The Raiders made the playoffs the season Gruden was fired.The Raiders have made worse draft picks than anyone the last few years - Ferrell was a total bust, Damon Arnette was a huge bust, Ruggs went to prison, there are a couple of other stinkers as well in there. I think the poor drafting and the stupid decision to hire McDaniels after the debacle with Chucky getting fired has contributed to the Raiders being lousy.
