Ranking the top-10 Oakland Raiders from this past decade
By Matt Holder
With the 2010s coming to a close, it’s time to take a look at the top-10 players to play for the Oakland Raiders during the time period.
We’ve reached the point of the year when it’s time to take a look back and reflect on what’s happened, and that includes the last ten years for the Oakland Raiders. This time around it’s even more special because a new decade is starting which means every website on the internet is required to throw together a list of the best during the time period.
Over here at Just Blog Baby, we’ve got the nostalgia covered with the top 10 Oakland Raiders from the last 10 years…believe it or not, there is some nostalgia in Oakland.
2010 to 2019 was not very kind to the Raiders as the team made the playoffs and finished with a winning record once. The organization also had five head coaches – six if you count Tony Sparano’s interim tenure – and it was the first decade that didn’t include a division title for the franchise. Even with the tough times, there are still plenty of players who are worth talking about and kept Raider Nation entertained.
The peak of the time period was easily 2016, Oakland’s lone postseason appearance. Most of the players on the following list participated on that team and revisiting that season seems like the perfect antidote for any Raider fan who is sad about the current season coming to a close. Hopefully, Las Vegas and the 2020s are kinder to the Silver and Black, but for now, we’ll remember the guys who made the last 10 years bearable.
If you think someone got left off the list or the order is wrong, feel free to share your opinion on social media or in the comments section. Raider Nation has never had a problem sharing what’s on their mind.
Now, let’s take a stroll down memory lane.
