Following Organized Team Activities, Raiders linebacker Elandon Roberts spoke to the media. We have a partial transcript below.

Q: If you would take a second to be selfish, at this point in your career to be playing under Patrick Graham, to be playing in this regime and this era where everyone seems to be really bought in, how does that excite you, just the potential that you have for growth personally?

Roberts: "Oh man, it's not selfish. I feel like if I'm not coming in here every year trying to grow, then I'm just stuck in my ways. This is an adapt-or-die business and stuff like that. And I'm going to always adapt. I'm going to always continually change, because these offensive coordinators in this league, they're getting smarter and smarter, and they scheming it up every year better and better, even week to week. You've got to be able to adapt; you can't be stuck in your ways. Seeing new things and seeing just new concepts across the league - I mean, even Chip [Kelly], man, I'm in the lab and I'm like, 'He will not get me tomorrow.

"Him and Geno [Smith] will not get me.' But it's exciting. It's exciting, and it's good. It feels good to be able to say, 'Dang man, the offense got us today. We've got to do this, we've got to do that,' because you get to winning and you think this or you think that. No, I like the back and forth because it's competition and it's fun for me and stuff like that. So to answer your question, I definitely, every time I come in, I'm still trying to learn. I'm still trying to think about how offensive coordinators are looking at certain situations, what type of situations they're trying to put us in, and stuff like that.

"Because it don't just make me a better football player, it's making me a better communicator to be able to communicate to my defense about the situation that we might get put in, so that yeah it's not me making a play, but Lonnie [Johnson Jr.] might be able to jump a route or [Jeremy] Chinn might be able to jump a route, or Maxx [Crosby], he may just not even - without getting a sack I'm like, 'Hey, quick game, quick game,' and he's got to get his hand up to bat the ball down. So, we all winning the down, just off communication. It might not be me making a play, but it's the Raiders getting off the field so we can give our offense another opportunity."
