Raiders' Johnny Holton: Impressive throughout training camp

Holton was called the most improved player in training camp by quarterback Derek Carr, Scott Bair of CSNCalifornia.com reports.

Analysis:

Holton's stock among the long list of receivers on the Raiders depth chart has risen throughout camp, and he figures to be the leading candidate for the No. 5 spot behind Amari Cooper, Michael Crabtree, Seth Roberts, and Andre Holmes. Given his performance during the preseason, he's likely earned his place after coming into training camp with the chance of eventually being cut.
