There’s no debate when it comes to the Raiders’ top position group. It’s the interior offensive line.
Position coach Mike Tice said last summer of the Raiders’ trio of center Rodney Hudson, left guard Kelechi Osemele and right guard Gabe Jackson: “Those three guys as a trio there could be as good as any three guys I’ve been blessed to coach.”
And that was before Osemele and Hudson earned their first Pro Bowl nods (Jackson was named an alternate) and Osemele was named a first-team All-Pro selection.
The Raiders also have some solid backups in Jon Feliciano, Vadal Alexander and Denver Kirkland that can play multiple spots on the offensive line and be counted upon.
