We hit 70 in our Raiders countdown to kickoff. Who wore it best and who's wearing it now
We've reached 70 days until the Raiders season opener at Foxboro against the Patriots, With our countdown at 70 days we take a look at who currently dons the number in Silver & Black and who has brought it the most distinction.
No. 70
Who's wearing it now: T Parker Clements
Clements is an undrafted rookie out of Virginia Tech.
Who wore it best: T Henry Lawrence
Lawrence was the Raiders selection at 19 overall in the 1974 NFL Draft. And he spent his entire 13-year NFL career in Silver & Black. In 1977 -- Lawrence's first season as the team's full time starting right tackle -- the Raiders won their first Super Bowl. And Lawrence was manning that right tackle for their next two Super Bowl wins as well, finally being named to the Pro Bowl in 1983 and again a season later. One of only a handful of those who were starters on all three of the Raiders Super Bowl winning teams.
