Raiders Mailbag: What did we learn from rookie minicamp?

Angelo Simao from California asks:

"Now that free agency and the draft are over, who do you see earning that RT job?

The Raiders didn't make any drastic changes or additions to the offensive tackle position, therefore I believe the frontrunner will continue to be DJ Glaze. The 2024 third-round pick has started 31 consecutive games for the Raiders, however he allowed a 11.7 quarterback pressure percentage in 2025, per NFL Next Gen Stats.

Charles Grant and rookie Trey Zuhn III are two players that should compete with Glaze for the job. Grant, a 2025 third-round pick from William & Mary, started at left tackle in the Raiders' season finale win.

And while Zuhn is currently listed at guard, his 6-foot-6, 312-pound makes him an ideal fit at that position. It also helps he has over 3,000 snaps at left tackle in his collegiate career at Texas A&M.

"[I'll] play wherever they need me," Zuhn told the media during rookie minicamp. "Play whatever gets me on the field ... just block the guy in front of me."
