This week’s picks

Bryan Edwards receiving yards O/U: 34.5

■ Vincent Bonsignore: Under — The Raiders will highlight Darren Waller, Henry Ruggs and Hunter Renfrow. Only one football.

■ Ed Graney: Over — Different play-caller. Even more throwing.

■ Adam Hill: Over — Expect Derek Carr to go back to him after the ugly drop last week against the Bears.

■ Sam Gordon: Over — The second-year wideout is due to break out after totaling 26 receiving yards in his last two games.

■ Heidi Fang: Over — After a long wait, Edwards may actually deliver this week.

Josh Jacobs rushing yards O/U: 49.5

■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — It’s either that or the Raiders limp home with their third straight loss.

■ Ed Graney: Under — What, they signed a completely new offensive line?

■ Adam Hill: Under — Jacobs should be fine despite the illness that forced him out of Thursday’s practice. The offensive line is another story.

■ Sam Gordon: Under — The Raiders rank 29th in the NFL in rushing, and Jacobs hasn’t eclipsed that mark this year while running behind a leaky offensive line.

■ Heidi Fang: Over — Jacobs is nursing an illness, but for the last two opponents that beat Denver, the key to winning was to run the football.

Derek Carr longest completion O/U: 38.5

■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — The Raiders will challenge the Broncos vertically.

■ Ed Graney: Under — It’s tough running go routes in altitude.

■ Adam Hill: Over — Carr will have a whole lot more freedom with Gruden gone and could look to open things up, especially if the Raiders fall behind.

■ Sam Gordon: Over — The Raiders’ quarterback hasn’t hesitated to push the ball down the field this season and has several targets capable of getting behind Denver’s defense.

■ Heidi Fang: Over — Carr will try to air it out at least a few times. Expect Ruggs to grab one for 40-plus.

Javonte Williams combined rushing and receiving yards O/U: 64.5

■ Vincent Bonsignore: Under — The Raiders are well aware of the Broncos’ dual-threat weapon.

■ Ed Graney: Over — Right on the number. Like within a yard.

■ Adam Hill: Over — The rookie is in the top three among all running backs in total missed tackles forced. At some point, the Broncos will start giving him the ball.

■ Sam Gordon: Over — The rookie running back is a capable receiving threat and is coming off an 81-yard outing.

■ Heidi Fang: Over — Williams hasn’t been especially hot, but the Raiders have given up about 133 yards per game on the ground. Williams for 15 touches and 75 yards.

Courtland Sutton receiving yards O/U: 62.5

■ Vincent Bonsignore: Over — Sutton broke loose with 127 yards receiving last week. The Broncos will go back to that.

■ Ed Graney: Over — Could really hurt depleted Raiders secondary.

■ Adam Hill: Under — The only reason for not taking the over here is that lockdown corner Casey Hayward Jr. may be covering him for much of the game.

■ Sam Gordon: Under — In four games against the Raiders, the former Southern Methodist standout has averaged 4.5 catches and 61.5 yards.

■ Heidi Fang: Under — Even though Sutton is coming off a game in which he had more than 100 receiving yards on 11 targets, he’s held in check this week.
