We’re at the end of our countdown where we reach the stars on this Raiders team.

5. LT Kolton Miller

Though he has never been to a Pro Bowl, he is routinely been one of the better blindside protectors in the league the past five years. Those don’t grow on trees.

4. P AJ Cole

Best punter in the league. Periodt.

3. DT Christian Wilkins

Big time addition to the this team. One of the best interior defenders in the league and one of the more likable teammates as well.

2. WR Davante Adams

Even in a down year, even with shaky QB play, he’s still put up some of the best numbers in the NFL. His 103 catches last season is tied for third most in a season in franchise history. And it was his fifth season with over 100 catches in his career. Last season he surpassed 10K career receiving yards. Future Hall of Famer.

1. EDGE Maxx Crosby

Best defender in the league. Got my vote for Defensive Player of the Year. And he’s the heart and soul of this team.
