Raiders doing things the Raiders do

[Gary Cooper]

You can't blame current players for trying to win. Many of them won't be there next season. What do they care who the Raiders draft?

To properly tank, you need ownership to step in and promise a coach he has immunity if he just plays some crappy backup QB and runs a vanilla game plan. But that still can backfire on you with players who will return.

The Raiders are in a better place than other sorry teams just because they play in Vegas and free agents will want to move there.
