The Facts: Whether it's rookie Derek Carr or veteran Matt Schaub at quarterback for the Raiders come Week 1, Oakland plans to lean heavily on its ground game. "We're gonna run the ball, run the ball, then run it again, until the defense stops us," OT Donald Penn told SiriusXM NFL Radio on Monday.

Diehards Line: After beefing up Oakland's front five with the addition of Penn and guard Austin Howard, general manager Reggie McKenzie mined the open market to add running back Maurice Jones-Drew alongside the re-signed Darren McFadden. As NFL.com suggested, a healthy McFadden is the better of the two today, but MJD wasn't handed $7.5 million over three years to sit and watch. The Raiders plan to use both backs -- along with Marcel Reece, a favorite of owner Mark Davis -- to bang away at opponents on the ground. The question is whether either back will get enough done to be useful to fantasy football owners. We'll be watching for more clarity on the division of workload when training camp begins.
