According to the Sacramento Bee, Raiders rookie RB Darren McFadden could line up at wide receiver or tailback. He also could be used in the backfield with Justin Fargas, the starting tailback at the end of last season. Coach Lane Kiffin's greatest success at USC came when he had two very different running backs Reggie Bush, who could play all over the field, and LenDale White, who could batter opponents. Kiffin won't be able to see how Fargas, McFadden and Michael Bush work together this weekend at the team's minicamp, but McFadden already likes how the coach has rotated backs. "I feel it's something I can bring to Oakland, being a versatile player, that I can move around and give them a different style," McFadden said. (Updated 05/09/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
McFadden is going to play plenty of roles for the Raiders and could be lined up wide like the Saints use Bush. Expect McFadden to get plenty of touches and consider him a No. 2 Fantasy option in 2008. (Updated 05/09/2008).
