Chris Warren III

He seems to be doing pretty good atm. He may never make it in the nfl but he certainly was better than anything we put out there run last year. Perhaps he just wasnt utilized properly.

They have him the ball last year and he didn't make many yards. He was horrible in pass protection

He learned from his mistakes.

I would say Texas was stubborn to put Porter ahead of Warren. I mean he is doing really well in this pre-season thus far. He never got to realize his potential at Texas. He did well running the ball and catching the ball(He had really good hands for a running back). But, it was his blocking that hurt him and unfortunately for him, it is an important part of the game.

Gruden had this to say about Warren:
"He's a good back, isn't he? I mean he's rushed for almost 200 yards in two weeks. And I know he's not playing against the regulars but he's not playing with the regulars either. He's a big powerful back that's taken care of the ball, he's gotta get better without the football. That's what it's all about with him. We know he can run, we know he's powerful and fast and elusive, but he's gotta get a lot better without the football to be an NFL back." Gruden told reporters.

Gruden translation:

He's big, he's strong, he runs good north and south, but he can't block for sh!t.

I like what marshawn lynch said to him:

"Why didn't you get drafted?"

"I don't know man...."

"Ya you do......".

Warren was upset about having to play HBack last year

Maybe in the NFL it will be different but if he is going to be on a NFL roster he must play special teams

All backup RBs, LBs and WRs are used on special teams.

If his attitude carries to the NFL he will not make a roster.

He's going to have to play lights out the next two games to make the Raiders roster. They have a couple backs ahead of him that can block and contribute on ST. He's probably looking at a spot on their practice squad unless he plays two more games lights out. Another team may sign him off of their practice squad. I'm rooting for him.
