Silver Minings: Raiders have the 4th pick in the draft heading into Week 12

While the losses isn’t good for fans the high draft pick can help them get ready for the future.

The Las Vegas Raiders tallied another loss, dropping their record to 2-8. It was their sixth loss in a row, falling to the Miami Dolphins 34-19 in a game in which they had no answer for the Dolphins’ offense.

It was the Raiders’ 10th game this season in which they were down by two scores. This was the first time this had happened since 1985. If the team continues on this path, it could be their worst season since 2018, when they finished 4-12.

However, the bright side of the losses is the high draft pick. Quarterback is a position of need, and fans are ready for new blood to be the signal caller. Sheduer Sanders’ consistent tweets after a loss build the buzz for the Raiders to find a franchise quarterback.

Going into Week 12, the Raiders sit at 4th in the NFL draft order.

With the offense and defense struggling, this football team is finding it hard to find wins. If the Raiders can’t turn it around, it could lead to a franchise quarterback in the future.
