ALAMEDA, Calif -- The Oakland Raiders giving Trent Brown the richest contract for an offensive lineman in NFL history signals a sea change for what had been one of the best and most dominant units in the NFL.
It could also spell the end of Kolton Miller’s time at left tackle and the conclusion of Donald Penn’s tenure with the Raiders.
What more can you extrapolate from Brown getting a four-year deal worth up to $66 million, with $36.75 million guaranteed, after one successful year at left tackle, protecting Tom Brady’s blind side for the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots?
