ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported on NFL 32 that undrafted rookie QB Matt McGloin has made a "huge impression" on Raiders brass at OTAs and is a candidate to climb the depth chart.
"He's actually made a huge impression in the first two weeks of OTAs, to the point where he's pushing Tyler Wilson and Terrelle Pryor," said Mort. "So watch out for Matt McGloin to climb up the depth chart if he continues this." It's a nice story, but probably just confirmation that the Raiders don't have a franchise quarterback on their roster more than anything. The fact that Wilson was pushing Flynn early, and now Wilson and Pryor are failing to separate from Penn State alum McGloin is a huge indictment of Oakland's talent.
This may be the excuse RM wants to get rid of TP. Bah, this is exactly why Pryor should have started more games last season -- the Raiders lost 11 games without him anyway, so it would have made sense to see what Pryor could bring to the table. However, to be fair, I have to admit that I am uncertain whether anyone could have really impressed under last season's OC.
