Day 78 of posting my favorite Raiders player to wear the number of the day: Art Shell


A vital piece of the best O-Line in Raiders history, Art Shell was an absolute monster in the trenches. Shell was a first or second-team All-Pro choice six consecutive years from 1973 through 1978. He also played in eight Pro Bowl games and 23 postseason contests, including eight AFL/AFC championships and the Raiders' victories in Super Bowls 11 and 15. One of the few numbers that I believe should be retired, as everyone that wears it is in Shells shadow.
