Offensive Line
Trent Brown, Kolton Miller, Rodney Hudson, Lester Cotton Sr., Gabe Jackson, Jordan Devey, Denzelle Good, Brandon Parker (8)
The Raiders offensive line was decimated with injuries last season, and it is pretty incredible that Derek Carr was able to be so effective playing behind that group. Oakland started two rookies at the tackle positions for most of the year, and at guard, both Gabe Jackson and Kelechi Osemele missed time due to injury.
This offseason, the team traded Osemele to the New York Jets, and signed New England Patriots left tackle Trent Brown. He and second-year tackle Kolton Miller will be the bookends on this offensive line, and the Raiders do still have the best center in all of football in the person of Rodney Hudson.
Jackson should start at guard once again, and while Denzelle Good is expected to be the other starter, keep an eye on undrafted free agent rookie Lester Cotton Sr. He did not allow a single sack during his time in college, and is the kind of punishing blocker that should excel at the next level.
Jordan Devey was a nice pickup from Kansas City, as he has the ability to play both guard and center. Brandon Parker has put on some weight, and will be a reserve this season, after starting as a rookie, so that should help him progress for the Raiders without being thrown in the fire.
