Rodney Hudson (2015-Present)

The Oakland Raiders signed Rodney Hudson to a five year deal back in 2015, snatching the talented center from division rival Kansas City. Since putting on the Silver and Black, Hudson has been an elite player at his position, serving as the captain of a Raiders offensive line that has been special at times during his run with the team.

A two-time Pro Bowler for the Raiders, as he was absolutely robbed of the honor last season, Hudson is widely regarded as one of the best in the game. Hudson has dealt with a lot of change around him on the offensive line with the Raiders, but he has remained consistent, and is pretty much a human wall in front of Derek Carr.

The 2019 season is Hudson’s last on his current contract, and it is my belief that the team needs to do everything they can to make sure he is locked up for the move to Las Vegas. He is by far one of the better centers in the league, and at his age, he still has a ton of good football left in him.
