Bengals rookie Andre Smith, who is still unsigned, will have an opportunity to win the starting right tackle job once he shows up to camp.
The Raiders want to use more of Darren McFadden, who was selected fourth overall in last year's draft and only averaged 11 touches per game.
Cowboys coach Wade Phillips said ofBarbi Bobby Carpenter, who is penciled in at nickel linebacker: "I think Bobby Carpenter’s done well. He looks good in the run, pass coverage looks good, he knows what to do and that’s a key thing. We put him in one position for a while, he’s been physical, athletic, all the things you’re looking for in a linebacker, so I look for Bobby to have a good year."
Speaking of Cowboys rookie Mike Mickens, Phillips said: “He's got great hands, Everson Walls kind of hands. He's got spectacular hands. I envision him being able to make plays ... because once he gets there, he has a chance to catch it.”
