Oakland Raiders: 5 Players on Roster Bubble Who Should Make Team

The Oakland Raiders' 2015 training camp should be especially intriguing. While there are still some starting jobs left to be won, more interesting will be the battles for spots deeper on the roster that are still up for grabs.

Oakland finds itself with a lot of young talent at several different positions. These are spots that might be overlooked in training camp and early in the year. But with the unstable nature of the NFL, it's possible that players who might have been seen as no more than reserves or special teamers could suddenly find themselves in positions where the team is depending on them to perform.

Because of this, reserve players can end up being just as important as the starters. If the team calls on them, they have to be ready to play. More importantly, they have to be able to perform at a high level.

These five players might not be major contributors over the course of the entire season, but they are capable of stepping in and helping the Raiders win if the need arises, making them deserving of a spot on the final roster.
