Carr’s progression from a solid rookie season to establishing himself as one of the league’s better quarterbacks will factor heavily into the Raiders’ chances at success this year.

Against the St. Louis Rams last week, Andre Holmes was targeted one time in 18 snaps.
Finally, on Thursday, he had his moment of reckoning.
“I thought it went well”, Ponder said. Hayden’s first two years have been stalled by injuries, as he has missed 14 games in his two seasons.
The Raiders didn’t confirm the report and coach Jack Del Rio did not meet with the media on Wednesday. “Jobs need to be earned”. He wouldn’t have time to improve his standing in a competitive group.
A former undrafted free agent, McGloin has a 1-5 career record as a starter, but his victory in his debut start at Houston in 2013 remains the Raiders’ last road win. He was extraordinarily sharp final week, finishing 10 of 11 passes for 104 yards and a 16-yard landing to Brice Butler. “Rod looks fresh and with (Andre), we can’t wait to get him back”.
Carr raves concerning the closeness of the quarterbacks, which helps increase their communication on recreation days. “During the games, he’s there to ask questions”. I was out here trying to get mental reps. “It is a wholesome competitors and I am glad to be part of it”.
“He’s getting back in the flow of things”, Seely said of Richardson.
“I am wanting ahead to seeing all of it first-hand”, Del Rio stated. “The guys are going to love it”.
As the players traipsed off the training camp field after the final full practice in Napa, Crabtree taunted Hayden by showing him the ball.

Derek Carr threw deep to Crabtree, and Hayden had great coverage as the ball fell harmlessly to the ground. He hasn’t practiced since, missing his third straight day on Wednesday, although he was riding an exercise bike at the end of practice.
