Kolton Miller

Kolton Miller will have the job of protecting Derek Carr‘s blindside and keeping Mack off of him this Sunday in London. Watching that level of talent walk away has to be awful, and this will be the first time the Raiders see him since the trade.

However good Mack is, Miller can help the Raiders get a win if he can hold him off long enough for Carr to make throws. You obviously can’t stop Mack, but you can rely upon his destruction of the game for as long as you can.

Miller is a key player to help the Raiders win this week, as is the rest of the offensive line, which has been great at times, and shoddy as well. The Raiders drafted Miller in the first round two years ago for these exact kind of matchups, and the hope is that he can be a difference maker on Sunday afternoon.
