Oakland Raiders fall in first round of the 2019 NFL Draft

The Oakland Raiders went into Sunday’s matchup against the Arizona Cardinals holding on to the first overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, but fell two spots after winning the game on the road. Arizona went into the game with only two wins, so with the victory, they leapfrogged the Silver and Black, and both team sit behind San Francisco.

Though all three teams currently are 2-8 this season, the draft order is set by strength of schedule. The 49ers actually beat Oakland earlier in the year, but if the season ended tomorrow, they would pick first, followed by Arizona, and then the Raiders.
