The strongest Raiders lineup: 1970s

Drafting the top-rated player at every position from the 1970s Raiders board gives a team rating of 82.7 — good for an expected 11-6 season in the game, just short of the 88 team rating needed for a shot at 17-0. Against the 16-0 2007 Patriots in Boss mode, that five would win about 4.4% of the time. The thinnest Raiders board is the 2010s (70.0).
