After an exciting week, the workouts for the 2025 NFL Combine come to a close on Sunday.
To round out the field, the offensive linemen will be running their drills. The Las Vegas Raiders are not necessarily pressed to find anybody in this group, drafting starting center Jackson Powers-Johnson and right tackle D.J. Glaze on Day Two of last year. However, left tackle Kolton Miller’s contract expires after the 2025 season, and more offensive line depth is never a bad idea to invest in.
With some clear needs, here are five options for the Raiders to look closely at on the final day of the combine:
Marcus Mbow, G, Purdue
Out of all the prospects scheduled to perform on Sunday, Mbow is widely expected to put together one of the best days overall.
Mbow is regarded as arguably the most versatile offensive lineman in the class, playing tackle at Purdue while being considered a guard at the NFL level. There are even scouts convinced Mbow has a future at center, giving him an edge due to the weakness of that position group this year. The Raiders are a team that could plug-and-play Mbow at left guard if they draft him on Day Two, or they can elect to keep him as a developmental chess piece all along the line.
An impressive day from Mbow would give the Raiders plenty to consider in the second round, especially if they have a new franchise quarterback to build around.
Ozzy Trapilo, OT, Boston College
With the Raiders in need of a developmental swing tackle, Trapilo stands out as one of the better options available in the class.
Trapilo is going to immediately draw attention with his massive frame, being listed as six-foot-eight and 309 pounds according to Boston College’s measurements. A strong athletic day will provide a massive boost to his stock, as well as how he does position-wise. While run blocking is going to be something to work on as Trapilo rounds out his game, he offers versatility, explosion and a willingness to attack in pass-blocking sets that scouts will appreciate.
Trapilo is on the borderline right now, and the combine will decide whether or not he earns consideration for a Day Two selection.
Tate Ratledge, G, Georgia
If the Raiders are looking to return to the days of punishing physical play, Ratledge is the type of player they will fall in love with immediately.
Georgia has consistently produced hard-nosed offensive linemen over the past few seasons, so a leader like Ratledge will naturally draw some interest. Despite facing injuries throughout his career, Ratledge’s tape is amongst the cleanest in the entire class. Coming in with clean medical records, as well as impressing in the athletic and positional drills, will all but lock him in as a Day Two selection.
Ratledge is one of the best natural guards available in the draft, and a strong performance on Sunday will confirm that notion.
Chase Lundt, OT, UConn
UConn’s first winning season in football since 2010 came at a perfect time for Lundt, who was able to get scouts’ attention as a result of the on-field success.
Unlike the aforementioned Trapilo, Lundt’s bread and butter is his aggression in the run game. His strength and athleticism allowed him to open up lanes for the Huskies all season long, and he now gets the chance to prove what is seen on tape. Seeing his technique in pass protections sets will also be an asset for Lundt during the combine, as scouts get to see what they have to work on in that department.
Lundt is the type of mauling offensive lineman the Raiders have traditionally appreciated, so a good combine would lead to his name being one to circle.
Logan Brown, OT/G, Kansas
Versatility is the name of the game for drafting an offensive lineman late, and Brown projects as one such option.
Offering some comparison to current Raider Thayer Munford, Brown was a five-star prospect at tackle who struggled a bit due to injuries. However, he put together plenty of positive reps, as well as having the size-athleticism combination that scouts often rave about. How Brown looks by comparison to his peers, as well as how scouts judge his technique in position drills, will go a long way towards deciding what future the former Jayhawk has in the league.
Brown is a potential Day Three steal that could impress beyond his draft position, assuming the combine does not lift him too far up the boards.
