Offensive Line (9): Kolton Miller, Rodney Hudson, Trent Brown, Johnathan Cooper, Jordan Devey, Denver Kirkland, David Sharpe, Lester Cotton Sr., Brandon Parker

With injuries and suspensions in the first couple of weeks of the season, the offensive line is going to look a bit strange. Kolton Miller, Rodney Hudson, and Trent Brown are the only three players that are the ideal starters for the team, but Johnathan Cooper and Jordan Devey will fill the role nicely for the time being.

The one surprise player on this list for some will be Brandon Parker, especially considering how poorly he has played in the preseason. Parker has done nothing but prove that he is not a good player, but he is too young and versatile for the Raiders to release just yet.

Denver Kirkland, David Sharpe, and Lester Cotton Sr. all make the lineup as backups, but this will change once Denzelle Good, Richie Incognito, and Gabe Jackson return. Overall, this is a position group that lost Kelechi Osemele, which was a big blow, but in terms of talent as a whole, is a better unit than the one that nearly got Derek Carr killed last season.
