Ranking the AFC West by offensive tackles

The key to any team's success is how well they can protect the quarterback. And when it comes to the AFC West, there isn't a lot to be excited about. I found myself picking the lesser of the evils. Therefore the results may surprise you.

Even with the relative uncertainty at right tackle, the Raiders still have the best tackles in the division. Donald Penn leads the way, of course, as the former Pro Bowl left tackle returned to form last season and clearly still have something left in the tank. At right tackle, there is a good competition going on between Former second round pick Watson and last year's big free agent acquisition Howard.
