With only two weeks remaining in the preseason schedule there are several battles going on for a spot on the final 53 man roster.

As the Week 3 dress rehearsal preseason game approaches, coaches and general managers across the league have entered a critical point in evaluating their roster. Players fighting for a spot on the 53-man roster only have two weeks remaining to make a good impression. NFL teams have until September 1st to determine final roster cuts.

The Oakland Raiders like many other teams in the league have a number of players who have impressed and made a strong case for themselves staying with the team when the season begins. Most notable, undrafted free agent running back, Chris Warren III has made the most of his opportunity.

Let’s take a look at some names to keep an eye on throughout the remaining preseason games as they continue to prove to coaches that they deserve a spot on the team.
