Nerdy Football Analysis: Lynch will need to a pass a physical today but after months of rumors, it appears Lynch will be a Raider in 2017. Lynch (31) sat out the 2016 season but does have a lot of mileage on the tires and is on the wrong side of 30. While being consistently durable during most of his career, injuries caught up with him in 2015. limiting him to only 7 games. However, he’s a good fit for the Raiders offense who lost Latavius Murray in free agency and will likely step into lead-back role. He’s an RB2 with RB1 upside in redraft leagues.
