Raiders trade up to land franchise quarterback in recent mock draft

The main objective this offseason for the Las Vegas Raiders is to finally find their long-term answer at the quarterback position.

Many possibilities exist for the Raiders in free agency and the trade market for a solution under center. That said, a rookie starter gives the Raiders serious cap flexibility over the next few years, giving general manager John Spytek a chance to upgrade several other positions. While top prospects such as Miami’s Cam Ward or Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders might be available with the Raiders’ sixth overall pick, it is more likely they will have to trade up to secure one of them.
