Cornerback (6): Rashaan Melvin, Gareon Conley, Daryl Worley, Nick Nelson, Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, Antonio Hamilton
For the first time in a long time, the cornerback position group looks to not only have depth, but also talent. When healthy, Gareon Conley looks to be the real deal, and the Raiders got an absolute steal with the one-year deal they gave to former Indianapolis Colts corner Rashaan Melvin.
Last week, the team signed Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, and he will definitely make the team. If not suspended, expect Daryl Worley to be on the final 53-man roster, along with rookie Nick Nelson, who is currently battling a tweaked hamstring.
In addition to those five, I like Antonio Hamilton to make the regular season roster, although he still has to beat out the likes of Leon Hall and Shareece Wright to name a few. This is a spot to keep an eye on Thursday night, as the team starts to whittle down this roster to the guys who will take on the Rams in September.
