As the NFL Draft continues to approach, the Las Vegas Raiders are moving right along. The Raiders have quickly improved their roster and will soon add quarterback Fernando Mendoza, along with nine additional draft picks. The Raiders’ entire draft class will be important, but Mendoza will lead the way.
Still, the Raiders have a plan and have shown this offseason that they will stick to it. As of now, that plan is to start veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins in Week 1 of the upcoming season. They are betting on Cousins being serviceable, at the very least, for a few games, if not more.
