Michael Huff back in the mix

Davis makes first appearance - Inside the Oakland Raiders - A look inside the world of the highly classified Oakland Raiders from the writers of ANG Newspapers

– Hiram Eugene spent some time with the second-team defense, with Michael Huff working with the first team at free safety.

Davis makes appearance...Huff goes into 1st string....

Either it's coincidence or...you know

But either way, f*ck Michelle Fluff.

– The second-team offensive line during one sequence consisted of left tackle Khalif Barnes, left guard Chris Morris, center John Wade, right guard Marcus Johnson and right tackle James Marten.

Does this mean Pears is challenging for starting reps or is it that Marten just rotates with him at RT on the second squad?

I can't imagine Green is best option at RT. If Henderson proves himself early, I think they should immediately ask Barnes to switch to RT.

I'm interested to learn how Marcus Johnson takes to playing RG. I know he played tackle before. Cooper Carlisle is a lock to start, but he's not getting any younger.

Looking at the pics from this off-season, Mario is a man now, and he looks convincing out there. We saw how he played last season, and he looks really dedicated. They ought to just move Khalif over now.

My guess:

LT: Henderson
LG: Gallery
C: Satele
RG: Carlisle
RT: Barnes

C: Wade
OT: Pears
OG: McQuistan
OG: Johnson

Practice Squad: G/C: Compass


That's a lot of versatility; McQuistan and Johnson have experience playing Guard and Tackle.

Would be the best line for us, I really hope Green isn't starting opening day.

I honestly would like to see Mitchell and Branch as starters...but of course they have to earn it. Eugene is ok at times, and Huff is Huff...

I'd like to see McQuistan in the starting lineup. I think he brings an edge, a nastiness, that our oline has been lacking. Depends if he's 100% healthy too though.

LT- Henderson
LG- Gallery
C- Satele
RG- CC
RT- McQuistan

Thats my hope too. I know it is wishful thinking but if Huff could turn the corner and become a decent ball hawk type safety, with Mitchell layin the wood and Aso and Johnson holden down the corners.......That would be a NICE secondary for years to come.

I say move Barnes to RT and leave McQuistan as a backup because he has more versitlity (can play tackle or guard). Barnes is here on a one year contract......he has got to prove his worth this year and we need to know what he can do.

Sick of ur $hit quit posting if your just gonna say unintelligent negative things

Is it possible that Huff can turn it around in his third year? I know it's not all that plausible, but Nnamdi took three years to excell granted after converting to a CB from Safety...

That would be such a relief if Huff could actually become a true NFL starter. I remember how much the media etc. talked him up to be the next best thing... the next Ed Reed... I would be ecstatic if he actually showed that he's got the skills and the will to be an NFL starting calibur safety.

That would be one less hole, one less project, and one less worry.
