| 1. | Darren McFadden | (RotoWire) McFadden had six carries for 25 yards and caught three passes for 10 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over Cincinnati. Analysis: Meanwhile, Justin Fargas carried the ball eight times for 32 yards and Michael Bush added four rushes for 27 yards. Unless McFadden is still injured, it's sort of curious why Oakland would give an even distribution of work among three runners, considering McFadden was a high draft pick. While Fargas and Bush aren't stiffs, at some point the Raiders need to feature McFadden to see if he can be an every-down back. | 18 hours | |
| 2. | McFadden gets nine touches | (Rotoworld) Darren McFadden ran for 25 yards on six carries and caught three passes for 10 yards in the Raiders' Week 11 win. Analysis: McFadden's nine touches were second to Justin Fargas (ten), even though Michael Bush (four) started the game. McFadden will be the best bet for work here going forward, but he needs to make Fargas and Bush irrelevant again to be considered for fantasy use. He is still worth owning in all leagues. | 19 hours | |
| 3. | Raiders | Bush to start in Week 11 | (KFFL) David White, of the San Francisco Chronicle, reports Oakland Raiders RB Michael Bush will remain the team's starting running back in Week 11. However, head coach Tom Cable is expected to go with the hot hand in a rotation with RBs Darren McFadden and Justin Fargas. | 2 days | |
| 4. | Bush to start against Bengals | (FFChamps) Oakland Raiders' head coach Tom Cable announced that Michael Bush would get the nod as the team's starting tailback against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. Analysis: Bush topped the century mark last weekend, which pretty much nobody in the fantasy football world forecasted (a stray touchdown, perhaps...but Bush is not known for piling up the yards, even against matador defensive fronts like the Chiefs). And while Bush may be the starter this Sunday against Cincinnati, it's nearly impossible to predict which Raider back will prosper...if any. Cincinnati's defense is number two in the league agai...

| 5. | Raiders | McFadden not an option to return kicks | (KFFL) Jerry McDonald, of ANG Newspapers, reports Oakland Raiders RB Darren McFadden will not be used as a kick returner, according to head coach Tom Cable, despite having success in that role in college. | 5 days | |
| 6. | Darren McFadden | (RotoWire) McFadden (knee) returned to action on Sunday but had just four carries for 11 yards in the Raiders' loss to the Chiefs. Analysis: Fellow running backs Michael Bush and Justin Fargas both must have sensed that they could lose some playing time with McFadden back in action, because both of them played well against the Chiefs -- Bush ran for over 100 yards and Fargas scored a touchdown in his second straight game. Expect the Raiders to continue rotating their running backs in some fashion over the next few weeks. | 7 days | |
| 7. | Raiders | McFadden quiet in return | (KFFL) Jerry McDonald, of ANG Newspapers, reports Oakland Raiders RB Darren McFadden (knee) had 11 yards rushing on four carries in his return to action in Week 10. | 7 days |
