Arriving along with the other Raiders veterans today was second year cornerback, T.J. Carrie. As he gets ready to begin his second training camp, he is fully aware of the great expectations being placed upon him.
As a rookie seventh round pick last year, the Raiders coaches initially figured his main contributions would come on special teams as a return man. But it soon became apparent the local talent would make an major impact on the defense as well.
Fast forward to this offseason and the Raiders made very little effort to upgrade the cornerback position.
