Colin Cowherd has Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purdy as the 10th best HC-QB Combo “A little bit of this is because Brock Purdy has been banged up. They average 28 points a game together, but again no Christian McCaffrey. I think Purdy is largely driven by Shanahan’s play calling and McCaffrey’s greatness, but he deserves credit, when he came back off his injury last season, Brock was excellent. So I would put them at 10.”

Roman loves Harris, but Harbaugh said he's not in football shape yet. Singletary to a paycut to 1.3M with 0 guaranteed. Assuming achilles is ok, most likely outcome is Harris eventually being the #2 over Tracy Wouldn't draft a NYG backup RB right now [Quoted](

Hemby is coming off a 2025 season with 230 attempts, 1,120 yards, and 7 touchdowns—all career highs outside of TDs. He's shown the ability to be a good receiver and is a capable runningback who can develop into a consistent RB2/RB3 type in the NFL. Udfa Isaiah Jatta notes Hemby will get more attention than initially discussed and could get a chance at the RB2 role if fourth-rounder Mike Washington Jr. struggles out of the gate with ball security and self-creation issues, or if Dylan Laube doesn't pan out.

Hemby is positioned to receive more attention than initially discussed as a potential RB2 option. Coming off a 2025 season with 230 attempts, 1,120 yards, and 7 touchdowns (career highs outside of TDs), he has shown the ability to be a good receiver and capable runningback. If fourth-round pick Mike Washington Jr. struggles with ball security and self-creation early, there is a strong chance Hemby or Dylan Laube get a chance into the RB2 role.

#Raiders just finished practice. Wasn’t the prettiest day for the offense. Here are a few takeaways: - Cousins connected with Bowers on a few big plays. The offense will go as far as Bowers takes them. - Mendoza under threw Malik Benson on a deep ball, leading to the ball be broken up by Decamerion Richardson. During 7-on-7, he was picked off by Greedy Vance. It was his first interception of camp. - Darien Porter took most of the first-team reps at outside cornerback. - Jermod McCoy is lookin...

Mike McCarthy on the Roman Wilson-Germie Bernard battle: "I think it's more competition for opportunity. Their roles are there, because both those guys have shown in the spring they can play all three positions." Take: Bet on Bernard for late season even if Roman wins early

PositiveRoleJul 25, 2026Silver And Black Pride
Hemby, a 2026 undrafted free agent from Indiana, brings intriguing size and physicality (6-foot, 210 pounds) that distinguishes him from Laube and Collier; recorded 230 carries for 1,120 yards and 7 touchdowns in 2025 plus 17 receptions for 165 yards and 9 kick returns for 203 yards. Hemby is a decisive, violent runner who thrives in both gap and zone schemes, excels between the tackles, and provides value as a pass protector and pass catcher. His physical power-running profile aligns with Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak's wide/outside zone scheme adapted with gap/power elements (similar to Seahawks system). Hemby's best path to the 53-man roster is displaying prowess in both special teams and offensive roles; viable that he slots in as RB3 behind Jeanty and Washington.

Undrafted free agent RB from Indiana has intriguing size (6-foot, 210 pounds) and physicality that positions him as a potential change-of-pace option in the Raiders backfield. The source notes Hemby brings a more natural, physical, between-the-tackles power style than competing RB3 candidates Dylan Laube and Chris Collier; he's a decisive runner in both gap and zone schemes, reliable pass protector, and pass catcher out of the backfield. Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak's scheme (wide/outside zone with incorporated gap/power elements from his Seattle tenure) makes Hemby's profile attractive. At 23 years old, Hemby was a core special teamer at Maryland and Indiana (9 kick returns, 203 yards) and displaying prowess in both the offensive and special teams units is his best path to a 53-man roster spot.
