You do realize the Oakland team that dominated their division rivals 6-0 and the team that is 4-2 and very easily could have been 5-1 is comprised of drafted players. I would hardly say they are busts. Russell was a complete joke but Al Davis has scored on plenty of current draft picks.

These are are all drafted starters for the current Raiders drafted by Al Davis. Not depth players Starters.

DHB WR
Louis Murphy WR
Jacoby Ford WR
Denarius Moore WR
Chaz Schilens WR
Myers TE
Veldeer LT
Wisniewski LG
Campbell RG
DMC RB
Bush RB
Houston DT
McClain MLB
Branch SS
Huff FS
Chekwa CB
Van Dyke CB
Janokowski K
Lechler P

The Raiders have one of the youngest teams in the NFL and now they have a leader at QB.

You are right it is a good deal for the Raiders but not because they would burn the picks.
