No. 7 – Derek Carr

Remarkably, the Raiders find themselves in second place in the AFC West with a record of 2-3. Carr has improved in his second year as a starter, and could be right on the verge of being in the elite category within the next couple of seasons.

National pundits are even starting to get on the Derek Carr bandwagon. NFL.com’s Gregg Rosenthal says he’s “Impressed how steady Derek Carr has been. Not a poor full game all season and not the reason they lost last two weeks.”

While he hasn’t had any “poor full games” he is still having poor moments, for example the pick six to Chris Harris.
