Delete ST assistant Martin Bayless, who went to Houston as asst. DBs coach. I deleted the post entirely from the coaching staff, as it may not be filled.

Also, note the media is widely reporting the Raiders won the coin toss for the #6 overall pick in the draft. I marked the draft table accordingly.

Added a note saying there's a report Jimmy Raye is headed back to the Jets, but I cannot confirm. So I listed it with his coaching bio, along with the other reported but unconfirmed dismissals.

And thanks, True!

Add HC Art Shell, officially announced by the team on Raiders.com late tonight.

I'm sure coaching changes will come soon. I'll remove the "entering" from coaches' stats when they're officially retained and update new arrivals/departures when they're officially announced somewhere.

And thanks, as always, Jimi.

Corrected Art Shell's W/L record.

It appears the NFL has NOT in fact flipped the coin for the 6/7 pick. So I reset it to TBA.
