The Las Vegas Raiders are being predicted to swing a monster trade in the NFL Draft.
The Las Vegas Raiders have some crucial decisions to make in the coming weeks that will surely determine their course over the next five years.
The Raiders currently own the sixth overall pick in the NFL Draft, which doesn’t exactly put them in a good spot to fill their biggest need: quarterback.
There has been some chatter that Shedeur Sanders could potentially fall to Las Vegas at No. 6, but it still seems unlikely given all of the quarterback-needy teams drafting ahead of the Raiders.
In order for Las Vegas to genuinely have a chance at either Sanders or Cam Ward, it will probably have to trade up, and that is exactly what Jacob Infante of Pro Football Network expects the Silver and Black to do.
Infante recently published a seven-round mock draft, and he has the Raiders swinging a deal with the Tennessee Titans to acquire the No. 1 overall pick. Las Vegas would send No. 6, its second-rounder, a 2026 first-rounder, a 2026 third-rounder and a 2027 second-round selection to the Titans.
The Raiders would then select Sanders with the top pick.
“The marriage of Shedeur Sanders and the Las Vegas Raiders feels too good to be true,” Infante wrote. “With Las Vegas in desperate need of an answer at quarterback, they move up a few spots to find their quarterback of the future.”
