The Las Vegas Raiders will start a rookie at right tackle in 2021, and the man playing left tackle is a perfect ally for him in Year 1.

With their only first round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the then-Oakland Raiders turned some heads by selecting Kolton Miller. At the time, Miller was not seen by all as a first round prospect, and with Donald Penn returning in 2018, left tackle did not seem like a real position of need.
