For the third time in a few days, the Raiders had added a concept pick to their 2021 total. This has been added on appeal. They were docked for their sixth pick during the season for repeated COVID-19 infractions. They appealed the ruling and the NFL announced today that they won that appeal.
The pick they got back was Pick 200, but now that the Patriots forfeit a pick from the third round, the pick is actually the 199th pick. The returned pick brings their total to 8 picks in this design. Here’s what their draft order looks like now:
Round 1, pick No. 17
Round 2, pick No. 48
Round 3, dial No. 79 (via ARI *)
Round 3, pick No. 80
Round 4, pick 121
Round 5, dial No. 162 (via MIA **)
Round 5, dial No. 167 (via SEA ***
Round 6, dial No. 199
