How bad was the decision to not keep Rodney Hudson?
Hudsen has gone on to become one of the best centers in the league for the Raiders while we've had nothing but trouble with the center position ever since.
I imagine that shitty Andy Heck makes a difference but still, not good. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...season#slide16 2. Rodney Hudson, Oakland Raiders Jeff Haynes/Associated Press Pass Protection: 22/25 Run Block: 19/25 Power: 18/20 Agility: 16/20 Position Value: 6/10 Overall Grade: 81/100 Rodney Hudson has developed into the NFL's best pass-protection center since arriving in Oakland in 2015, and he's been key in keeping Derek Carr upright on so many of his reps. Hudson's strength is the trump card, and when he combines that with his relentless effort and active feet, it's hard to generate leverage or get him out of position. —NFL1000 OL Scout Ethan Young Oakland's offense was a problem in 2017, and that included a line that regressed in both run and pass blocking. But when Hudson's isolated on tape, it's clear he's still a tremendous player. Few interior offensive linemen can match his combination of pure in-line power, body control and agility to and through the second level. —NFL1000 Lead Scout Doug Farrar |

Morse has always been a ****in pussy OL. A finesse C made of glass.
Chiefs ran the ball better w/ Fulton at C. Hudson IMO just wasn't worth the cost. Doesn't matter, Chiefs won't win shit with Reid/Sutton.

Little known fact: Rodney Hudson's cap hit this year is only 2.7 million. I don't think his number this year prevented Mack's signing.

Not sure about Hudson, but losing the others from the 2013 line was a killer. The last several games of that season the starters averaged 36 points/game, and that included a 7-point stinker vs the Colts. With garbage receivers and Smith in his first year of Reid's offense, btw.

He just makes a ton of money for a center, it's hard to justify that, the same as I'm sure some people are mad Fulton left and his contract is also stupid.

Why not trade for Hudson?
Gruden is doing a massive overhaul and we could use him.
