Las Vegas is one of the worst teams in football, but where do they sit in the 2026 NFL Draft order? Believe it or not, there are a few teams worse than the Raiders.
Raiders 2026 NFL Draft pick
According to Tankatahon, the Raiders currently have the No.4 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. However, if the New York Giants beat the New England Patriots on Monday Night Football to cap off Week 13, Las Vegas will overtake New York for the third overall pick.

With quarterback Geno Smith severely disappointing in his first season with the Raiders, quarterback could be in play in Round 1 for Las Vegas. However, the franchise could also look to select a wide receiver or an impact defensive player with the selection.
We'll see where the Raiders end up in the draft order when it's all said and done in January. However, it's clear that this team needs a rebuild, and a top-five pick would be incredibly valuable to kickstart the process.
