2 Raiders interior offensive linemen ranked inside top-10 for 2020

Rodney Hudson, Center

Las Vegas saw their first interior lineman listed at No. 6 overall, and to nobody’s surprise, it was their elite center, Rodney Hudson. This is a guy who has flat out dominated since putting on the Silver and Black, and over the past two years, has not allowed quarterback Derek Carr to be touched.

Incredibly, Hudson was ranked as the third-best center in the league on this list, falling behind Jason Kelce of the Philadelphia Eagles, and Alex Mack from the Cleveland Browns. The big debate for the last few years has been whether or not Kelce or Hudson were the best centers in the league, so it was a bit surprising to see Linsey put Mack ahead of the Hudson.

Since 2015, Hudson has put together the highest-ranking seasons according to Pro Football Focus in terms of pass blocking, posting a rating of over 90 in three of those years. Hudson has not only become an elite player since joining the Raiders franchise, but some would argue that he is starting to carve out a Hall of Fame career.
