shed some injured non contributing players, the Oakland Raiders have signed two new players to their roster.  General Manager Reggie McKenzie announced the signings of both LB Spencer Hadley and S Larry Asante on Wednesday, August 6th.  In order to make room for these two players, the Raiders have released LB Marshal McFadden and S Shelton Johnson.  S Larry Asante was drafted in the 5th round of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns.  He played his college ball at Nebraska, and spent his time with the Browns on their practice squad.  Asante was signed by the Tampa Bay Bucs after a season ending injury to starting rookie FS Cody Grimm.  He appeared in the final two games of the 2010 season, recording an interception against Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints.  Asante spent the 2013 season with the Indianapolis Colts.  Asante is 6′ 0″ and 212 pounds.  He has recorded 16 tackles and 1 interception in the NFL.   LB Spencer Hadley is an undrafted rookie free agent out of BYU. He was originally with the New Orleans Saints early this year, but he is now wearing Silver and Black.  At 6′ 1″ and 227 pounds, Hadley will attempt to unseat one of the LB’s already on the depth chart for Oakland. Both these players will have to show a lot in order to unseat the players in their categories, But I am glad to see Mackenzie cut the weight of the injured list.

Raiders DJ Hayden officially on PUP list





Raiders head coach Dennis Allen had confirmed Hayden had an ankle injury during Minicamp, but later tests revealed that Hayden had a stress fracture in his foot after no progress was made in his recovery from the injury sustained during practices last month. Yesterday it was reported that DJ Hayden’s foot injury would likely put him on the PUP list for training camp, a big setback for the second year Oakland Raiders cornerback. That was confirmed today as Hayden was one of the Oakland Raiders on the Physically Unable to Perform list, officially ruled out with a stress fracture in his foot that required a small surgery. Raiders DJ Hayden, Several Raiders reporters confirmed the news, and a stress fracture in the foot could take up to eight weeks to heal which is a massive blow to the team’s plans at developing consistency at the cornerback position. Raiders DJ Hayden, Hayden will likely return to action this season based on the timeline for return from his injury, but when he does there will be a huge spotlight on the 2013 first round pick who after hitting the IR during his rookie season is being labelled as injury prone. Perhaps that is unfair for a player who can still come back and play the large majority of the 2014 season, but Raiders fans who are upset over Reggie McKenzie not drafting the likes of Sheldon Richardson and Star Lotulelei have been harsh on Hayden in the wake of his recent injury. Raiders DJ Hayden Hindsight is 20/20 and Hayden can still return to have a successful second season with the Raiders, but impatient members of Raider Nation are slowly turning on their former first round draft pick, Raiders DJ Hayden.
