The win over the Patriots last week briefly had people wondering if they might have a shot at making a playoff run. Then they went to Pittsburgh on Christmas Eve and ensured they would finish this season with a losing record.
So, now, sitting at 6-9 on the season, the conversation is again shifting to the draft where the Raiders are sitting inside the top ten.
The Raiders currently are in line for the 9th overall pick. Here is what the top ten looks like according to Tankathon.com.
1. Texans 2-12-1
2. Bears 3-12
3. Seahawks (from DEN 4-11)
4. Cardinals 4-11
5. Colts 4-10-1
6. Falcons 5-10
7. Lions (from LAR 5-10)
8. Panthers 6-9
9. Raiders 6-9
10. Eagles (from NO 6-9)
With two games left, the Raiders could still pick as high as third overall. They end the season with two of their toughest matchups against the 49ers and Chiefs.
