Raiders beat writer Steve Corkran predicted the starting Raider:

On offense, Jason Campbell is back as the starting quarterback. Darren McFadden is the running back, Marcel Reece the fullback, Kevin Boss the tight end, Chaz Schilens and Louis Murphy the leading candidates at the wide receiver spots.

The more Jacoby Ford does, the more damning it is for Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Telling moment - Gradkowski has Heyward-Bey in single coverage on his left, with the safety drifting cheating toward the middle. He sees this, drops back, and lets fly a deep pass down the right sideline toward Marcel Reece. It is intercepted by Yeremiah Bell. Gradkowski said he was giving Reece a chance, given what he’s shown as a playmaker. He never considered Heyward-Bey even after he saw the coverage.

Reece is an intriguing but undrafted wide receiver turned tight end turned fullback. Heyward-Bey is the No. 7 overall pick in the 2009 draft and the alleged deep threat of the future.

The coaching staff is starting to reduce Heyward-Bey’s time on the field. He had far fewer snaps than normal and when asked if Heyward-Bey was still nursing a sore hamstring, Cable said it was simply a factor of the wide receiver rotation.

Not sure if another Raiders receiver is capable of making the 44-yard touchdown grab from Gradkowski, smoothly hauling it in while turning to his left and stradding the sideline for the score. He later repeated his magic act of taking an interception away from a defender with his 52-yard reception to set up a field goal.

Bruce Gradkowski solidified his backup quarterback spot for the Oakland Raiders with a steady showing as the Raiders lost 28-24 to their Bay Area rivals, the San Francisco 49ers.

Gradkowski threw for 202 yards and two touchdowns after Jason Campbell left with an injury. He did not play in the first two exhibition games because of a groin injury and was in danger of falling behind Kyle Boller on the depth chart. But he completed 14 of 22 passes and led Oakland to scores on his first three drives. He threw touchdown passes to Louis Murphy and Zach Miller and set up a 57-yard field goal by Sebastian Janikowski.

Before leaving Campbell got off to another strong start, completing four passes for 67 yards on an 81-yard touchdown drive. Darrius Heyward-Beyhad two of his three catches on the drive, fullback Marcel Reece had a 34-yard reception and Michael Bush scored on a 1-yard run.

Bush also left the game with a broken left thumb and does not know how serious it is. DT Desmond Bryant had an elbow injury.

Raiders LG Robert Gallery was not on on the practice field, meaning he’s probably still at least a week away from returning. Defensvie end Greg Ellis, who had an arthritic knee drained, was not practicing.

Also out was fullback Luke Lawton (ankle). With Lawton out and Oren O’Neal waived/injured, Gary Russsell was taking first-team reps at fullback. Marcel Reece is available off the practice squad if necessary, with the Raiders not having to waive a player until game day since he’s already practicing with the team.

Linebacker Ricky Brown left the facility before practice to visit the doctor and said no one had discussed surgery with him as yet. Coach Tom Cable said Brown, who tore ligaments on the outside of his ankle, would be out for the season with surgery but could return in a month if rehabbed.

Jon Alston, who had a concussion against the Giants, was practicing with the team and should be available to start at strong side linebacker with Sam Williams in reserve.
