Jersey , the Raiders could be looking to fill the spot with a seasoned,
albeit somewhat controversial free agent guard. Monday..."After going through
the entire 2019 draft without addressing the hole at guard, the Raiders could be
looking to fill the spot with a seasoned, albeit somewhat controversial free
agent guard. Monday the team is working out former Dolphins and Bills guard
Richie Incognito, according to ESPN¡¯s Mike Garafolo.Gruden hinted the team would
be looking to add another guard from the outside when he was asked about the
position last Friday.¡°Yes, Gabe [Jackson] will stay on the right, and the door
is wide open at left guard. We are going to continue to look at players that can
come in and compete at that position,¡± said Gruden.This is definitely an outside
guard, though there¡¯s certainly good reasons why Incognito is available.You
might remember Incognito missing the entire 2014 season after an incident in
Miami in which he was accused of harassing and making racial slurs to teammate
Johnathan Martin. He returned the following season, signed by Rex Ryan to join
Miami¡¯s rival Bills and starting 48 straight games in three seasons at left
guard.The 35-year-old Incognito had made three-straight Pro Bowls with the Bills
from 2015-17. He announced a year ago that he was retiring from football. Then a
month later changed his mind but the Bills had moved on and cut him.The guard
known for his dirty play hasn¡¯t exactly been...Incognito since he was released
last year. Not two weeks following his release from the Bills, Incognito was
placed on an ¡°involuntary psychiatric hold¡± for an incident at a Life Time
Fitness health club in Boca Raton, Florida. Incognito in which he allegedly
threw a tennis ball and a dumbbell at another gym patron. He was reported to be

being spied on.He was said to be working to be getting back in the NFL and last
August tweeted out that the Vikings and Seahawks were interested in him. Vikings
head coach Mike Zimmer was asked about it and Zimmer responded with, ¡°No
interest, and totally false. Tweet that.¡± Incognito responded on Twitter calling
Zimmer a ¡°f**king liar¡±. He later deleted the tweets and apologized for the
outburst.Two week after that tweet storm, Incognito was arrested for threatening
to shoot the employees at a funeral home while making funeral arrangements for
his father. Police seized two Glocks, three rifles, and a suppressor for a
handgun in Incognito¡¯s truck. Employees told Scottsdale police that Incognito
wanted his father¡¯s head cut off for research purposes, and that he had walked
through the funeral home punching caskets and throwing objects. Incognito was
charged with disorderly conduct and making threats.Character for days, this

making pre-draft visit to Raiders ThursdayBrian Spurlock-USA TODAY SportsWhile
the Raiders were hosting 38 players in their local pro day, off to the side,
Mike Mayock was casually chatting with someone. It was Nick Bosa, making his
official pre-draft visit to the team.Widely considered the draft¡¯s top pass
rusher, Bosa is expected to be selected in the top two picks, with most mock
drafts having the 49ers taking him at number two overall. That is unless the
Raiders were to get aggressive and use a couple of their four picks in the top
35 to move up a couple picks to get the Ohio State star.It¡¯s is probably the
most well known fact in the draft that the Raiders are desperate for a pass
rusher, so I wouldn¡¯t put it past them to do it. And the 49ers wouldn¡¯t lose
much by dropping two spots. Well, I mean, outside of the draft¡¯s top pass
rusher. But they made a trade with the Chiefs this offseason to acquire edge
rusher Dee Ford, so they have already made a move the Raiders have not.See our
pre-draft visit and workout tracker here.
