Why do the Raiders always get the short end of the stick. If the last place teams end up tied why do we get the 4th pick and not the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd? I've been watching the drafts for a long time. I dont remember seeing a tie where we end up on top.RunOverByHubbard » Thu Nov 21, 2024 9:55 pm
A key tie breaker is Strength of Schedule. So, apparently the Raiders often play a hard schedule.16 to 88 » Thu Nov 21, 2024 10:48 pm
If we end up winning just 2 games then that means we will have lost to the Jaguars which would move us into 3rd and maybe beyond based on SOS. Still, a lot of ball left to be played. With all this in mind and on any Sunday...Raiderfanguy wrote Thu Nov 21, 2024 8:28 pm:Why do the Raiders always get the short end of the stick.

Titans and Jags play each other twice so ideally they split the series and both get a win. I don't see the Giants getting another win, possibly Dallas. Also to consider the last game of the year some playoff eligible teams might rest their starters so could effect things16 to 88 wrote Thu Nov 21, 2024 10:48 pm:If we end up winning just 2 games then that means we will have lost to the Jaguars which would move us into 3rd and maybe beyond based on SOS.

It's sad that I am having more fun watching other teams and rooting for wins and looses based on our draft position.AdamJoshua28 » Fri Nov 22, 2024 5:21 pm

The sad thing is two of the teams ahead of us in tanking both need QBs so little sanders and ward could go 3 and 4 and we'll end up with no QB but a CB.ELCAraiderfan » Fri Nov 22, 2024 6:36 pm
If we don't end up with our first choice of QB we damn well better draft the best OT in the draft.Dr Death » Sat Nov 23, 2024 5:37 am
That won't happen. The Raiders will always take the skill player over the foundation line players. I know we have taken O line players in the past, but it's rare. Gallery anyone?ELCAraiderfan wrote Fri Nov 22, 2024 6:36 pm:If we don't end up with our first choice of QB we damn well better draft the best OT in the draft.

Reports are that Telesco wanted Alt above all others and was taking him, even over Bowers, if he got that chance. Maybe it’s a new era.Dr Death wrote Sat Nov 23, 2024 5:37 am:That won't happen.
