Just a few weeks ago, it seemed like a lock that there would be multiple quarterback options available to the Raiders at No. 7. We were routinely seeing mock drafts with C.J. Stroud, Anthony Richardson, and Will Levis all being available to the Raiders with their first-round pick.
But this is just how the draft process goes. As we get closer to the draft, the value of quarterback rises. And before you know it, there will be three quarterbacks selected with the first three picks. So that begs the question; will the Raiders need to trade up in this year’s draft to get their quarterback?
