FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — After five straight practices that concluded with an intrasquad scrimmage Friday, the New England Patriots were off over the weekend.They return this week with a busy schedule on tap. Their first of three joint practices (this one with the Indianapolis Colts) is Tuesday. Their first preseason game is Thursday.So to reset before an eventful few days, let’s look at the Patriots who are rising or falling after two weeks of training camp.Patriots risers and fallersChad GraffRisersDeMario Douglas, WRI hesitated with this one. You could argue that Douglas has been a riser in every training camp, but his strong July and August starts haven’t translated to the massive breakout many have predicted. So it’s valid to be in wait-and-see mode with Douglas.Still, I put him here for two reasons. First, he just keeps making plays, including a deep ball in Friday’s scrimmage and a grab in the end zone. The second is that the Patriots seem more willing to feature him in the offense, often using him as the third receiver in 11 personnel.I get it if you’re skeptical, given how often we’ve seen Douglas featured in categories like this one. But I’m buying the hype again.Tanner Arkin, TEThe Patriots could still look to the waiver wire in a couple of weeks for tight end help, but for now it seems pretty clear which tight end they trust most for the blocking role left vacant by Julian Hill’s season-ending injury.Arkin’s upside in the passing game is limited, but it seems the Patriots want a No. 3 tight end both to play in 13 personnel (which the Los Angeles Rams used so well a year ago) and as a blocking option in short-yardage situations. At 262 pounds, Arkin is a big tight end, but that size shows up in his blocking prowess.Chad Muma, LBWith the Patriots struggling to find linebacker depth a year ago, they signed Muma off the Indianapolis Colts’ practice squad last December. At the time, it seemed like a short-term fix.But Muma is now practicing with the Patriots’ starting base defense alongside Robert Spillane and Christian Elliss.Muma brings an athletic profile to the position that Spillane and Elliss lack, with the speed (4.63-second 40) and explosiveness (a 40-inch vertical leap) to run with tight ends.Will Campbell, LTIt’s well documented that Campbell’s playoff performance didn’t go as planned after he suffered a late-season knee injury.But Campbell has shown up to training camp looking exactly the way you’d want a second-year former first-round pick to look. He has missed the last two practices while sporting an elbow brace, but it doesn’t look too serious considering coach Mike Vrabel said he expects the 22-year-old to practice this week.More importantly, Campbell has done an impressive job against the New England edge rushers in camp. Maybe that speaks to the players they currently have on the edge, but it’s notable nonetheless.Karon Prunty, CBWith Carlton Davis missing several practices, the Patriots have used a few different players opposite Christian Gonzalez on the outside. But Prunty is the one who most looks the part.The fifth-round rookie has good size for the outside (6-foot-1 with nearly 32-inch arms) and great speed (4.45-second 40) and has impressed in camp with better-than-expected ball skills after nabbing just two interceptions over his last three collegiate seasons.Christian Gonzalez, CBOK, maybe this is unfair. How can Gonzalez be considered a “riser” when he is already seen as one of the best in the NFL at his position?But the 24-year-old has risen to the challenge of continually going up against a big, physical No. 1 wide receiver in A.J. Brown and often gets the better of him. He’s in the midst of a lengthy contract negotiation, but it doesn’t seem to have impacted his play. He looks primed for a monster season.FallersKyle Williams, WRThis one feels a little conflicted.On the one hand, everything Vrabel has said suggests that Williams’ spot on the roster is safe and that the team plans to carve out a role for him. Vrabel even named Williams an offseason award winner.On the other hand, Williams spends most practices with the second-team offense and doesn’t often stand out, even against the backups.The open kick-return job will probably be an important one in determining how much Williams sees the field this season.CJ Dippre, TEAfter Hill’s injury, the door was wide open for backup tight ends to make an impression. But Dippre was limited by an injury and only recently rejoined practices.In the meantime, rookie Eli Raridon has impressed in the passing game, and Arkin has impressed in the run game.That leaves Dippre behind the eight ball with three weeks remaining until roster cutdown day.Lan Larison, RBSimilar to tight end, the No. 3 running back job was wide open. It still is.Larison seemed to get the first chance at the gig early in training camp, but it seems he didn’t do enough to secure the job. With preseason games approaching, the guess here is that Terrell Jennings and Jam Miller are a bit ahead of Larison on the depth chart.Interior O-line depthThe Patriots’ backup interior linemen have been so mediocre that the team brought in veterans for tryouts. Coaches even flipped James Hudson and rookie Caleb Lomu to guard for stretches.It was always a bit surprising that the Patriots didn’t do more this offseason to bolster their interior depth, especially given Alijah Vera-Tucker’s injury history and Jared Wilson’s struggles as a rookie.Kobee Minor, CBLook, it can be difficult to rate cornerback play in 11-on-11 practices. You don’t know what the defensive play call was or if a big gain happened because of a mistake from someone else.That said, receivers have made too many plays in front of Minor to ignore, and the second-year man looks like he’s behind Gonzalez, Davis, Prunty, Charles Woods, Kindle Vildor and Channing Canada on the depth chart.
