The Oakland Raiders released their first depth chart of the preseason on Aug. 4.

James Jones is listed as a second-string receiver, behind Rod Streater and Andrew Holmes. The 30-year-old said Wednesday that he has felt "awesome" during training camp, and would not be happy if he had a reduced role this season.

At running back, new Raider Maurice Jones-Drew is listed ahead of Darren McFadden, but both will likely get a lot of playing time.

The Raiders' first-round pick, linebacker Khalil Mack, is listed as the starter at strongside linebacker. Oakland's second pick, quarterback David Carr, is listed as Matt Schaub's backup.
