While the Raiders have quarterback depth in Minshew and O'Connell, they may still target their signal-caller of the future later this month. According to ESPN's Dan Graziano, Las Vegas is interested in making an aggressive move on opening night.
"The two that you hear the most strongly are the Minnesota Vikings and the Las Vegas Raiders," Graziano said on the March 28 episode of SportsCenter. "Those would be big jumps for both of those teams and it could really depend on what happens at the very top."
If a quarterback the Raiders love is still available at No. 3—and the New England Patriots aren't sold on taking him—Las Vegas could make its move.
It would be expensive, likely costing Las Vegas multiple 2024 picks and a future first-rounder, at a minimum. The fact that teams like Minnesota are also interested in jumping up means that the Raiders cannot expect a bargain.
However, if Maye, Daniels or McCarthy goes on to be a top-tier quarterback for the Raiders, Las Vegas will still look back believing it got a steal.
