The Raiders have signed 38-year old fullback Lorenzo Neal to a 1-year deal.  Neal played in all 16 games for the Ravens last season and he carried the ball 12 times for 25 yards (2.1 ypc).  He also caught 7 passes for 35 yards (5.0 avg) last season.  Neal is like having an extra guard in the backfield as he loves to block in the running game.  Neal has now played in 239 games in his 16-year NFL career carrying the ball 226 times for 807 yards (3.6 ypc) with 6 TD runs.  Neal has also caught 199 passes for 1,086 yards (5.5 avg) with 12 TD grabs in his career.  This was a good signing for the Raiders as Neal really helps out a running game.
