Oakland Raiders position group preview: Offensive Line
The Oakland Raiders had one of the worst offensive line units, and it was a significant need this offseason. Was the issue resolved?
Looking at history, the Oakland Raiders had a top-4 offensive line in both 2016 and 2017. They were ranked No.1 and No. 4 in pass blocking efficiency. So it might come as a surprise that they were one of the worst in the league in 2018.
If you think about it, the only significant difference from 2016 and 2017 to 2018 was they replaced Austin Howard and Marshall Newhouse, who were average, with first-round pick OT Kolton Miller.
Of course, the Raiders also had Donald Penn shift from LT to RT.
