Offensive Line (9): Donald Penn, Kolton Miller, Gabe Jackson, Kelechi Osemele, Rodney Hudson, Ian Silberman, David Sharpe, Jon Feliciano, Brandon Parker

The starting offensive line for the Raiders is set in stone, and in 2018, it is going to be one of the best in all of football. The interior of the line may all end up in the Pro Bowl, as Gabe Jackson, Kelechi Osemele, and Rodney Hudson are an elite trio, and their current right tackle was a Pro Bowl left tackle last season.

Donald Penn is making the move to right tackle this season, as first rounder Kolton Miller will take over on the left side. The Raiders are rolling the dice starting Miller on the left side, but he has shown he can handle himself over there, and having Penn on the other side means the Raiders are going to get nice push all season long.

Behind those five, the reserves on the offensive line give the Raiders nice depth up front. Ian Silberman, David Sharpe, Jon Feliciano, and Brandon Parker are all talented offensive lineman, and have the talent to play up and down the offensive line, which will prove huge if someone goes down to injury in 2018.
