2019 NFL Draft Superlatives: Offensive Tackle

Jon Gruden and the Raiders doubled up at offensive tackle in the 2018 draft selecting Kolton Miller in the 1st round and Brandon Parker in the 3rd round. Both tackles need time to develop and had more poor performances than good ones last season. Tackle could be addressed in this upcoming draft if Mike Mayock isn’t convinced either tackle is a viable piece of the roster moving forward.

Some people are down on this tackle group because there isn’t a surefire top left tackle in the class. There are, however, 4 or 5 players who will be starting at right tackle day 1 in the NFL and never look back.
