DJ Hayden grabs another practice pick-six from Matt McGloin

NAPA, Calif. -- Cornerback DJ Hayden, the Oakland Raiders' first-round draft pick in 2013, is adapting well to playing in the slot, thank you very much. At least, when he's facing Matt McGloin in practice. Yes, the popular storyline at the moment is that McGloin the exhibition game player should be fitted for a gold jacket for the preseason Hall of Fame. If so, Hayden should have a practice bust, too, then. Because for at least the third time in Napa, the slot cornerback had a pick-six of the erstwhile Red Rifle. "He's had a really good camp," Raiders coach Jack Del Rio said of Hayden, who played six snaps an had a tackle in Friday's preseason opener at Arizona.
