Rolando McClain: Ranking the Best Fits for Disgruntled Raiders LB

A heavy situation between Rolando McClain and the Oakland Raiders has only gotten worse.

According to an ESPN.com article:

Oakland Raiders linebacker Rolando McClain has been informed by the team that he will be released on Thursday, a source told ESPN.com's John Clayton.

Coach Dennis Allen would give no more information about why he held McClain out. Allen said he did not know if McClain would practice Thursday.

Also, in an article by Paul Gutierrez of CSN Bay Area:

That said, let's move forward and see which teams could use McClain's skill set to improve defensively.
