With Raiders RB Darren McFadden missing practice this week to attend a youth football camp, RB Mike Goodson is getting "most of the 1st-team work," per beat writer Jerry McDonald. Goodson has reportedly looked good too. It's confirmation that he's ahead of 2nd-year RB Taiwan Jones in the battle for backup duties. The underrated Goodson should be able to hold off Jones. And that makes him an intriguing late-round flier considering the fact that McFadden has missed at least 3 games in each of his first 4 NFL seasons.
