NAPA — With the Raiders taking the day off Monday, here are some 2017 training camp risers, fallers and those treading water with eight of 15 practices in the books:
Quarterback Derek Carr — Broken what? Hard to believe Carr is moving like he is with a plate in his ankle. Looks worth every penny of his $125 million deal.
Running back Marshawn Lynch — Impossible to tell with a physical runner like Lynch if he’s truly back to his 2014 form until he takes on real tacklers in a real game. But he’s practiced more than I thought he would and it will be fun to see him in September.
