is making Raiders roster Maxx Crosby Oakland Raiders Jersey , Keon Hatcher 3 TD night ‘put himself into position’ For the fifth year in a row, Seth Roberts will be a part of the Oakland Raiders. The former undrafted free agent out of West Alabama was given his stamp of approval Thursday night following the team’s final preseason game.“I like Seth Roberts,” said Jon Gruden. “I think he’s proven that he’s a good player in this league. He had 8 or 9 days he was away, he was injured. We know what we have in Seth Roberts. He’ll be an Oakland Raider this year and we’re happy about that.” And there you have it.Gruden had said earlier this week that Dwayne Harris had beaten out Ryan Switzer for the job of return man and slot receiver. And you figure Amari Cooper, Jordy Nelson, and Martavis Bryant are locks. That gives the Raiders five receivers. They will keep at most six.The primary contenders for that spot up to this point were Marcell Ateman and Johnny Holton. Keon Hatcher made a late push by putting on a show tonight, catching 8 passes for 128 yards and 3 touchdowns, but that may not be enough to secure that sixth spot.“Keon Hatcher, what can you say about that kid? That’s a great story,” said Gruden. “He put himself in position to make this team. Not only as a receiver Maxx Crosby Oakland Raiders Jersey , but as a special teams performer.”Gruden said he’s emotional right now because there are guys like Hatcher of whom he’s really proud and will have a tough call to make tomorrow.Should Hatcher be among the cuts, he could garner interest around the league based on his performance tonight. If he doesn’t get signed, he could be back on the practice squad for the second season.My money would be on Ateman taking that final spot. He was the team’s 7th round draft choice and he has shown some strong skills as a jump ball specialist and possession receiver.Follow @LeviDamien Analyzing Nasir Adderley’s potential fit in the Silver and Black"WhiteFanposts Fanshots Raiders StoriesScheduleRosterStatsYahoo Raiders NewsYahoo Raiders Team PageYahoo Raiders ReportYahoo Raiders Depth ChartYahoo Raiders TransactionsYahoo Raiders PhotosOdds About Masthead Community Guidelines StubHub ✕NFL DraftNFL Draft ProfilesRaiders Draft 2019NFL Draft 2019 scouting report: Nasir Adderley is the best safety in this draftNew,38commentsAnalyzing Nasir Adderley’s potential fit in the Silver and BlackPDTShareTweetShareShareNFL Draft 2019 scouting report: Nasir Adderley is the best safety in this draftChuck Cook-USA TODAY SportsMeasurables6’0”, 206 lbs40-yard dash: 4.54 (Pro Day w/ injury)Bench Press: 19 repsVertical Jump: 39 inchesNote: Had hamstring injuryStats2016: 51 tackles, 8 passes defended2017: 49 tackles, 6 passes defended, 2 interceptions2018: 78 tackles, 8 passes defended, 5 interceptions2019: 48 tackles Maxx Crosby Jersey 2019 , 9 passes defended, 3 interceptionsAwards2016: Third-team All-CAA2017: All-CAA First Team2018: All-CAA First TeamCombine and Senior Bowl inviteStrengths Nice speed and agility allowing him to make plays sideline to sideline, with the strength and size to complete the play. Football IQ and game sense both above average, gives him a jump on plays that he utilizes well. Attacks every play, both in pass coverage and run support. Keeps eyes on the quarterback consistently. Solid tackler, can make the tough open-field tackles. Intelligence to read the play and determine optimal choice, athleticism to make it happen more often than not.WeaknessTruthfully, there aren’t many. The obvious one is the level of competition. Playing at Delaware Adderley was not necessarily playing against the cream of the crop. Scouts point out that he played against very few NFL-caliber players. Other knock is a lack of man coverage from the safety position as he played a huge majority of his snaps in single high sets after switching from corner to safety in his junior year. VerdictIn my opinion, Adderley is the top safety option in this class. He could benefit from some coaching at the next level, especially in play recognition as he wasn’t facing the best or most diverse offenses in college. Adderley’s experience is paramount Cheap Maxx Crosby Jersey , teams will love his ability to play cornerback and safety.Pro ComparisonEarl ThomasFit with RaidersJon Gruden got a first hand look at Adderley while he coached him at the Senior Bowl, and he reportedly loved him. It is no surprise that Oakland needs help in the secondary (at both positions), and Adderley has experience at both. He would likely supplant any of the team’s options as a starter, or at the very least would push them all for snaps. Adderley’s motor is that of a ‘Gruden Grinder’ and he will be an option with either the late first picks ( 24 and 27) or the second round pick (35).Oakland would be smart to snag Adderley whenever possible. With the safety misses in previous drafts (Obi Melifonwu, Shalom Luani, Karl Joseph) the Raiders are still searching for a long-term solution. Adderley can be that player with potential to be the next star safety in the NFL.
