With another preseason game in the books the roster is starting to take shape and we're all starting to see more clarity on what roles players will have coming into this season. Most of the guys on the outside looking in did themselves no favors and there were few surprises. Most notable perhaps is the battle for the fourth running back is now completely neck and neck, perhaps slightly leaning towards the undrafted rookie. Here's my post Raiders game 53 man roster:
QB (2): Drew Brees, Luke McCown (Seneca Wallace, Ryan Griffin)
