Raiders rookie DE Clelin Ferrell on practice: “You’ve got to do the common things in an uncommon way.” Doesn’t want to return franchise to previous areas of success. Wants new standard. “That’s what the former Raiders told us. ‘Don’t try to be like us. Try to be better.’”

"If it doesn't work out for him, it won't be because he didn't try or he didn't care."
Clelin Ferrell already has impressed Derek Carr early in his Raiders tenure. (via @Schrock_And_Awe)https://t.co/bLQHIjoc1G pic.twitter.com/wFzFp7wlIW

Who you calling a rookie? Not #Raiders top pick Clelin Ferrell. Or Johnathan Abram, either. Draft choices expected to have immediate defensive impact. Plus Day 3 first-day-in-pads notes . . . https://t.co/QRXgXLF4JL

Really would be surprised if it’s not Madd Maxx starting across from Clelin Ferrell on opening day unless there is an injury or surprise vet signing.

Kolton Miller stout vs. DE Clelin Ferrell in pass rush rep, his focus on adding strength this offseason paying dividends. A reporter asked him Sunday if he’s too nice, whether he has edge to him. “Am I supposed to answer that?” https://t.co/n5OIK87iiP

"Maxx is good as hell … He's going to be somebody to watch out for."

We’re both Richmond, Va natives, 3K miles away from home. #clelinferrell @Cle_Missile from #benedictineHS & me? @STCVA #stchristophers. Two rivals from the Prep League and now, he’s an @Raiders stop gap/pass rusher. Me? A pesky @KPIXtv sports reporter. pic.twitter.com/EFpXkyAMCl
