... next great Oakland TE. Great pass catcher, good blocker, good speed for a TE of his size.
2. Brandon Myers- 6th. round pick. Great blocker in college. Good set of hands.
3. Chris O'Neill- UDFA. Not much info on him
4. Darrell Strong- UDFA from last year. Another good blocker. Probably second best pass catcher on roster at TE.
5. John Paul Foschi- former Raider. Can play TE and FB. Also plays special teams. Hasn't done much thus far.
6. Tony Stewart- last year's backup. Good blocker but was kept mostly for ...

Running Backs: Rankin, G. Russell, Lawton and Reece are all vying for 2 roster spots.
Wide receiver: Watkins, Holland and Nick Miller will battle it out for the final spot on the 53 man roster. I give the edge to Nick Miller now because of his return skill and the fact that incumbent kick returner Justin Miller has the dreaded turf toe.

... and Fargas combined for 160 yards on 24 carries. Despite McFadden returning, he had only 11 yards on just four carries. It leads me to question how valuable he is to this offense. Bush clearly looks superior on the ground and should get the bulk of the carries moving forward. Lastly, with an inept passing attack, we still have a very good tight end in Zach Miller. He was virtually non-existent in today's game with just one single catch for nine yards. We saw a little bit too much of Tony Stewart and ...
