Raiders | Amari Cooper to get shadowed in Week 3 Fri Sep 21, 02:21 PM
Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper will likely be followed across the formation by Miami Dolphins CB Xavien Howard in Week, according to Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald.
| Footballguys view: Cooper's outlook is dimmed by this development, but he can still get enough targets to be worth a boom/bust WR3/Flex start. If Howard is on his game, it could be a good game for Jordy Nelson or Jared Cook this week. |

Raiders | Martavis Bryant has coach's confidence Thu Sep 13, 11:08 AM
Oakland Raiders WR Martavis Bryant has the confidence of head coach Jon Gruden after re-signing with the team Tuesday, Sept. 11. 'He's a guy who has proven he can go up and get the deep ball in contested situations,' Gruden said of Bryant. 'He can run away from you. He can make you miss. He can make big plays down the field. We're hoping we can bottle up where he is now. He's in a great place. He has a great state of mind. We'll see what happens.'
| Footballguys view: Bryant still faces potential sanctions from the NFL but for this week, he's active. That said, this is a bad matchup against the Denver Broncos and last week didn't make us feel good about this passing offense anyway. We'd avoid Bryant this week. |
