New OC Olson will play to McFadden's strength
Darren McFadden - RB - Oakland Raiders

New OC Greg Olson confirmed that he will be highlighting Darren McFadden.

Whereas fired OC Greg Knapp asked McFadden to fit into his offense, Olson is going to scheme to his player's strengths. "What we've decided to do, as a staff, is see what Darren McFadden is comfortable doing," Olson said. "Let's try and make it more comfortable for Darren, because he's one of our premier players." That means a return to the power-running game that McFadden excelled in under Hue Jackson. He's set up for a bounce-back season as he enters the final year of his rookie contract.
