Latavius Murray made his long awaited arrival as a starter in the Raiders backfield in 2015. At 6’3” 230 lbs, Murray has drawn comparisons to other big backs like Adrian Peterson and Matt Forte.
Murray burst onto the national scene in 2014. Remember that painful season? I know, I know. I hate opening ripping open scabs like this. But just look at where the Raiders were 2 years ago. Matt Schaub (vomits) was acquired from the Texans that off-season, but entered camp with a dead arm and was eventually dethroned by David Carr. Dennis Allen was fired that season after the team had started 0-4.
